How digital tools are transforming the delivery of HS2
Major infrastructure projects are fraught with complexities, with concerns over cost, timescales and carbon – to name a few. Could the application of digital engineering help to improve efficiency and sustainability across these projects?
Ian Risk, chief technical officer at the Centre for Modelling & Simulation (CFMS) – a Bristol-based digital engineering research organisation – certainly thinks so.
CFMS can generate thousands of design options and a selection of optimised solutions for a construction project by incorporating a range of digital engineering services. These include modelling and simulation, cloud technologies and artificial intelligence.

Quantum communications reaching record distances
Quantum communications reaching record distances
The Cambridge Research Laboratory of Toshiba Europe announced a demonstration of quantum communications over optical fibres exceeding 600 km in length. The breakthrough will enable long distance quantum-secured information transfer between metropolitan areas and is a major advance towards building the future quantum internet.
The term quantum internet describes a global network of quantum computers connected by long distance quantum communication links. It is expected to allow the ultrafast solution of complex optimization problems in the cloud, a more accurate global timing system and highly secure communications across the globe. Several large government initiatives to build a quantum internet have been announced, for example in the US, EU and China.
