Penn Engineers have developed a novel design for solar-powered data centers that will orbit Earth and could realistically ...

Until now, designing complex metamaterials with specific mechanical properties required large and costly experimental and simulation datasets. The method enables ...

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was recently granted to David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper, renowned for their pioneering works in protein design.

What if the huge design space for data-driven software could be efficiently mapped and explored in order to have tailor-made, optimized solutions? Researchers from Harvard combine analytical models, ...

There’s tremendous buzz and a fair bit of confusion concerning artificial intelligence (AI), but it’s not oversimplifying to say that what AI boils down to is data. Health-care facilities, as one of ...

Seventy years after the invention of a data structure called a hash table, theoreticians have found the most efficient possible configuration for it. About 70 years ago, an engineer at IBM named Hans ...

At its heart, data modeling is about understanding how data flows through a system. Just as a map can help us understand a city’s layout, data modeling can help us understand the complexities of a ...

Densification takes different forms; as every city or site is unique, it requires a tailored approach. At the same time, we need to maximize the scarce land that’s available in our existing cities to ...
