Although advanced neural networks continue to dramatically improve the capabilities of artificial intelligence systems, they are associated with substantial energy use. In an effort to address this problem a growing number of organisations are focused on the creation of technologies designed to reduce energy use in the training and operation of such systems.

Prof. Andrea Alù’s and PhD candidate Francesco Monticone’s research paper titled ‘Invisibility Exposed: Physical Bounds on Passive Cloaking’ will be published in the Optical Society’s flagship journal Optica in the upcoming issue. Together, Prof. Alù and Monticone have established quantitative physical limitations on the performance of cloaking devices, a technology that allows objects to become invisible or undetectable for electromagnetic waves, such as radio waves, microwaves, infrared and visible light.

RCR Wireless News, a leading source of wireless, telecom and mobile technology news and actionable intelligence since 1982, named WNCG Prof. Jeff Andrews to their top 10 list of Industrial Internet-of-Things (IoT) 5G Innovators. His inclusion in the list is part of a greater list focused on recognizing the top international leaders fueling what RCR Wireless calls the Fourth Industrial Revolution - a revolution focused on futuristic, next-generation industrial IoT applications and the mobile telecommunications industry.
