Do We Live In a Simulation? Gauging whether or not we dwell inside someone else’s computer may come down to advanced AI research—or measurements at the frontiers of cosmology. Lawmakers react to US ...

Small, icy moons might be boiling under their surface. Many moons in the outer solar system are thought to harbor subsurface oceans beneath their icy crusts. New computer simulations, reported ...

A research team at the Jülich Supercomputing Center, together with experts from NVIDIA, has set a new record in quantum simulation: for the first time, a universal quantum computer with 50 qubits has ...

Researchers at the quantum computing firm Quantinuum used a new Helios-1 quantum computer to simulate a mathematical model that has long been used to study superconductivity. These simulations are not ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Despite how it may feel some days, we probably aren’t stuck in a ...

Researchers say it's impossible to use algorithmic computation to generate everything in our universe. The possibility that our entire universe merely exists inside a computer simulation is more than ...

It's a plot device beloved by science fiction: our entire universe might be a simulation running on some advanced civilization's supercomputer. But new research from UBC Okanagan has mathematically ...

A computer simulation developed at MIT and commissioned by the Club of Rome in the early 1970s projected a possible collapse of civilization around 2040—if growth, resources and pollution trends ...

Security teams are drowning in threat intelligence. Every day brings with it reports of new malware campaigns, novel C2 channels, bespoke evasion tricks, and stealthier persistence methods. These ...

Bibek Chand is an associate professor in the Department of Political Science and International Affairs and the winner of a 2025 Teaching Excellence Award. Simulations are experiential learning tools ...

Neo4j, the graph database from the US-Swedish company of the same name, is used by 76% of the Fortune 100, and its Australian customers include organisations in the healthcare, policing and banking ...

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 ...
