Co-Design of Hybrid Quantum-Classical Applications in Multimodal Cancer Research
Quantum hardware has made significant advances in the last few years, but finding compelling applications with practical quantum advantage has been challenging. In today’s article, we argue that real applications will be a hybrid combination of quantum and classical...
Embracing the Era of Open Source Chips
“The theory behind open source is simple. In the case of an operating system, the source code is free. Anyone can improve it, change it, exploit it. But those improvements, changes, and exploitations have to be made freely available.” – Linus Torvalds The advent of...
ACE Center: Energy-efficient Distributed Computing for the Next Decade and Beyond
One of the most pressing challenges facing today’s digital society is how to curb the relentless increase in the energy consumption of computing. Without major action, such an increase is even likely to accelerate, as ubiquitous AI models are embedded in applications...

The Quest for Computing Sustainability
In an era where artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing and the demise of Dennard scaling is becoming increasingly apparent, the importance of Sustainable Computing has never been more critical. Global datacenter electricity consumption reached 460 TWh in...
TinyML: Why the Future of Machine Learning is Tiny and Bright
At the dawn of the 21st century, Mark Weiser envisioned a world where computers would weave themselves into the fabric of everyday life, becoming indistinguishable from it. This prophecy of ubiquitous computing has not only materialized but has evolved beyond...
AI Software Should be More Like Plain Old Software
A Tale of Two Softwares: In a world where AI is revolutionizing the way we interact with technology, a new type of software emerges: AI Software (AISW). But with great power comes great responsibility, and the systems research community must rise to the challenge of ensuring AISW is as robust, secure, and safe as its predecessor, Plain Old Software (POSW).
Building Community: WICARCH In-Person Meetups
On behalf of the Women in Computer Architecture (WICARCH) organizing committee, we’re pleased to announce two new initiatives geared to foster in-person gatherings of members. One of the primary goals of WICARCH is to create a sense of community among women computer...Subscribe
