Interview: Knowledgebase is power for nuclear reactor developers
August 28, 2019 by
AI technologies are being used to help develop Next-gen nuclear energy systems that could help reduce our dependency on fossil fuels. In this special guest feature, Dawn Levy and Weiju Ren from ORNL explore the challenges and opportunities in sharing nuclear materials knowledge internationally. “A knowledgebase is more than a database. Data are just symbols representing observations or the products of observations. Knowledge is not only data, but also people’s understanding of the data.”
