MIT’s Educational Institution (NEI) proposes a future-proof affordable residential model: trimester calendar, co-ops, ...

Frustrated by the AI industry’s claims of proving math results without offering transparency, a team of leading academics has ...

The key idea is that temperature differences act as inputs, and the resulting heat diffusion produces the output ...

When given a target functionality, usually a particular pattern of heat conductivity, this algorithm can slowly hone in on the best possible design. The researchers refer to this as "inverse design," ...

Taback, the Isaac Henry Wing Professor of Mathematics, was announcing the visit of John Urschel to campus. Formerly an ...

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated a surprising new way to compute—by using heat instead ...

Engineers at MIT have turned one of computing’s biggest headaches, waste heat, into the main act. By sculpting “dust-sized” silicon structures that steer heat as precisely as electrical current, they ...

Scientists in the US have created a tiny silicon chip that can perform mathematical ...

MIT engineers use heat-conducting silicon microstructures to perform matrix multiplication with >99% accuracy hinting at ...

MIT researchers have designed silicon structures that can perform calculations in an electronic device using excess heat instead of electricity. These tiny structures could someday enable more ...
