OREANDA-NEWS Russian scientists will begin assembling an experimental sample of a photonic processor in August. This is reported by RIA Novosti.
Roman Skidanov, Professor of the Department of Technical Cybernetics at Samara Korolev University, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, disclosed information about the project to the agency. According to Skidanov, the processor will be able to process information hundreds of times faster than modern neural networks based on traditional semiconductor computers.
"The implementation of our project is going according to plan, the creation of an experimental sample of a photonic processor is now in the stage of body assembly," Skidanov said. According to the professor, the specialists have already produced all the main elements of the experimental sample. The assembly will be launched in August, and the tests are scheduled to be completed by the end of the year.
During the development, a diode-type laser was used, which has less coherence, which should improve the characteristics of the processor. The creation of an analog photonic computing system will allow analysis to be carried out hundreds of times faster than modern neural networks.
The project was created in the interests of implementing a photonic computing machine of the megascience class by 2030. The processor sample was developed as part of the scientific program of the National Center for Physics and Mathematics (NCFM), which is being implemented with the support of the Rosatom State Corporation.
In June, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke about the failures that occurred while working on the creation of the Russian NICA collider. Putin noted that the specialists had coped with the problems and the project could still be considered successful.
