Using advanced computer simulations, researchers from the University of Rhode Island’s Graduate School of Oceanography (GSO) ...

Networks of molecules in our body behave as though they have goals and desires. Understanding this phenomenon could solve the ...

The scale of the simulations on Frontier has reached such a point that we are within reach of experiments as far as the range of scales that can be simulated numerically or can be made to happen in ...

Few scientific ideas have leapt from philosophy seminars to dinner-table debates as quickly as the claim that our universe ...

The idea that reality might be a kind of cosmic software has shifted from late-night dorm debate to a live question in physics and philosophy. A growing body of work now treats the “simulation ...

One of the most influential science studies of all time started with a modest minicomputer, some simulated boxes of water molecules, and a grand vision for computer-aided chemistry. The year was 1982.

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

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 ...
