This photo gallery takes you inside Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the US, home to some of the world's fastest supercomputers. It's also the site where the first plutonium was refined to create atomic bombs during World War II.
Roadrunner has topped the Top500 supercomputers list to be released Wednesday at the International Supercomputing Conference in Dresden, Germany.
Computing giant IBM has built a supercomputer that can operate at one petaflop 1,000 trillion floating point operations per second twice as fast as the world's previous fastest computer, IBM's Blue Gene.
It got delayed a few months, but a new, somewhat unusual supercomputer from Sun Microsystems will get formally unveiled next week.
Cognitive computing experts say the day that computers work like brains is getting closer.
IBM has broadened an effort to sell high-performance technical computers, expanding a largely server-centric unit to include storage, software and services, and giving the group a consolidated sales force.
Linux will be the main operating system for IBM's upcoming family of "Blue Gene" supercomputers--a major endorsement for the operating system and the open-source computing model it represents.
IBM is shedding light on a program to create the world's fastest supercomputer, illuminating a dual-pronged strategy, an unusual new processor design and a leaning toward the Linux operating system.
