IBM and GloFo settle dispute

IMG_0607-300x200.jpeg

GlobalFoundries and IBM have settled their lawsuit over IP and say they are looking at ways to co-operate in the future. The case, which has been going on since April 2023, arose from IBM’s transfer of its semiconductor unit to GloFo in 2015 and IBM’s subsequent transfer of  technology to Rapidus and Intel. IBM’s deal with Rapidus was to build ...

IBM’s analogue AI chip achieves 400Gop/s/mm2

IBM proposed analogue AI chip

IBM has revealed an analogue in-memory IC for implementing neural networks. The device stores weights locally as analogue levels as conductance in phase-change memory, and implements analogue multiply-accumulate calculation. For analogue AI processing “two key challenges need to be overcome: These memory arrays need to compute with precision on par with existing digital systems, and they need to be able ...

IBM has shown that quantum computers can produce accurate results at a scale of 100+ qubits reaching beyond leading classical approaches. One of the ultimate goals of quantum computing is to simulate components of materials that classical computers have never efficiently simulate. But today’s quantum systems are inherently noisy and they produce a significant number of errors that hamper performance. This ...

IBM plans European quantum data centre

IBM European quantum data centre

IBM has announced a European quantum computer data centre at its facility in Ehningen, for companies, research institutions and government agencies. This will be its second, after a quantum data centre in New York. Scheduled to operate in 2024, the German site will have “multiple IBM quantum computing systems, each with more than 100 qubits”, said IBM. “The data centre ...
