The idea that reality might be a kind of cosmic software has moved from late night dorm debates into serious physics journals ...

A new research paper reframes the simulation hypothesis, asking whether reality could be simulated and what science can test.

Researchers say it's impossible to use algorithmic computation to generate everything in our universe. The possibility that our entire universe merely exists inside a computer simulation is more than ...

"It has been suggested that the universe could be simulated. If such a simulation were possible, the simulated universe could itself give rise to life, which in turn might create its own simulation.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are complex, computationally expensive and not typically something that startups focus on. But that’s exactly what Boston- and Berlin-based Dive is doing ...

What if gravity were informed by the way matter was arranged in the universe — and a sign that we were living in a reality composed by a giant computer? In a new paper published in the journal AIP ...

Computational models and simulations have had an important role in engineering analysis since as far back as the 1960s. It is widely recognized that the use of modeling and simulation tools can make ...
