A team of Australian scientists have used small drones as part of a novel survey approach for looking at possible methods that could be used to make marine conservation more accessible, affordable, ...

The U.S. power grid, after faithfully delivering electricity to our neighborhoods for generations, is facing significant change to how it operates — thanks to solar-panel installations, wind farms, ...

Designers can employ a new technology to sign off on the structural integrity of the power grid early on, before proceeding with any power-consumption, voltage-drop, or electromigration simulations.

Advanced reconductoring involves replacing existing power lines with cables made from state-of-the-art materials, significantly increasing the grid's capacity. The technique is faster, cheaper, and ...

Researchers in India have developed a new method to operate a solar-plus-storage system in a stable manner under varying operating conditions. They claim that their novel technique enables the ...

Oracle announced Wednesday that it is joining a major European research project aimed at boosting grid computing, a technique for divvying up intensive computing tasks among multiple systems. expanded ...

for Nuclear Research (CERN). The project adapts grid computing techniques to study the origins of the universe. Grid computing emerged from academia as a way to overcome limited high-end computing ...
