Computational Power

Computational power, encompassing the ability to perform complex calculations and process vast amounts of data, is a critical resource driving advancements across numerous scientific and technological fields. Current research focuses on improving efficiency through techniques like model compression (e.g., using partial states or mixed precision training), exploring alternative computing paradigms (e.g., neuromorphic computing, reservoir computing, and quantum computing), and optimizing resource allocation (e.g., via commodification of compute and decentralized federated learning). These efforts aim to reduce energy consumption, enhance performance, and broaden access to computational resources, impacting areas such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and high-performance computing.
