A lab for the future of computing

IBM Research 2024-08-29 | By 2030, semiconductors will allow us to integrate a trillion transistors in a single chip. AI models will have trillions of parameters and many trillions of tokens of data inside them. With quantum computing, we're going to be able to represent information that have numbers like 2 to the power of 100. We believe that the future of computing lies in the successful convergence of classical, AI, and quantum computing platforms, that is, the seamless use of all of them to solve problems that have been previously unsolvable. Take a look inside our newest working compute lab, a physical manifestation of what's next in computing.

Using AI models to fight climate change in Kenya

IBM Research 2024-08-25 | IBM’s Dr. Juan Bernabé Moreno, Director of IBM Research Europe and Climate & Sustainability Accelerated Discovery Lead, recently sat down with Ambassador Philip Thigo, Special Envoy on Technology for the Republic of Kenya, to discuss the cutting-edge technologies they’re deploying to fight climate change. As the country aims to both conserve and even increase the water supply available to citizens, they’ve begun a reforestation initiative to protect critical forest area that provides most of the water supply available to Kenya. Leveraging IBM and NASA’s geospatial foundation model, the government was able to carefully monitor their reforestation program efforts. Watch as Ambassador Thigo explains how this technology is impacting Kenyan citizens and where they hope to apply it next.

Holograms were created on this day in history

IBM Research 2024-03-24 | Months before the first episode of Star Trek aired, IBM researchers were showing off something that must have felt like science fiction at the time. On this day in 1967, IBM unveiled a new method for creating holograms with digital computers for the first time. A team in Texas used an IBM System/360 Model 50 computer to calculate the interference patterns that would be created if light waves were actually reflected from a real object. The creation of holograms numerically by a computer opened the possibility of obtaining 3D pictures of objects that exist only in concept, rather than in physical reality. The new technique greatly extended the usefulness of holography in engineering and scientific applications. And now, computer-generated 3D objects can be found everywhere, from video games to virtual reality.

IBM System/360 pioneers awarded the National Medal of Science

IBM Research 2024-02-19 | On this day in 1985, US President Ronald Reagan bestowed the first National Medal of Technology and Innovation upon three IBMers: Fred Brooks, Erich Bloch and Bob O. Evans. The award has since become the preeminent recognition in the country for significant contributions to society through technology. All three IBMers won the medal for their work on the development of the IBM System/360, which revolutionized the data processing for the IT industry.

The System/360 was the first family of computers designed with both commercial and scientific use cases in mind, allowing customers to expand their systems as their needs grew — which was a first in the industry at the time. Mainframe systems have come to underpin much of the modern economy, securely managing transactions for the world’s largest banks, bookings for the world’s biggest airlines, and data for just about every industry.

IBM’s research and development into mainframe systems has continued to this day, up through IBM z16, the latest iteration of the IBM Z platform that brought industry leading AI inferencing and cyber-resiliency to the hybrid cloud. None of that would’ve been possible without the earliest pioneers on System/360.

IBM computer guides NASAs Saturn rocket into space

IBM Research 2024-01-29 | On this day in 1964, an IBM computer was used aboard an historically significant testing flight of NASA’s Saturn rocket. The flight successfully placed a record-breaking 19-ton payload into orbit around the earth. The IBM computer, used for guidance, was an integral part of the Instrument Unit (IU) section of the Saturn, and helped ensure the test mission went as expected. Information about the mission’s performance was telemetered in real time back to Earth, from the IU. Just over five years later, NASA used the Saturn system to send the first humans to the surface of the Moon.

Driving Performance for the Tools of Utility

IBM Research 2023-12-05 | As we find more problems to explore at utility-scale, we must also evolve our products and services to support utility-scale workloads. In other words, we need to define the necessary Tools for Utility. These start with foundational properties like availability, reliability, and stability that co-exist with the performance metrics of scale, quality, and speed. We need execution modes that support long-running jobs and threaded primitives to take advantage of system parallelism. We need middleware tools to bring together quantum and classical infrastructure. And we need Primitives with increasingly sophisticated error mitigation technologies. In this session we will share several product announcements toward delivering the Tools of Utility.
