AI teaching assistant fools students
College of Computing Professor Ashok Goel teaches Knowledge Based Artificial Intelligence (KBAI) every semester. It’s a core requirement of Georgia Tech’s online master’s of science in computer science programme. And every time he offers it, Goel estimates, his 300 or so students post roughly 10,000 messages in the online forums - far too many enquiries for him and his eight Teaching Assistants (TAs) to handle.
CAPI enabled FPGA accelerator cards suit POWER8 processors
BittWare has announced an OpenPOWER CAPI Developer's Kit for its Xilinx FPGA-enabled accelerator cards. Providing a fast, efficient way to connect the Xilinx All Programmable FPGA to a CAPI-enabled IBM POWER8 system, the developer's kit includes the FPGA accelerator card, IBM Power Service Layer (PSL) IP to provide the connection to the POWER8 chip, CAPI host support library, and an example CAPI design.
Scientists can now manufacture their own molecules
Scientists at ETH Zurich and IBM Research Zurich have developed a technique that enables for the first time the manufacture of complexly structured tiny objects joining together microspheres. The objects have a size of just a few micrometres and are produced in a modular fashion, making it possible to program their design in such a way that each component exhibits different physical properties.
First round of speakers for DOES16 announced
IT Revolution has announced its first round of speakers for DevOps Enterprise Summit London (DOES16). Tickets for the conference, which is scheduled for June 30th-July 1st at the Hilton London Metropole, can be found here.
Unlocking the value of cross-facility data sets
According to an industry survey by IBM, two thirds of mid-sized companies have already implemented - or are currently considering - a cloud based storage model for their organisation. The analytic advantages of cloud computing in industry are no secret, in fact, 70% of these cloud-using respondents said they were actively pursuing cloud-based analytics to gleam greater insights and efficiency in order to achieve business goals. By Martyn Williams...
Electrically conductive Graphene ink enables printing
A presentation that describes the development of roll-to-roll gravure printing of biosensors based upon electrically conductive graphene structures and adherence proteins has been described by Haydale. The described development was a result of a project undertaken by a consortium of organisations** lead by the Frauhofer Institut fur Biomedizinische Technik (IBMT) and involving Haydale in the development of biocompatible and electrically conductiv...
Scientists invent a thermometer for the nanoscale
The IBM lab responsible for inventing the scanning tunneling microscope and the atomic force microscope has invented another critical tool for helping us understand the nanoworld.Accurately measuring the temperature of objects at the nanoscale has been challenging scientists for decades. Current techniques are not accurate and they typically generate artifacts, limiting their reliability.
Brain-inspired supercomputer allows for deeper learning developement
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has announced it will receive a first-of-a-kind brain-inspired supercomputing platform for deep learning developed by IBM Research. Based on a breakthrough neurosynaptic computer chip called IBM TrueNorth, the scalable platform will process the equivalent of 16m neurons and 4bn synapses and consume the energy equivalent of a hearing aid battery – a mere 2.5W of power.
LEGIC partners with IBM for secure IoT solutions
LEGIC Identsystems has become an IBM Business Partner and joined with the company to provide an eco-system for end-to-end encrypted IoT solutions. The LEGIC security portfolio and IBM with its IBM Watson IoT Platform and Bluemix offer a scalable and aligned eco-system with security elements for IoT applications and services.
Power of Cloud + WSN in practice at OpenStack Summit
Representatives of Czech companies involved in Cloud Computing and wireless sensor networking will give a keynote speech at OpenStack Summit in Austin, 25th to 29th April 2016. The hi-tech companies tcp cloud, MICRORISC and Protronix associated in the IQRF Alliance will collect data from CO2 sensors located around the whole venue and provide them for a summit hackathon.
