Supercomputer will perform a quintillion operations per second
- ziddoap 8y agoI had no idea what number the title was referring to, so if there is anyone else in my boat... -1B,000M = 1 Quintillion (10^18) In other words, this is slated to be the first "Exascale" supercomputer. The current record [1] is petascale (~200PFLOPS), putting this at roughly 5x speed. [1]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summit_(supercomputer) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summit_(supercomputer)
- Vaslo 8y agoI actually had the full number typed out (and you can see it when you link to the article), but either someone edited it or it's a feature of the site to format numbers automatically.
