The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...

The race to understand the brain has just crossed a threshold that once belonged to science fiction. Using one of the world’s fastest supercomputers, researchers have assembled a digital mouse cortex ...

China is no longer content to dominate supercomputing on the ground. It is now wiring thousands of satellites into a single, ...

Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...

A quantum computer and conventional supercomputer that work together could become an invaluable tool for understanding chemicals. A collaboration between IBM and the Japanese scientific institute ...

Supercomputers are unsung heroes—unless you're a nerd like we are, in which case they're probably at least a little bit sung. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a new ...

A few years back, Google made waves when it claimed that some of its hardware had achieved quantum supremacy, performing operations that would be effectively impossible to simulate on a classical ...
