How Laser Communications Are Improving Satellites
Demonstrations indicate that laser communications could deliver significantly higher bandwidth than RF, with reduced size, weight, and power requirements on satellites.
Mixing and matching chiplets with different capabilities allows designers to optimize platforms for specific functions or use cases.
Many public agencies already have tracking and communications technologies embedded in their emergency and transit vehicles.
A firmware change to Bluetooth chip sets makes the unwelcome tracking of a device by stalkers, hackers, and others impractical.
Nobel Laureates Consider the State of Quantum Computing
Most experts are reluctant to predict when a large-scale quantum computer will be commercialized.
A “mugshot to mugshot” comparison of two images of a face is essentially a solved problem thanks to neural networks, experts say.
More than half of surveyed organizations have a person who's in charge of AI or orchestrate related initiatives.
Training Neural Networks to Grok
“This phenomenon is very counterintuitive in terms of how we classically think of neural network training."
A paper by Victor Reis and Thomas Rothvoss proved a new upper bound on the time required to solve for any integer program.
How CrowdStrike Stopped Everything
The CrowdStrike global IT outage put millions of systems and their data out of reach.
Partnering to Protect the Power
As the informational needs of the power grid become more complex and the connected “smart grid” expands, so too do the cybersecurity needs of grid operators.
Non-Volatile Memory Technology Poised for Game-Changing Breakthrough
The advantages of phase-chain memory superlattices are clear and demonstrably outweigh potential crosstalk concerns.
The scaling of LLMs, with their enormous memory-bandwidth requirements, comes at a high cost.
Design and engineering teams increasingly are turning to classical and generative AI to rethink, reinvent, and remake the modern microchip.
Gauging Societal Impacts of Large Language Models
NIST is testing LLMs in a scientific setting to determine their real-world effects.
Only innovation will stave off the unbridled increase in power needed to run the chips behind exploding AI features and functionality.
Alive and Well, As a Matter of Fax
Billions of documents are sent by fax each year. These are not the last gasps of a dying technology.
Beyond Turing: Testing LLMs for Intelligence
Computer scientists have not developed a consensus on how to measure intelligence, or what exactly to measure.
Researchers believe AI guided by biological knowledge will help extract traits from images.
Global Auto Dealer Management Systems Hacked
Lawsuits claim the attacks exposed consumers' personal information and stopped dealerships' sales, financing, servicing, and payroll operations.
Relying on BONES to Enhance Video Streaming
Advances in deep learning allow the enhancement of video content when streaming bandwidth fluctuates or is constrained.
Spinning Electrons to Attain Low-Power Computing
Researchers are working to identify useful properties in antiferromagnets.
The Impact of AI on Computer Science Education
How will generative AI tools be incorporated into the pedagogy?
Shape the Future of Computing
ACM encourages its members to take a direct hand in shaping the future of the association. There are more ways than ever to get involved.
Get InvolvedCommunications of the ACM (CACM) is now a fully Open Access publication.
By opening CACM to the world, we hope to increase engagement among the broader computer science community and encourage non-members to discover the rich resources ACM has to offer.
