| 45nm and 65nm Based Quad-Core Intel Xeon Microprocessors to Provide the Grunt for State of the Art IBM, Intel and Cisco Open High-Performance Computing Center
|
| IBM, Intel and Cisco announced today that they have opened a High-Performance Computing (HPC) Center, expanding IBM's existing HPC facility here. The expanded state-of-the-art HPC center will offer customers, business partners and independent software vendors the ability to test and benchmark analytic software, engineering, aerospace design and other high-performance applications.

| Accidental Discovery Could Enable Development Of Faster Computers
|
| Physicists at UC Riverside have made an accidental discovery in the lab that has potential to change how information in computers can be transported or stored. Dependent on the "spin" of electrons, a property electrons possess that makes them behave like tiny magnets, the discovery could help in the development of spin-based semiconductor technology such as ultrahigh-speed computers.

| Maximising Copper Computer Chip Connections for High Speed Computing
|
| As computers become more complex, the demand increases for more connections between computer chips and external circuitry such as a motherboard or wireless card. And as the integrated circuits become more advanced, maximizing their performance requires better connections that operate at higher frequencies with less loss.

| Scientists Develop 16-bit Parallel Molecular Nanoprocessor
|
| One of the most intriguing possibilities of nanotechnology is in its ability to create molecular constructs that can work autonomously to perform specific tasks or functions. An artificial flagellum, powered by a nanomotor, attached to a vesicle loaded with drugs, delivering medications to a distant target, is our golden dream of the nanofuture.
