With the increase in big HPC calculations in the areas of AI, material science and drug discovery, we are going beyond the current capacity of today’s supercomputers. Conventional IT has almost reached its limits.
A new computing power is emerging which will bring remarkable results over the next 5-10 years.
The limits of conventional IT
Moore’s Law – resulting in double the computation power – is now at a crunch point as transistors will stop shrinking every 18 months.
The first quantum revolution pioneered by Einstein, Heisenberg and Schrödinger among others, brought several major inventions to life such as superconductivity, transistors, lasers and fiber-optic communications.
