Very Super Computers In Japan

Less than a year earthquake and tsunami, the Japanese had not dimmed in the matter of technology. Recently, the giant computer company engaged in the weather control the RIKEN Advanced Science Institute for Computing in Kobe, Japan, introduced the fastest computer in the world.

The computer made in Japan was named the super computer built K Fujitsu. The engine speed equivalent to one million desktop computers. The previous record was held by China for six months. Fujitsu and the head of the RIKEN said that the project had addressed the earthquake and tsunami on 11 March.

Super computer that has the force tripled from the previous title holder and capable of performing calculations kuadrilliun every eight seconds. One quadrillion is the number 1 followed by 15 zeros and the speed of computer jargon is known as 8.2 petaflops.

Previous fastest machine is a Chinese computer Tianhe-1A, which velocity 2.507 petaflops. It confirms the growth of computer technology and the economic power of China - a country that is growing rapidly.

Tianhe-1A to China for the first time topped the list of the world's fastest computer machine to get rid of the United States (U.S.), which has four of the top ten super computers. It also recognized experts who say the development of K machines faster than five competitors combined.

There are five super computers in the U.S. in the top 10, including third on the Jaguar system at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Other computers in the top ten of two machines from China, two engines from Japan and one from France, according to the Daily Mail.

"This machine is very impressive and more powerful than other computers," said Jack Dongarra who released the list of world's best super computer for six months.

The rating is based on the speed of standard mathematical equations. Making K Japanese computer cost U.S. $ 1.2 billion. It consists of 672 computer cabinet composed of the circuit board with 70 thousand processors. A computer or laptop typically uses only one processor.

With the number of processors and circuit boards, computers K spent enough energy to power 10,000 homes electricity. However, its creator claims it is saving energy.machine at a cost of £ 6 million a year.

"The use of computers is expected to affect K innovative in the field of global climate research, meteorology, disaster prevention, and medicine, thus creating a prosperous and secure society,"
