The transition toward Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs) represents a major paradigm shift in vehicle design, transforming traditional hardware-centric systems into software-centric platforms capable of dynamic adaptation and continuous…
Memristor computing offers a route to low-energy edge AI, but device variability, sensitivity to operating conditions, and system-integration challenges can hinder deployment. Here we show that these limitations can be mitigated by using…
Enterprise data platforms face an enduring tension between domain self-service and holistic governance. The data mesh paradigm proposed decentralized domain ownership as a remedy, but pure implementations frequently underdeliver: teams…
Living mycelial filaments integrate chemical, optical, mechanical, thermal, and biological information via electrophysiological cellular trans-membrane potential. The challenge is to create a mycology interface that sustains metabolism,…
Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) shift neural computation from linear layers to learnable nonlinear edge functions, but implementing these nonlinearities efficiently in hardware remains an open challenge. Here we introduce a physical…
Pulse-level simulators are the lowest-level, most widely used abstraction layer for studying how quantum hardware responds to control signals, but they can be built on Hamiltonian models with very different fidelity and cost. This raises…
Liquid biopsy can detect tumor-derived biomarkers such as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), but ultra-low-fraction assays remain costly, slow, and difficult to scale. This motivates interest in intravascular in vivo sensing in the context of…
Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) vehicles are gaining traction in both the delivery drone market and passenger transportation, driving the development of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) systems. UAM seeks to alleviate road congestion in dense…
This study harnesses the embodied intelligence of mechanical metamaterials to sense and process environmental vibrations with minimal digital computation. Using physical reservoir computing (PRC), we turn the metamaterial and its nonlinear…
We address a novel staff allocation problem that arises in the organization of collaborators among multiple school sites and educational levels. The problem emerges from a real case study in a public school in Calabria, Italy, where staff…
Security systems demand continuous, cryptograph- ically robust identity verification without requiring subjects to carry physical tokens, smart cards, or dedicated hardware authenticators. This paper presents BIDO (Biometric Identity…
Human-Certified Module Repositories (HCMRs) are introduced in this work as a new architectural model for constructing trustworthy software in the era of AI-assisted development. As large language models increasingly participate in code…
Digital Twins (DTs) offer powerful tools for managing complex infrastructure systems, but their effectiveness is often limited by challenges in integrating unstructured knowledge. Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) bring new…
Wearable devices are widely used for continuous health monitoring, yet reliable sleep tracking on emerging platforms remains underexplored due to reliance on proprietary algorithms and device-specific activity representations. We present a…
The Boolean satisfiability (SAT) problem is a computationally challenging decision problem central to many industrial applications. For SAT problems in cryptanalysis, circuit design, and telecommunication, solutions can often be found more…
The increasing computational demand of AI workloads has intensified the need for energy-efficient in-memory and near-memory computing architectures, particularly because data movement often consumes significantly more energy than…
Biological neural networks (BNNs) have been established as a powerful and adaptive substrate that offer the potential for incredibly energy and data efficient information processing with distinct learning mechanisms. Yet a core challenge to…
Analog content-addressable memories (aCAMs) based on memristors provide a promising pathway toward energy-efficient large-scale associative computing for Edge AI and embedded intelligence applications. They have been successfully applied to…
Leveraging the high density and energy efficiency of Compute-In-Memory (CIM) crossbar-based Deep Neural Network (DNN) accelerators requires optimal Design Space Exploration (DSE), which becomes increasingly challenging as complex models for…
Computational data governance aims to make the enforcement of governance policies and legal obligations more efficient and reliable. Recent advances in natural language processing and agentic AI offer ways to improve how organizations share…
