The company's scientists have received a patent on connecting a new type of super-small computer circuit to the outside world, dealing with a key obstacle in making such circuits useful. Stephen ...

A team of European physicists has developed an integrated circuit that can build itself. The work, appearing in this week's Nature 1, is an important step towards its ultimate goal — a self-assembling ...

Google and others have developed smart clothing with built-in integrated circuits, but what if the textile itself formed the circuit? That's the idea behind The Embroidered Computer, an interactive ...

Researchers at PARC and Thinfilm Electronics have finally managed to print -- as in, using a printer that is similar to the one attached to your computer -- a computer circuit consisting of ...

Integrated circuits are the "brain" in computers, cell phones, and many other electronic devices. Scientists have demonstrated substantial improvements in integrated circuits, also known as silicon ...

Scientists have demonstrated how living cells can be induced to carry out computations in the manner of tiny robots or computers. The interdisciplinary nexus of biology and engineering, known as ...

For all its sophistication and power, your brain is built from unreliable components – one neuron can successfully provoke a signal in another only 40% of the time. This lack of efficiency frustrates ...
