In this blog, we discuss cognitive computing and other technologies with a focus on supply chain management and innovation. Other topics of discussion include digital enterprise transformation, marketing, the Internet of Things, and smart cities. Our goal is to advance the public discussion about how cognitive computing and other advanced technologies affect the world in which we live.

Jennifer Ouellette reports that systems like CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) create such enormous amounts of data in such a short period of time that traditional processing methods are simply too inadequate
“Physicists have discovered a jewel-like geometric object that dramatically simplifies calculations of particle interactions and challenges the notion that space and time are fundamental components of reality,” writes Natalie Wolchover. [“A Jewel
Let’s face it quantum computing is not an easy subject. Understanding, for example, that a qubit can simultaneously represent both a 0 and 1 and that it would only take 300 qubits
“The brain performs its canonical task — learning — by tweaking its myriad connections according to a secret set of rules,” writes Natalie Wolchover. “To unlock these secrets, scientists 30 years ago
In a post entitled Quantum Computing: Is the Future Here?, I noted that Lockheed Martin had purchased a quantum computer from the Canadian firm D-Wave. Now Google and NASA have teamed to
The world of quantum mechanics has one of the strangest landscapes in science. It is the world atomic and sub-atomic particles. Yet it is also a field that holds great promise for
An article in The Economist states, “We are entering what some in the technology industry refer to as a post-PC era.” [“Beyond the PC,” 7 October 2011] The article clarifies that the
If you go back and watch the earliest science fiction movies, one of the things you will notice they never got right was miniaturization (except maybe for “ray guns”). Of course, transistors
About a month ago, I wrote a post focused on D-Wave Systems, a Canadian firm that claims to have developed a practical quantum computer [Quantum Computing — Not Coming Soon to a
Quantum computing is the holy grail for performing massive number crunching. A Canadian firm, D-Wave Systems, has unveiled what The Economist calls the “world’s first practical quantum computer” [“Orion’s Belter,” 17 February
