Computer scientists at UC Davis, Maynooth University and Caltech have created DNA molecules that can self-assemble by carrying out a Boolean logic computation. Highlighted in green is the ...

There comes a moment in every physicist’s life when they think the unthinkable: I wish I were an engineer. I suspect this thought crossed the minds of the 14-odd physicists involved in creating a key ...

The memristor array chip plugs into a custom computer chip, forming the first programmable memristor computer. The team demonstrated that it could run three standard types of machine learning ...

Researchers have developed a small quantum computer that is capable of running multiple algorithms. The breakthrough hinges on the ability to program quantum bits or 'qubits' with software, and paves ...

The Raspberry Pi has been a huge success story for Britain, giving millions of people an affordable way to tinker and learn with pocket-sized hardware. Now, the BBC is hoping to make a similar impact ...

Five on a line: an ion trap with four segmented blade electrodes used to trap a linear chain of atomic ions for quantum-information processing. Each ion is addressed optically for individual control ...

Using a few ultracold ions, intense lasers and some electrodes, researchers have built the first programmable quantum computer. The new system, described in a paper to be published in Nature Physics, ...

Scientists engineered a high-tech computer that can run several simple programs by harnessing the relationships between tiny particles, or quantum mechanics, according to a new report Wednesday. The ...

In just a few days time on February 15, it will be 75 years since the deployment of the first all-electronic, programmable computer at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, called ENIAC, ...
