The top computer science award is the ACM Turing Award, generally regarded as the Nobel Prize equivalent for Computer Science. [1] Other highly regarded top computer science awards include IEEE John von Neumann Medal awarded by the IEEE Board of Directors, and the Japan Kyoto Prize for Information Science.
Rank – Position within the TOP500 ranking. In the TOP500 list table, the computers are ordered first by their Rmax value. In the case of equal performances (Rmax value) for different computers, the order is by Rpeak. For sites that have the same computer, the order is by memory size and then alphabetically.
The Utah Teapot is one of the most iconic image in computer graphics. [4] It was designed by Martin Newell, inspired by an actual Melitta teapot he purchased from a department store in Salt Lake City.
