Computing devices are vital to all areas of modern life and permeate every aspect of our society. The ubiquity of computing and our reliance on it has been accelerated and amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. From education to work…
The advent of chiplet technology introduces cutting-edge opportunities for constructing highly heterogeneous platforms with specialized accelerators. However, the HPC community currently lacks expertise in hardware development, a gap that…
Rapid advances in computing technology over the past few decades have spurred two extraordinary phenomena in science: large-scale and high-throughput data collection coupled with the creation and implementation of complex statistical…
Concurrency, the art of doing many things at the same time is slowly becoming a science. It is very difficult to master, yet it arises all over modern computing systems, both when the communication medium is shared memory and when it is by…
In this research notebook in the four-part, quantum computation and applications, quantum computation and algorithms, quantum communication protocol, and universal quantum computation for quantum engineers, researchers, and scientists, we…
Computer Architecture, broadly, involves optimizing hardware and software for current and future processing systems. Although there are several other top venues to publish Computer Architecture research, including ASPLOS, HPCA, and MICRO,…
High performance computing (HPC) has driven collaborative science discovery for decades. Exascale computing platforms, currently in the design stage, will be deployed around 2022. The next generation of supercomputers is expected to utilize…
Victor Hugo's timeless observation, "Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come", resonates today as Quantum Computing, once only a dream of a physicist, stands at the threshold of reality with the potential to revolutionise…
Today computers have become an integral part of life. However, most people's interaction with computers in on end-user-level. Computer engineers are needed while designing and developing a structure of computer systems, software and…
This article provides an overview of the history, theoretical basis, and different implementations of quantum computers. In Fall 2018, four MIT faculty -- Isaac Chuang, Dirk Englund, Aram Harrow, and William Oliver -- at the forefront of…
High-throughput computing projects require the solution of large numbers of problems. In many cases, these problems can be solved on desktop PCs, or can be broken down into independent "PC-solvable" sub-problems. In such cases, the projects…
This article deals with the early development of preprint communication in high-energy physics, specifically with how preprint communication was formalized in the early 1960s at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). It…
In a highly multilingual and multicultural environment such as in the European Commission with soon over twenty official languages, there is an urgent need for text analysis tools that use minimal linguistic knowledge so that they can be…
Although self-replicating programs and viruses have existed since the 1960s and 70s, Elk Cloner was the first virus to circulate among personal computers in the wild. Despite its historical significance, it received comparatively little…
The John von Neumann Institute for Computing (NIC) at the Research Centre Juelich, Germany, is one of the leading supercomputing centres in Europe. Founded as a national centre in the mid-eighties it now provides more and more resources to…
Although there was an early experiment in the 1960s with the central distribution of paper preprints in the biomedical sciences, these sciences have not been early adopters of electronic preprint servers. Some barriers to the development of…
The primordial model of quantum computation was introduced over thirty years ago and the first quantum algorithms have appeared for over twenty years. Yet the exact architectures for quantum computer seem foreign to an undergraduate student…
Building a useful quantum computer is a grand science and engineering challenge, currently pursued intensely by teams around the world. In the 1980s, Richard Feynman and Yuri Manin observed independently that computers based on quantum…
The world is passing through a major revolution called the information revolution, in which information and knowledge is becoming available to people in unprecedented amounts wherever and whenever they need it. Those societies which fail to…
Developments in pervasive computing introduced a new world of computing where networked processors embedded and distributed in everyday objects communicating with each other over wireless links. Computers in such environments work in the…
