• China’s National Supercomputing Center in Shenzhen unveiled LineShine, a next-generation system aiming for 2 exaflops performance.
  • The system is built entirely on domestic Chinese processors, network technology, and storage systems.
  • ARMv9 architecture with SVE2 extensions accelerates AI mathematical operations directly on the CPU.
  • Japanese scientists developed a microdrone platform for measuring optical forces on nanostructures, discovering ’transverse optical torque'.
  • University of Illinois mechanical engineers devised a more energy-efficient chip cooling technology using 3D-printed copper cold plates.
  • Chinese researchers developed ’living plastic’ that fully degrades on command using Bacillus subtilis bacteria.
  • The Ocean Charger project introduced a wireless ship charging system using inductive technology resistant to corrosion.
