Our lives have suddenly been forced into the core of the digital world this year. We are still able to work and socialise globally because of the advancement in technology. Despite the situation we are in today, scientists will continue to advance the technology to aid the human race.
As part of the Technology That Matters series, SMART and SGInnovate have invited MIT Professors to share their technologies. There will be fireside chats and panel discussions! Don’t miss this opportunity to interact with MIT Professors.
The 4th annual Congress was a virtual event that featured the final report from the MIT Task Force on the Work of the Future. Hosted by MIT's Task Force on Work of the Future, CSAIL, and Initiative on the Digital Economy, this year's Congress highlighted research findings from the MIT Task Force on Work of the Future's final report released in November 2020. Given the rapidly changing environment brought on by Covid-19, this topic is more important and relevant than ever.
MIT CSAIL researchers say improving computing technology after Moore's Law will require more efficient software, new algorithms, and specialized hardware.
A new system developed by researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) aims to help. Dubbed Yogo, the tool makes it much easier to make systematic changes in code - and can do so in multiple programming languages.
Ultorg's founder and CEO Eirik Bakke proposes a solution to arbitrary relational databases. The relational database is now 50 years old, yet remains primarily a tool for programmers.
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.
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.
