In Race to Break a Quintillion (1018) Floating-Point Barrier
Last week the U.S. Department of Energy announced its next big supercomputer project AURURA that is expected to break the barrier of exaFLOP computation – a quintillion (1018) floating-point computations per second at its inception in 2021. Awarded to a consortium between Intel and Cray Computing, the new supercomputer will cost more than half a […]
