A team including researchers from Seoul National University College of Engineering has developed neuromorphic hardware capable of performing artificial intelligence (AI) computations with ultra-low power consumption. The research, published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology, addresses fundamental issues in existing intelligent semiconductor materials and devices while demonstrating potential for array-level technology.

Currently, vast amounts of power are consumed in parallel computing for processing big data in various fields such as the Internet of Things (IoT), user data analytics, generative AI, large language models (LLM), and autonomous driving. However, the conventional silicon-based CMOS semiconductor computing used for parallel computation faces problems such as high energy consumption, slower memory and processor speeds, and the physical limitations of high-density processes. This results in energy and carbon emission issues, despite AI’s positive contributions to daily life.

To address these challenges, it’s necessary to overcome the limitations of digital-based Von Neumann architecture computing. As such, the development of next-generation intelligent semiconductor-based neuromorphic hardware that mimics the working principles of the human brain has emerged as a critical task.

November will bring plenty to see in the night sky, including meteor showers rich with fireballs and a celestial alignment with the moon.

Twenty Starlink satellites were launched into space early Wednesday morning when a SpaceX rocket launched from the Santa Barbara County coast.

The rocket soared over the Southern California coast after the 5:07 a.m. launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base northwest of Santa Barbara.

Scientists have developed a new material: an ultra-thin film that can absorb over 99% of electromagnetic waves.

The Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS) states it to be the “world’s first ultra-thin film composite material capable of absorbing over 99% of electromagnetic waves.”

Halloween is on Thursday, Oct. 31 — but parts of the Treasure Coast may get a nice treat the night before.

SpaceX is targeting Wednesday, Oct. 30, to launch another payload of Starlink broadband satellites into low-Earth orbit from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Depending on weather and visibility, parts of Indian River County might see a nice streak in the sky.

Below are suggestions on where to watch the rocket launch from this area and other things to know. If there are changes to the launch schedule, this story will be updated.

A security flaw impacting the Wi-Fi Test Suite could enable unauthenticated local attackers to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

The CERT Coordination Center (CERT/CC) said the vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2024–41992, said the susceptible code from the Wi-Fi Alliance has been found deployed on Arcadyan FMIMG51AX000J routers.

“This flaw allows an unauthenticated local attacker to exploit the Wi-Fi Test Suite by sending specially crafted packets, enabling the execution of arbitrary commands with root privileges on the affected routers,” the CERT/CC said in an advisory released Wednesday.
