A new study has demonstrated that researchers trying to model a range of processes could use the power and capabilities of a particular XBox chip as a much cheaper alternative to other forms of ...

A study by a University of Warwick researcher has found that the processor in the XBox games console could provide a much cheaper way of performing parallel processing. Dr Simon Scarle, from the ...

We covered work with a superthin computer just two molecules thick can solve complex problems and, somewhat like the human brain, can evolve to improve and perform many operations simultaneously. This ...

The dream of building self-regulating computer systems using parallel processing was not new in the 1960s when "2001: A Space Odyssey" acquainted millions of us with HAL. Computer makers have been ...

Most computers in the world tend to do one thing and then move on to the next thing, a series of sequential tasks. For decades, computer scientists have struggled to get machines to do multiple things ...

Finnish startup Flow Computing Oy today revealed seemingly outlandish plans to transform the chip industry with a new Parallel Processing Unit that it says can boost the performance of any central ...
