Storage, computation, and communication are the three pillars of modern information technology, with computation being the central aspect. The von Neumann architecture, based on the Turing machine ...

According to computational complexity theory, mathematical problems have different levels of difficulty in the context of their solvability. While a classical computer can solve some problems (P) in ...

A new digital system allows operations on a chip to run in parallel, so an AI program can arrive at the best possible answer more quickly.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — “You see, nature is unpredictable. How do you expect to predict it with a computer?” said American physicist Richard Feynman before computer scientists at a conference in 1981.

Researchers demonstrate how skyrmions can be used for future computer concepts that are closer to how the human brain works. Working group led by physicist Professor Ulrich Nowak at the University of ...

Scientists have developed a mathematical description of what happens within tiny magnets as they fluctuate between states when an electric current and magnetic field are applied. Their findings could ...

The phenomenal success of our integrated circuits managed to obscure an awkward fact: they’re not always the best way to solve problems. The features of modern computers—binary operations, separated ...

As the barriers to CPU scaling have risen with each successive node shrink, the number of scientists looking for alternate methods of driving higher performance and/or saving power has also steadily ...
