Over the decades there have been many denominations coined to classify computer systems, usually when they got used in different fields or technological improvements caused significant shifts. While ...

In January we gave NVIDIA’s CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) software tools that allows C programmers to use multiple high-performance GPU cards to perform massively parallel computations ...

Increasingly complex applications such as artificial intelligence require ever more powerful and power-hungry computers to run. Optical computing is a proposed solution to increase speed and power ...

Unlike other similar methods, it also allows for logical gates to be put in parallel rather than in a series, which makes the system analogous to parallel processing in classical computers, leading ...
