Robert Roe reports on Elastic Storage, a scalable, high-performance data and file management solution developed by IBM in collaboration with researchers operating the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) in Germany
The growing importance of high-performance computing (HPC) to modelling and engineering was highlighted this week by the award of a $1 million grant from the US Department of Energy (DOE)
In his final report from the European Altair Technology Conference (EATC), Robert Roe discusses the aeronautical industrys role in developing simulation technology
New software tools will help improve collaboration between engineers and thus foster innovation and overcome constraints
In his third report from the European Altair Technology Conference (EATC), Robert Roe learns how software is being used to encourage young engineers
In his second report from the European Altair Technology Conference (EATC), Robert Roe discovers the value of simulation-driven design to manufacturers in the automotive industry.
In the first of a series of reports from the Altair European Technology Conference 2014, Robert Roe discovers how ESAComp software is being used to design the European Space Agency's Solar Orbiter, due for launch in 2017
The not-for-profit Open PHACTS Foundation (OPF) has announced its first three members - GlaxoSmithKline, Janssen and Roche. These new members will steer the future of the successor organisation to the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI)- funded Open PHACTS project
Teaching staff at the National Institute of Applied Sciences in Lyon (INSA-Lyon), one of the leading engineering schools in Europe, have implemented Maple T.A. to administer student tests
ESTECO, a provider of numerical optimisation solutions, will be a technical partner of Sir Ben Ainslies bid to win the Americas Cup: the 163-year old trophy that has never been won by Great Britain
Through the use of cutting-edge simulation, software engineers are developing innovative new wind energy technology and increasing the efficiency and durability of wind turbines. The drive to find sustainable energy sources is one of the most pressing concerns facing society.
Dame Sally Davies, the outgoing Chief Medical Officer for England, pulls no punches when it comes to the threat of antibiotic resistance. She has called for an ‘Extinction Rebellion-type’ response to it, describing it as ‘catastrophic’ and ‘as dangerous as climate change’.
The Pistoia Alliance has been pioneering initiatives that will support organisations as they work to enable and engage Fair (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) principles of data management and stewardship in their organisations.
Achronix and Bittware collaborate on a new FPGA designed for cloud, AI and machine learning applications, writes Robert Roe
By increasing the energy efficiency of a supercomputer scientists can save huge amounts of money over the total lifecycle of the system. With ever-increasing core counts and increasingly large supercomputers, the drive for increased computational power comes at a cost.
