Back before the rise of client-server computing, one of the holy grails of computer science was distributed massively parallel computing. Under this architecture, multiple types of computers — ...

Evoking the old Xgrid days, a new project connects Mac Studios together with Thunderbolt cables, and uses them in tandem for massively parallel computing tasks. A very long time ago, I was involved in ...

A new technical paper titled “Computing high-degree polynomial gradients in memory” was published by researchers at UCSB, HP Labs, Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH, and RWTH Aachen University.

Although quantum processors exist today, they are still a long way off from becoming practical replacements for classical computers. This is due to many practical considerations, not the least of ...

Over the decades there have been many denominations coined to classify computer systems, usually when they got used in different fields or technological improvements caused significant shifts. While ...

Unlike other similar methods, it also allows for logical gates to be put in parallel rather than in a series, which makes the system analogous to parallel processing in classical computers, leading ...

At the GTC 2025 conference, Nvidia announced its plans for a new, Boston-based Nvidia Accelerated Quantum Research Center or NVAQC, designed to integrate quantum hardware with AI supercomputers.
