    Is the internet changing how we create “knowledge”?

    How do we know what is “true”? When I was growing up in the 1970s, I believed most of the information I received. That included things my teachers told me, things I heard on the nightly news (my mother watched Walter Chronkite while she cooked dinner), and things I read in my textbooks. I accepted […]

    The Vision for the Global Quantum Internet

    The true power of classical computing was never fully realised until the emergence of the internet. The internet enables information to be a commodity whose market value drives technological advancement. Quantum computers operate according to entirely different principles in the way they process information, which in the future will enable forms of computation, which cannot be realised on conventional computers. This raises the immediate question “what if we start networking them together?”

    In the footsteps of Leibniz: Learning by Computing

    This book focuses on the shaping of the lifting surfaces to give an aircraft the desired performance. Skills in shaping for performance can be built by hands-on experience in real aerodynamic design projects and learning from the masters, their successes and mistakes. Such on-the-job education is very expensive. The book takes another tack to prepare […]
