World-record Supercomputer Mimics Human Sight Brain Mechanisms
Less than a week after Los Alamos National Laboratory’s Roadrunner supercomputer began operating at world-record petaflop-per-second data-processing speeds, Los Alamos researchers are already using the computer to mimic extremely complex neurological processes.
Welcome to the new frontier of research at Los Alamos: science at the petascale.
The prefix “peta” stands for a million billion, also known as a quadrillion. For the Roadrunner supercomputer, operating at petaflop/s performance means the machine can process a million billion calculations each second.
