Researchers propose a hybrid computing = framework that moves beyond traditional peak TOPS/W efficiency metrics. The=
paper demonstrates that combining digital orchestration with analogue, pho= tonic, and neuromorphic accelerators delivers a scalable path toward energy= -efficient AI systems. Rather than forcing all workloads onto pure digital = logic, the proposed system dynamically routes tasks so physical substrates = earn an expanding role only where they offer a measurable, system-level eff= iciency advantage while digital software manages noise, integration, and fa= llbacks.
