CSAIL researcher Anish Athalye describes hardware wallets as more than just a handy tool for Bitcoin miners - to him, they represent a fundamental paradigm shift that moves away from viewing computers themselves as ground zero for digital security.
Stock market investors often rely on financial risk theories that help them maximize returns while minimizing financial loss due to market fluctuations. These theories help investors maintain a balanced portfolioto ensure they’ll never lose more money than they’re willing to part with at any given time.
A team from MIT CSAIL has developed a new radix-sorting algorithm called Regions Sort which is up to four times faster than similar algorithms while using half the memory.
MIT and the US Air Force have signed an agreement to launch a new program designed to make fundamental advances in artificial intelligence that could improve Air Force operations while also addressing broader societal needs.

CSAIL recently established the TEDxMIT series. The TEDxMIT events will feature talks about important and impactful ideas by members of the broader MIT community.
This event is organized by Daniela Rus and John Werner, in collaboration with a team of undergraduate students led by Stephanie Fu and Rucha Keklar.
MIT CSAIL unsealed a special time capsule from 1999 after a self-taught programmer Belgium solved a puzzle devised by MIT professor and famed cryptographer Ron Rivest.
Today’s data centers eat up and waste a good amount of energy responding to user requests as fast as possible, with only a few microseconds delay. A new system by MIT researchers improves the efficiency of high-speed operations by better assigning time-sensitive data processing across central processing unit (CPU) cores and ensuring hardware runs productively.
Undergraduate research projects show how students are advancing research in human and artificial intelligence, and applying intelligence tools to other disciplines.
