Nanostructures Bring Gains for Phase Change Memory

Cars That Think

Engineers in the United States and Taiwan say they have demonstrated a promising new twist on nonvolatile memory that’s small enough, miserly when it comes to energy, and works at low enough voltage that it could boost the abilities of future processors. Yet it’s slower than DRAM, a computer’s main memory, which is volatile.

Inside the Global Race to Tap Potent Offshore Wind

Cars That Think

Ireland, South Korea, and Taiwan are among the other countries with bold floating wind ambitions. One FloWave-tested platform, engineered by Copenhagen-based Stiesdal Offshore , was recently selected for a 100-megawatt wind farm to be built off Scotland’s northern tip in 2025. Pacific coast could support 100 GW more by midcentury.
