Latest Technology and Gadget
Modern science generates a lot of data — amounts far beyond the ability of humans to process on their own. This is why scientists often rely on computational methods such as machine learning — a type of artificial intelligence to crunch big data. In fact, it’s pretty commonplace today, and is even used in applications…
Developing the tools and technologies of tomorrow… requires hard work today. Computer and information research scientists invent new approaches to computing technology and improve the use of existing technology. They study complex computing problems, and are often at the forefront of solving them for business, science, medicine, and other fields. These research scientists build algorithms,…
Brian: Hello, I’m Professor Brian Cox. Welcome to People of Science. Jo, could you introduce yourself and your work. Joanna: I’m Jo Haigh. I’m Professor of Atmospheric Physics at Imperial College London and also co-director of the Gratham Institute on Climate Change. My work concerns the processes that contribute to why the atmosphere and climate…
Distributed computing, a relatively recent development to computation that actually changes the way in which we approach a lot of problems. What was once basically impossible is now actually attainable with relative ease. Iin today’s episodem we’ll take a look at some definitions and concepts behind distributed computing and then we’ll move on to some…
♪♪♪ Sometimes science means looking for the extremes — the biggest, smallest, oldest, and furthest. 2019 was no different. Here are three of the science-est things we found this year. First up, in June, scientists published a letter in the journal Nature announcing they’d found microscopic fossils of what might be the world’s oldest fungus….
– Dude! So this, my friends, is the laptop that started the channel. Well, I guess not this specific one, but this model. This is the Aspire 3680 from our good friends at Acer. So, one of the fun things about this laptop, and when I say fun, I mean not fun at all, is…
We’re going to talk about Can we compute with art? can paintings compute and it’s it’s a broader theme in terms of What are the links between physics and chemistry and biology and computing and indeed art? So I worked with somebody called Linda Jackson who’s a local nottingham artist She’d started to play with…
We often talk about how traditional computing is reaching its limit–there’s a threshold we can’t move past without making some seriously big changes to the way we structure computers. One of those exciting ways is by making physical computers a little more like human brains. We introduced this concept in more detail here, but a…
This this two-factor authentication; so basically to get in I need my card and then I need a PIN and this is a scrambler pad so basically every time that you look at that the numbers are in a different order. This is the High Performance Computing facility for the university of Nottingham. SEAN>>What do…
[Music] Hi, thanks for tuning into Singularity Prosperity. This video is the first in a multi-part series discussing computing, in this video we’ll be discussing the evolution of computing – more specifically, the evolution of the technologies that have brought upon the modern computing era. The purpose of this video is so we can appreciate…
