It isn’t hard to think that Jeff Bezos left his role as Amazon.com’s CEO to enjoy a slower life filled with yachting and celebrity parties. But he would most certainly object to that characterization.

Cracking quantum computing isn’t a matter of upgrading existing computers. It’s an entirely separate approach to computing that relies on the principles of quantum physics. “A fighter jet is not a ...

What if the most complex problems plaguing industries today—curing diseases, optimizing global supply chains, or even securing digital communication—could be solved in a fraction of the time it takes ...

No device is an island: Your daily computational needs depend on more than just the microprocessors inside your computer or phone. Our modern world relies on “distributed computing,” which shares the ...

Quantum computing is getting there. After years of slow but steady development to create a useful quantum computer that can outperform classical machines, we’re still squarely in the “noisy ...

Although quantum computing is a nascent field, there are plenty of key moments that defined it over the last few decades as scientists strive to create machines that can solve impossible problems.

You don’t need 0s and 1s to perform computations, and in some cases it’s better to avoid them. Computing today is almost entirely digital. The vast informational catacombs of the internet, the ...

With the rise of AI, energy and heat efficiency have once again become pressing concerns for companies that use and build chips. The skyrocketing demand for hardware to run AI models is dragging up ...

He invented DRAM, the technology that allowed for the faster and higher-capacity memory storage that is the basis for modern computing. By Steve Lohr Robert H. Dennard, an engineer who invented the ...

67-year-programming language ranks in the top 10 of the Tiobe index of programming language popularity for two months running. Fortran’s return to the top 10 in Tiobe’s monthly index of language ...

In 1981, physicist Richard Feynman first theorized the creation of quantum computers that harnessed the principles of quantum physics to process calculations that would take standard computers ...
