HPE Frontier at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility is the world's first exascale supercomputer. Exascale computing refers to computing systems capable of calculating at least 10 18 IEEE 754 Double Precision (64-bit) operations (multiplications and/or additions) per second (exa FLOPS)"; [1] it is a measure of supercomputer performance.
2×10 3: UNIVAC I, first American commercially available electronic general-purpose stored program digital computer, 1951 [2] 3×10 3: PDP-1 commercial minicomputer, 1959 [2] 15×10 3: IBM Naval Ordnance Research Calculator, 1954; 24×10 3: AN/FSQ-7 Combat Direction Central, 1957 [2] 30×10 3: IBM 1130 commercial minicomputer, 1965 [2]
1.442695 bits (log 2 e) – approximate size of a nat (a unit of information based on natural logarithms) 1.5849625 bits (log 2 3) – approximate size of a trit (a base-3 digit) 2 1: 2 bits – a crumb (a.k.a. dibit) enough to uniquely identify one base pair of DNA: 3 bits – a triad(e), (a.k.a. tribit) the size of an octal digit 2 2: nibble
Note that besides integer (or fixed-point) arithmetics, examples of integer operation include data movement (A to B) or value testing (If A = B, then C). That's why MIPS as a performance benchmark is adequate when a computer is used in database queries, word processing, spreadsheets, or to run multiple virtual operating systems.
Apple and Epic Games, the game company behind "Fortnite," have been fighting since 2020. After essentially banning "Fortnite" four years ago, Apple is grudgingly letting it back on its devices ...
If you play Fortnite, you might be eligible for a refund after Epic Games was fined by the FTC.
This approach is easily scalable in a cost-effective manner but has the drawbacks of increased latency, increased power consumption when moving data between dies at around 1.5 picojoules per bit, and it cannot achieve the connection density needed for high-bandwidth GPUs. [8]
Epic Games agreed to pay $245 million in refunds to Fortnite players who federal regulators say were "tricked" into making unwanted in-game purchases.
