Chemical process simulations are crucial for optimizing industrial operations, but they often require significant ...

A study reports the realization of a parallel computer based on designed nanofabricated channels explored in a massively parallel fashion by protein filaments propelled by molecular motors.

A line of engineering research seeks to develop computers that can tackle a class of challenges called combinatorial ...

After all, the human brain is itself a massively parallel computer; writing programs that can operate in parallel is the key to making computers that seem more like us and less like machines.

Quentin Stout and Christiane Jablonowski from the University of Michigan gave a nice introduction to parallel computing on Sunday. They covered everything from architecture to APIs to the politics ...

Light-based computer may parallelize 10-megabit computations Pixelate light, let it interfere, obtain solution—size limited by budget.
