Way, way back in the day, “computing” was the domain of analog circuits. No, they couldn’t add up columns of numbers, but they could solve complex differential and other equations, and did so fairly ...

All-optical image processing has been viewed as a promising technique for its high computation speed and low power ...

China’s optical AI hardware demonstrates massive efficiency leaps in lab tests, challenging conventional GPU performance in ...

With the exponential growth in demand for high-speed data transmission, the 5G system infrastructure, despite its impressive peak data rate of 10 gigabits per second, is increasingly inadequate for ...

Driven by the global wave of informatization, the real-time transmission, efficient processing, and intelligent analysis of massive data have become ...

Harvard SEAS researchers have created an electro-optic digital-to-analog converter that bridges electronic and photonic signals for efficient photonic computing and signal processing. The device is ...

China’s latest optical AI chip is being pitched as a generational leap, with researchers claiming performance roughly 100 ...

You don’t need 0s and 1s to perform computations, and in some cases it’s better to avoid them. Computing today is almost entirely digital. The vast informational catacombs of the internet, the ...

In the discussion following Brian Bailey's blog, Operations per Joule, the subject of quantum computing came up. I posted a couple of links, one regarding a potential type of optical quantum computer ...
