Getting CPU-intensive computations to run faster used to mean buying a new computer. Not any more, reports Kenneth Shankland and Tom Griffin
Although they derive from redundant Victorian prototypes, fuel cells are sometimes regarded as a power source for the future. But first, as Ray Girvan describes, there is a lot of scientific computing to be done
The trend in laboratory informatics is towards integration of software with instruments and with enterprise resource planning software. Different vendors have different ways of achieving this end and it has driven take-overs and mergers, according to Peter Rees
Once the research has been done, the report has to be written. It used to be boring, but now Felix Grant has found software that makes it bliss
Sophia Ktori discusses the implementation of data standards for laboratory informatics
The advent of cloud-based systems and Software as a Service (SaaS) platforms are changing the way that laboratory management software is implemented
The drive for exascale and the power envelopes set for these systems, requires HPC hardware and software developers to think outside the box to develop more energy efficient technologies to support exascale systems.
With new technologies on the horizon and increasingly competitive products available to the HPC community there is an increased choice in the HPC processor market.
