Nasa set to join petaflop elite Posted on May 11th
The supercomputer will be installed at Nasa’s Ames Research Center at Moffet Field, California, the site of its existing supercomputer facility. Nasa’s current top supercomputer, called Columbia, was turned on in 2004 and has a theoretical peak of 88.88 teraflops. This makes it the 20th most powerful supercomputer on the planet, according to the Top 500 Project which compiles a list of the relative performance of these machines.
