Researchers Break Supercomputing Record while Advancing Cancer Research
Scientists at ETH Zurich and IBM Research in Switzerland have set a new record in fluid dynamics supercomputing through its simulation of bursting bubbles. The simulation could lead to advances in kidney stone and cancer treatment as well as improvements in high pressure fuel injector technology. In collaboration with the Technical University of Munich, the… Continue reading Researchers Break Supercomputing Record while Advancing Cancer Research
