A computer built to mimic the brain's neural networks produces similar results to that of the best brain-simulation supercomputer software currently used for neural-signaling research. Tested for ...

A neuromorphic computer hosted at the UK's University of Manchester suffered an outage last month. As first reported by The Register, the university's SpiNNaker machine was brought down after its ...

Scientists just activated the world's biggest "brain": a supercomputer with a million processing cores and 1,200 interconnected circuit boards that together operate like a human brain. Ten years in ...

Scientists at the University of Manchester are working on a project that aims to make a computer that can mimic the brain. The project is led by Professor Steve Furber who was one of the principal ...

A computer built to mimic the brain's neural networks produces similar results to that of the best brain-simulation supercomputer software currently used for neural-signaling research, finds a new ...

Hey Siri, listen up. A multitasking supercomputer that attempts to mimic the human brain was switched on Friday – and it could be used to help virtual assistants like Apple’s Siri and Amazon’s Alexa ...

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or ...

We've long used the brain as inspiration for computers, but the SpiNNaker supercomputer, switched on this month, is probably the closest we’ve come to recreating it in silicon. Now scientists hope to ...

Forward-looking: We're used to hearing about supercomputers such as IBM's 200-petaflop Summit machine, but the million-processor-core 'Spiking Neural Network Architecture' mahcine, or 'SpiNNaker,' is ...
