excaliber Posted December 20, 2003 Posted December 20, 2003 Im into distributed computer, cluster computing, and supercomputing. I figured I'd share my love around with all of you. Heres a few recent articles on them. Tilak Agerwala, vice president of systems at IBM's T.J. Watson Research Center, is trying to take some of the pain out of supercomputing. http://news.com.com/2008-7337-5126122.html?tag=nefd_gutspro World's biggest 'virtual supercomputer' given the go-ahead http://physics.about.com/b/a/051276.htm NEC claims it has developed the smallest transistor in the world, which could make supercomputers the size of a PC http://news.zdnet.co.uk/hardware/0,39020351,39118422,00.htm Dawning said today that it will fashion the fastest supercomputer in China with a machine capable of delivering 10,000 GFLOPS and using 2000 AMD Opteron microprocessors. http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=10654 Have fun. Oh, Bob. One quick question/request. I think theres a vB hack somewhere that keeps google from indexing outbound links, so you can conserve your pagerank. Figured I should let you know, since Im posting all these links. Just tell me to stop if you dont want outbound links ;) Quote -Zach "It's a flat file masquerading as a relational engine.
