When given a target functionality, usually a particular pattern of heat conductivity, this algorithm can slowly hone in on the best possible design. The researchers refer to this as "inverse design," ...

We are used to heat flowing from hot objects to cool ones, and never the other way round, but now researchers have found it is possible to pull off this trick in the strange realm of quantum mechanics ...

The key idea is that temperature differences act as inputs, and the resulting heat diffusion produces the output ...

A University of Houston professor has taken on the global challenge of reducing the staggering amount of heat generated in ...

Data center servers, powerful smartphones, and your computer's motherboard have one thing in common. When these devices get too hot, their performance takes a hit, and we can't have that. That's why ...

A University of Houston professor has taken on the global challenge of reducing the staggering amount of heat generated in artificial intelligence data centers. Hadi Ghasemi, J. Willard Gibbs ...

This cat was born looking permanently unimpressed. Thanks to some wild fur markings, this cat appears to have thick eyebrows and a subtle mustache, giving it a face full of expression without ever ...

Canaan Inc., an international cryptocurrency mining company, has announced a new proof-of-concept partnership with Bitforest Investment. Over two years, the pilot program will recover heat from its ...

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated a surprising new way to compute—by using heat instead ...

Proof of concept uses passive components to redirect heat across a chip, allowing temperature patterns to be used for data processing.

Computer science is the study and development of the protocols required for automated processing and manipulation of data. This includes, for example, creating algorithms for efficiently searching ...
