ARM and University College London (UCL) have launched an educational kit, to help students develop their engineering skills, focusing on the Internet of Things (IoT). The hope is to encourage young engineers to remain in STEM related careers
The oil and gas industry depends on simulation. Robert Roe explores how the technique can optimise the integrity of structures in extreme environments
Regions that have a high population -- and hence a high demand for energy - may be suitable for wind energy production, despite having a low average wind speed according to research using data analysis and graphing software
Companies and countries alike must learn to master big data, or they will find themselves out-thought, out-flanked and out-dated, according to a new report
The MathJax Consortium has released MathJax v2.5-beta, which is focused on improving rendering speed and MathML support
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software is coming of age, highlighted by a report from market researchers Frost and Sullivan and a conference on the topic to be held in February. Robert Roe reports
The potential effect of flood waters can now be assessed more quickly, due to a new feature for Visdom, a Visual Analysis System, made possible by funding from the Austrian Science Fund FWF
Tom Wilkie reports on the marriage of magic and Matlab in motor car design
Robert Roe looks at how software can help train the engineers of tomorrow
Engineers want to work on designing new aircraft, so getting software packages to talk to each other is critical, as Robert Roe reports
Elsevier and ExactCure recently announced a collaboration to develop and offer to hospitals – without charge – drug-specific exposure models for 20 already approved medicines that are being tested as potential treatments for Covid-19.
With the world’s focus on the COVID-19 pandemic, LIMS providers are working to develop solutions tailored to assist in the testing and management of virus samples.
Researchers at Harvard Medical School (HMS) have released an open source drug discovery platform, VirtualFlow, that harnesses supercomputing power to screen potentially billions of small organic compound structures in parallel, in the hunt for promising new drug molecules.
When designing a component or system, where do you start? In days gone by, designers would literally go back to the drawing board, using their experience and expertise to develop a new concept.
Effective utilisation of computing tools is critical to both AI and HPC research, with recent projects in both fields highlighting the scientific benefit of carefully managing resources.
Advances in computer vision combined with AI computing are helping pathologists to more accurately identify subtypes of cancer - leading to better treatments for patients, explains Dan Ruderman.
