New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

This repository is an example accompanying the DES RAP Book — an open educational resource on reproducible discrete-event simulation (DES) in Python and R. The book demonstrates best practices for ...

Here we are in the middle of a week that's already been full of announcements from Apple, and yet there is more to come. After showing off the iPhone 17e, iPad Air M4, MacBook Air M5 and new MacBook ...

Aside from the launch of the AirTag 2 last month, it had been a quiet year for Apple so far. But all that changed this week with new product announcements every day so far and a “special experience” ...

Abstract: In this work, we introduce DES-Gymnax, a novel high-performance discrete-event simulator implemented in JAX. By leveraging the just-in-time compilation, automatic vectorization, and GPU ...

Discover how discrete event simulation can optimize health care facility design by improving patient flow, resource use, and operational performance through data-driven, evidence-based design ...

How do you know anything is real? Some things you can see directly, like your fingers. Other things, like your chin, you need a mirror or a camera to see. Other things can’t be seen, but you believe ...

When you're setting out to get a new gaming PC or laptop, you've probably noticed there are quite a few models out there without an Nvidia or AMD graphics chip. These devices usually come with an ...

The simulation hypothesis—the idea that our universe might be an artificial construct running on some advanced alien computer—has long captured the public imagination. Yet most arguments about it rest ...
