A Patent Milestone
Date added: 2013-01-10
IBM topped the U.S. patent list for the 20th consecutive year in 2012. The company's inventors received a record 6,478 patents in 2012 for a range of inventions that will enable advancements across key domains, such as analytics, Big Data, cybersecurity, cloud, mobile, and a new era of cognitive computing systems. IBM Master Inventor Stephen Bedell (pictured) shows a new class of flexible and versatile semiconductor materials enabled by U.S. Patent #8,247,261 that will power ultra-thin, lightweight and flexible products and can be applied to a wide range of technologies such as biomedical, security, wearable computing and solid-state lighting.

Keeping Data Centers Cool on the Dawn of Winter
Date added: 2012-12-20
With holiday shoppers rushing to take advantage of the final week of "free-shipping" offers from online retailers, computer rooms will need to keep the air conditioning on, even though the first day of winter is two days away. With more than 33 million servers in the world, cooling the computers is an acute problem. Most data centers use 25% of their total energy to simply cool their machines. IBM's Energy Efficiency Lab in Poughkeepsie, NY. was the setting for a two-year project with the U.S. Department of Energy that ends next week, to devise new methods of cooling computers. Here, IBM engineer, Milnes David, inspects the chilled innards of a radiator-equipped IBM computer. The radiators slash the amount of energy required to cool a typical data center -- from 25% to less than 4%. IBM demonstrated the new radiator technology in June 2012, when it built the world's fastest, hot-water cooled supercomputer for the Leibniz Superconductor Center in Germany. The patented cooling technology is an option available on all of IBM's servers. (Jon Simon/Feature Photo Service for IBM) More info: Michael Corrado, mcorrado@us.ibm.com

IBM Watson Lab
Date added: 2012-10-30
IBM researcher Michael Barborak works on WatsonPaths, a collaborative learning and training tool utilizing the Watson technology, that will be available to Cleveland Clinic medical students to assist in their education. Focused on critical thinking and problem solving, students will learn the process of navigating the latest content, suggesting and considering a variety of hypotheses and finding key evidence to support potential answers, diagnoses and possible treatment options.
