What's New in HPC Research: Pollution, Dark Data, Human Brains & More
By Oliver Peckham In this regular feature, HPCwire highlights newly published research in the high-performance computing community and related domains. From parallel programming to exascale to quantum computing, the details are here. Over three million yearly deaths are at least partially attributable to urban air pollution, of which traffic emissions constitute an enormous portion. These authors, hailing from HLRS and Széchenyi István University in Hungary, conducted a one-year simulation of street-level air pollution, combining a traffic simulation with a computational fluid dynamics sim...
