Thermodynamic computing is making waves in the world of artificial intelligence (AI), boasting a staggering 10,000x efficiency gain in AI processing. This innovative approach leverages probabilistic ...

A long-standing law of thermodynamics turns out to have a loophole at the smallest scales. Researchers have shown that quantum engines made of correlated particles can exceed the traditional ...

(Nanowerk News) Harnessing quantum states that avoid thermalization enables energy harvesters to surpass traditional thermodynamic limits such as Carnot efficiency, report researchers from Japan. The ...

Imagine a world where your computer doesn’t just work harder but smarter, tapping into the very chaos that surrounds us. It’s not science fiction—it’s the dawn of probabilistic and thermodynamic ...

Heat may be 10 billion times more efficient for randomization ...

(Editor’s Note: This story originally ran in November 2008 and has proved a perennial favorite of Power Engineering readers. With the New Year we thought we’d share it again. Click here to see the ...

Economic and other factors have had a large influence on the movement away from coal to other energy sources. One of these influences was the rapid growth of hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) that ...
