Enabling knowledge creation in data-driven science November 21, 2012 - 5:38am
Extracting new knowledge from big data science is such a problem that projects are now underway which may transform research publishing and find relationships too complex for the human mind to see alone.
World’s second most powerful supercomputer goes straight for the heart November 14, 2012 - 5:40am
The Sequoia supercomputer has simulated the human heart at an unprecedented scale, a breakthrough for the use of computational medicine by doctors to prevent sudden cardiac death.
Finger-nail-sized hard drives just require some smoothing November 7, 2012 - 8:33am
Computer hard drive storage 15 times denser than today may be closer, due to discovery that surface-roughness height of 10 atoms is limit at which self- assembly can successfully occur.
Satellites, servers, and story-telling help disaster rapid response November 7, 2012 - 8:33am
When natural disasters and human conflicts strike, who are you going to call? Geographic information systems analysts, that's who. They provide a rapid frontline service to turn satellite imagery into information that helps internally displaced...
The race to net-energy-gain fusion October 24, 2012 - 4:45am
The latest computer simulations show that nuclear fusion reactions which produce more power than is put in are just around the corner - but recent experiments have called into question the accuracy of these computer models.
