1+ day, 9+ hour ago   (604+ words) Modern supersonic missiles and launch vehicles are engineered to be extraordinarily slender, a design choice that slices through aerodynamic drag and lets the vehicle sprint through the atmosphere at remarkable speeds. Yet that elegance comes at a hidden price....

1+ day, 13+ hour ago   (652+ words) For half a century, the relentless shrinking of computer chips has been governed by a simple rule: make everything smaller, faster and more efficient. Yet one component has quietly become a bottleneck that threatens the entire trajectory of modern electronics....

3+ week, 5+ day ago   (728+ words) UTICA, New York—SUNY Polytechnic Institute has received a $61.9 million contract from the U.S. Department of Defense to develop artificial intelligence systems designed to help the U.S. Army analyze complex military operations, anticipate emerging threats, and make faster decisions across…...

3+ week, 6+ day ago   (514+ words) Oxide semiconductor transistors could be on the verge of a major technological breakthrough after researchers introduced a digital twin platform designed to solve one of the most persistent problems in electronic materials: improving performance without sacrificing long-term reliability. The platform,…...

1+ mon, 1+ day ago   (707+ words) Artificial intelligence is pushing semiconductor technology toward a physical limit: the more computing power engineers pack into a system, the more difficult it becomes to move data between chips and remove the heat generated by that activity....

1+ mon, 6+ day ago   (522+ words) New York has switched on a new academic supercomputer designed to give researchers across the state access to artificial intelligence hardware previously available mainly to technology companies and elite research laboratories....
