The CDC 8600 was the last of Seymour Cray's supercomputer designs while he worked for Control Data Corporation. As the natural successor to the CDC 6600 and CDC 7600, the 8600 was intended to be about 10 times as fast as the 7600, already the fastest computer on the market. The design was essentially four 7600's, packed into a very small ...
In addition to the redesign of the 8600, CDC had another project called the CDC STAR-100 under way, led by Cray's former collaborator on the 6600/7600, Jim Thornton. Unlike the 8600's "four computers in one box" solution to the speed problem, the STAR was a new design using a unit that we know today as the vector processor. By highly pipelining ...
On January 6, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that it had found at least 52 confirmed cases of the more contagious SARS-CoV-2 variant: 26 in California, 22 in Florida, two in Colorado, and one each in Georgia and New York. The agency also stressed that there could already be more cases in the country.
The CDC estimates that, between February 2020 and September 2021, only 1 in 1.3 COVID-19 deaths were attributed to COVID-19. [2] The true COVID-19 death toll in the United States would therefore be higher than official reports, as modeled by a paper published in The Lancet Regional Health – Americas. [3]
The most recent CDC guidelines state that you should stay home and away from others while you're sick with any respiratory virus, including COVID-19. And you shouldn't go back to your usual ...
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Monday sowed confusion over its stance on the airborne transmission of the coronavirus.
The CDC would later have to conclude after months of further experience involving more than 700,000 screenings that temperature and symptom-based entry screening was ineffective likely due to multiple factors including an overall low COVID-19 prevalence in travelers, the relatively long incubation period, illness presentation with a wide range ...
"While Covid-19 remains a concern we are seeing fewer hospitalizations and Covid-related deaths as compared to last year — likely a result of widespread vaccination and prior infection," a CDC ...
