Founded by CEO Jon Garrity ’11 and CTO Will Vega-Brown ’11, SM ’13, Tagup is currently being used by energy companies to monitor approximately 60,000 pieces of equipment around North America and Europe.
Given that our smartphones have largely become appendages over the last decade, it’s hard to imagine that ten years ago there was no Instagram, Uber, TikTok or Tinder. The ways we move, shop, eat and communicate continue to evolve thanks to the technologies we use. It can be easy to forget how quickly things have changed - so let’s turn back the clocks and reminisce about some of the computing breakthroughs that have transformed our lives in the ’10s.
A novel system developed by MIT researchers automatically “learns” how to schedule data-processing operations across thousands of servers — a task traditionally reserved for imprecise, human-designed algorithms. Doing so could help today’s power-hungry data centers run far more efficiently.
Continue the conversation of AI and the Future of Work
After the AI and the Future of Work Congress on Nov 21, keep the conversation going! Cap off your time on campus by participating in the AI & Work of the Future Unconference on Friday, November 22.
Join fellow participants and bring your biggest questions and most innovative ideas to this half-day event. No pre-determined topics, keynotes, or panels - we’ll amplify and facilitate the AI and future of work-driven conversations that matter most to you and your organization.
Technology as a vector for positive change | Technology for a better world
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.
A team led by researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) has developed a robotic system that can detect if an object is paper, metal, or plastic.
MIT researchers have designed a novel flash-storage system that could cut in half the energy and physical space required for one of the most expensive components of data centers: data storage.
