The computer is an exaflop computer, but was not submitted to the TOP500 list; the first exaflop machine submitted to the TOP500 list was Frontier. Analysts suspected that the reason the NSCQ did not submit what would otherwise have been the world's first exascale supercomputer was to avoid inflaming political sentiments and fears within the ...
Computer Performance R; 1938 Germany: Personal research and development Berlin, Germany Konrad Zuse: Z1: 1.00 IPS [1] 1940 Z2: 1.25 IPS [2] 1941 Z3: 20.00 IPS [3] 1944 United Kingdom: Bletchley Park: Tommy Flowers and his team, Post Office Research Station: Colossus: 5.00 kIPS [4] 1945 United States: University of Pennsylvania: Moore School of ...
(a 42% increase) [22] Interestingly, the Arm A64FX core-count was only increased by 4.5%, to 7,630,848, but the measured performance rose much more on that benchmark (and the system does not use other compute capabilities, such as GPUs), and a little more on TOP500, or by 6.4%, to 442 petaflops, a new world record [23] and widening the gap to ...
The history of supercomputing goes back to the 1960s when a series of computers at Control Data Corporation (CDC) were designed by Seymour Cray to use innovative designs and parallelism to achieve superior computational peak performance. [1] The CDC 6600, released in 1964, is generally considered the first supercomputer.

Pupils at a Welsh school help create a new Minecraft game teaching youngsters about Welsh history.
TMS9900JL in ceramic package with gold-plated pins. The TMS9900 was designed as a single-chip version of the TI 990 minicomputer series, much like the Intersil 6100 was a single chip PDP-8 (12 bits), and the Fairchild 9440 and Data General mN601 were both one-chip versions of Data General's Nova.
Aurora is an exascale supercomputer that was sponsored by the United States Department of Energy (DOE) and designed by Intel and Cray for the Argonne National Laboratory. [2] It was briefly the second fastest supercomputer in the world from November 2023 to June 2024.
