Research carried out Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) which reanalysed public genetic data using innovative computational methods has enabled the identification of new genetic markers associated with an increased risk to develop Type 2 Diabetes (T2D)
Scientists from the Technical University of Munich (TUM), led by Professor Helmut Krcmar, have developed a new dynamic certification system for cloud services as part of the ‘Next Generation Certification’ (NGCert) consortium
Some 44 per cent of life science professionals are using or experimenting with AI and deep learning, while 94 per cent expect an increase in use of machine learning within two years
We are proud to announce that Lockheed Martin has selected VOLTA, Esteco’s collaborative engineering software platform, to advance multidisciplinary design optimisation (MDO) technologies as part of the EXPEDITE Program
For research and development (R&D) organisations, the rise of instrument and process automation is leading to a phenomenal increase in the amount, variety and complexity of scientific data that is gathered
sciNote, a free open source electronic lab notebook (ELN), has announced that it has incorporated artificial intelligence capabilities into its electronic lab notebook
After more than 150 issues, the print edition of Scientific Computing World has undergone a long-overdue revamp
Elsevier has announced it is donating its Unified Data Model (UDM) to The Pistoia Alliance, a global, not-for-profit alliance that works to lower barriers to innovation in life sciences research.
Researchers and students at Florida Institute of Technology will be able to benefit from a partnership with Siemens that will allow the university to offer students hands-on learning experiences to better equip them for future STEM careers
A survey carried out by Elsevier’s Reaxys team found that chemists may need to gain more experience with emerging technologies to help drive innovation and career progression within the field of chemistry
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.
