IBM's development of a new generation of supercomputers

"Titan" works fast 17.59 beta FLOPS / second, while the next supercomputer speed of up to one hundred beta FLOPS / second

Noon term hacks computing the first time in 1929, and expresses the huge computers with enormous capacity, which includes thousands of processors related to them, and operate simultaneously for processors massive data, such as meteorological data and analysis of the possibilities and simulate the movement of molecules and genetics geological and environmental research.

And measured processing supercomputers to data unit "beta FLOPS" which is equivalent to a thousand trillion calculations per second speed, and focus supercomputers to complete the calculations very quickly, and retracts its paces when it comes to processors of large quantities of massive data, which is the enormous and complex to the point of data difficult to deal with conventional treatment tools.

And tops the list of five hundred most powerful computer in the world currently supernatural Chinese computer "Tianhe-2" quickly 33.86 beta FLOPS / second, followed by Alhacopan Alomarkiyan "Titan" fast 17.59 beta FLOPS / second and "Sequoia" fast 17.17 beta FLOPS / second, and then the Japanese Computer "Ki computer "fast 10.51 beta FLOPS / second, then the US" Mira "fast 8.59 beta FLOPS / second.

Seeks "IBM" to design the next generation of supercomputers in a way that reduces the need to transfer data from the memories and processors, and got $ 325 million in exchange for providing the US government in the strongest two computers superheroes at all by the year 2017 with reference to it from the assumed development both Titan and Sequoia and Mira.

And was named the Sierra
The company is calling a Alhessobn's Name "called" (Summit) is working on is designed to help researchers necessary to simulate nuclear reactors, data processing, and modeling of climate change, the US government is planning to install in a Department of Energy laboratory in Tennessee.

The Ripper II carries the name "Sierra" (Sierra) and designed to help researchers lab, "Lawrence Livermore" national in California to conduct tests and research related to nuclear weapons.

And supports both Alhessobn on what she called the company to "architecture based on data" that helps power distribution and allows the manipulation of data at different points in the same time instead of transferring data from one point to another within the system, without the company shows more details about this method.

This architecture provides a solution to the problems facing the most powerful super-computers in these days, namely the difficulty of dealing with massive data, where these computers to restore the data from the memories and transfer them to processors for analysis, which slows down the processing speed when dealing with massive amounts of data.

The focus in the coming new architectural supercomputers from "IBM" on the effective energy consumption, where more than consumption, "called" energy in "Titan" by 10%, but in return offers a treatment several times higher capacity.

It is expected to have a stronger title Alhacopan next couple of superheroes two computers in the world, is expected to come forward quickly to address up to one hundred beta FLOPS / second, which is equivalent to one hundred thousand trillion calculations per second, so the strength to go beyond computer Titan Ripper more than five times.

the 10 Most Significant Historical of the course of human events

  the 10 Most Significant Historical of the course of human events There have been numerous incidents throughout history that have had a profound and lasting impact on the course of human events. These incidents have shaped the world in various ways, politically, socially, culturally, and technologically. Here are some significant incidents that changed history: 1. **The Invention of the Printing Press (c. 1440)**: Johannes Gutenberg's invention of the printing press revolutionized communication, making books and information more widely accessible and playing a key role in the spread of knowledge and the Reformation. 2. **The American Revolution (1775-1783)**: The American colonies' struggle for independence from British rule not only established the United States but also inspired other independence movements around the world. 3. **The French Revolution (1789-1799)**: The French Revolution had a profound impact on the course of history, leading to the end of the monarchy in Fr...

Amazon testing drones for parcel delivery

Amazon testing drones for parcel delivery Amazon testing drones for parcel delivery Tested Amazon U.S. shopping-mail a new system for the delivery of parcels to consumers using the machines a small plane, according to the company's CEO Jeff Bezos in a program "Sixty Minutes" on CBS  on Sunday, the U.S.. But this project - which carries the name "Amazon Prime Air - will not be implemented probably four or five years at least, due to a major aspect of it - according to Bezos - the need to ratify the Federal Aviation Administration (IFFI) on legal using this type of flying machines for civilian purposes. Bezos explained that these machines called "Drunz" similar drones, but they are small, they can deliver a parcel weighing up to 2.3 kg, which constitute 86% of the total packages that the company would be delivered to consumers.

The saddest things and events that occurred in 2023

The saddest things and events that occurred in 2023   LOOK OFFER One of the saddest things and events that took place in 2023, which brought the prestige of Russia and Putin to the bottom, was the takeover by the Wagner organization, led by Prigogine, seizing several cities in Russia and declaring war on the military leadership.  But to be realistic, despite exaggerating and bragging about Russian weapons and military power for years, Russia did not achieve what it aspired to in the war with Ukraine, despite more than a year having passed since the beginning of the war because of NATO’s support with money and weapons. This is what made the Russian state bleed.  Because its plan was built on a lightning war.  Likewise, the planning and experience that it gained from its war in Syria did not help it in the Ukrainian war, where it made mistakes several times, which caused it to suffer many human and equipment losses.  As for the question directed to you:   How...
