Computers currently deal with processing and memory separately, resulting in a speed and power ‘bottleneck’ caused by the need to continually move data around. This is totally unlike anything in biology, for example in human brains, where no real distinction is made between memory and computation. To perform these two functions simultaneously the University of …

China’s GPU supercomputers, like the Tianhe-1A, are just a small part of the investments that China is making in science and technology sectors – especially the high-performance computing (HPC) space. Tianhe-1A, the world’s fastest supercomputer based on NVIDIA Tesla GPUs, has proven that it is a true scientific tool. Scientists at the Institute of Process …
Woodward, Brito, Mahood, White and Paul March have been trying to verify Mach Effect for propulsion over the last twenty years. Paul March explains – Hector Brito’s battery powered MLT like devices, which were completely self contained, have also observed generated vxB forces on the order of tens of micro-Newtons where none should have been …
There are some people who are saying that the Hiroshima long term radiation study has flaws in it They referred to a 16 pager that claims issues with the study. The counter references are mostly not in any peer reviewed journals. So if the claim of improper cohorts has some validity there is still the …
