A team from Georgia Tech, led by PhD student Md Nahid Haque Shazon and advised by Dr. Azad Naeemi, explored how to make SOT-MRAM faster and more energy-efficient. By tuning the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction and using shaped current pulses—especially descending triangles—they achieved significant energy savings and speed improvements. The project won the People’s Choice Award for […]

Cambridge Yang Graduates
Cambridge Yang recently graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, completing his dissertation on “On the Learnability of General Reinforcement-learning Objectives” under the supervision of Professor Michael Carbin. Yang’s research addresses fundamental limitations in reinforcement learning by moving beyond traditional reward-based approaches to establish a theoretical […]
Differentiating Singular Computations
Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, POSTECH, and KAIST have created SingularFlow, the first programming language with well-defined semantics for integrating and differentiating singular functions—mathematical functions that become undefined at certain points. The system addresses a fundamental challenge in scientific computing where traditional programming languages struggle with singularities that arise in physics, aerodynamics, mechanical […]
