An IBM supercomputer up to 20 PetaFLOPs

"It comes into production in its final form only in 2012 the new IBM
supercomputer built using technology Blue Genie"

The availability of processing power increasingly large open space to
use increasingly demanding of their PCs in both home and office, at
costs that prove to be if not in constant decline as a constant. Just
think of the ability to run video editing complex flows on
high-definition video to determine a home for passionate users, able
to exploit fully in all the processing power of your system.

The increase in processing power of PCs can be exploited best when the
problems to be solved in terms of calculations, involving the
simultaneous use of thousands of processors. We speak of the
Supercomputer, a term adopted to describe the cluster of PCs connected
to each other and specifically dedicated to parallel computations, and
particularly heavy at the same time, important.
