We are living in an increasingly interconnected world – not just in the number of digital devices, but also in how actions can have dozens, if not hundreds or more consequences that cascade through a ...

A novel parallel computing framework for chemical process simulation has been proposed by researchers from the East China University of Science and Technology and the University of Sheffield. This ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Researchers say it's impossible to use algorithmic computation to generate everything in our universe. The possibility that our ...

For more than a quarter of a century since its release, 'The Matrix' has fueled modern fears that life is not all it seems. But according to a scientist, the classic movie's premise may not be ...

In 2010, world-renowned Israeli neuroscientist Henry Markram produced a dazzling video promoting his Blue Brain project — a plan to create a computer simulation of a mouse brain which would be the ...

While many people take reality at face value, others believe the far more intriguing theory that we are living in a computer simulation. It’s a concept straight out of “The Matrix” (though its origin ...

We developed a computer simulation to determine the distribution of mercaptans in liquid petroleum products. We then applied this simulation to the NGL fractionation (NF) unit in the Bandar Imam ...

Researchers at the University of Waterloo have built what they claim is the most accurate simulation of a functioning brain to date. Despite a seemingly unimpressive count of only 2.5 million neurons, ...

In this week's It’s Debatable article, Rick Rosen and Charles Moster debate whether we're all living in a computer simulation like the Matrix. Rosen retired as a professor from the Texas Tech ...

Researchers have developed a computer simulation of asteroid collisions that initially sought to replicate model asteroid strikes performed in a laboratory. After verifying the accuracy of the ...
