The healthcare industry is steadily realising the value offered by Big Data solutions, particularly in “-omics” research and medical record mining. However, current investments are focused on serving immediate needs of the investing stakeholders, which often makes them siloed and incrementally beneficial, as opposed to a strategic organisational redesign of the data strategy that provides exponential returns on investment.

Wind River is pleased to announce availability of the VxWorks Real Time Operating System (RTOS) client for the IBM Watson IoT platform. This is part of the IBM/Wind River collaboration to advance IoT deployments for industrial customers with new 'edge-to-cloud' recipes designed to simplify and accelerate the development of smart connected devices. This integration marks the first in a series of VxWorks clients for cloud service providers to follo...

Developing technology and architectures, international project for mimicking neural behavior in integrated circuits will review creating neuromorphic circuits and bring together the device and design communities for the promising field 12th September in Lausanne, Switzerland.

IBM scientists have created randomly spiking neurons using phase-change materials to store and process data. This demonstration marks a significant step forward in the development of energy-efficient, ultra-dense integrated neuromorphic technologies for applications in cognitive computing.Inspired by the way the biological brain functions, scientists have theorised for decades that it should be possible to imitate the versatile computational capa...

The Manufacturer Smart Factory Expo, Hall 2, NEC, 2 – 3 November, the UK’s only dedicated exhibition in response to Industry 4.0. Aimed at business leaders in UK manufacturing the expo will showcase the best solution providers and technology offerings for manufacturers to adopt the relevant tools and knowledge to drive business growth.

IBM scientists have developed a lab-on-a-chip technology that can, for the first time, separate biological particles at the nanoscale and could enable physicians to detect diseases such as cancer before symptoms appear.As reported today in the journal Nature Nanotechnology, the IBM team's results show size-based separation of bioparticles down to 20 nm in diameter, a scale that gives access to important particles such as DNA, viruses and exosomes...

Alexander Santiago, a researcher in the Department of Polymer Science and Technology at the UPV/EHU's Faculty of Chemistry, has developed three types of functional coatings that are resistant to microorganisms and have self-cleaning and anti-reflective properties. By modifying the surface of paints he has managed to vary their properties or their possible applications at a lower cost in comparison with the materials existing on the market.

Maker of the all-in-one predictive analytics software platform Dataiku Data Science Studio (DSS), have announced the release of Dataiku DSS 3.1. Dataiku have designed it to add additional external integrations, an improved UX interface, five visual machine learning engines, and now have the ability to enable transformations in Apache Spark’s native language, Scala.

Princeton University researchers have built a computer chip that promises to boost performance of data centres that lie at the core of online services from email to social media.Data centres - essentially giant warehouses packed with computer servers - enable cloud-based services, such as Gmail and Facebook, as well as store the staggeringly voluminous content available via the internet.

An international team using resources at the Center for Functional Nanomaterials tailored extremely small wires that carry light and electrons. They devised an approach that lets them tailor the wires through exquisite control over the structures at the nanoscale. New structures could open up a potential path to a wide range of smaller, lighter, or more efficient devices.
