Designed for tasks where needed so much computing capacity, such as to simulate a nuclear test, ASCI Red was the first computer to exceed the teraflops, a thousand billion floating point operations per second, in the classic test parameter for the speed of the computer.
These cloud computing specialists operate vast squadrons of servers in suburban office parks, allowing customers anywhere to rent as much or as little computer capacity as they need.
(See the exhibit "The New Brokers of Work"). Much as "cloud computing" services offer on-demand access to computer capacity and storage space, these firms offer "crowd computing"—on-demand access to large groups of appropriately specialized workers.
The foundation plans to double computer capacity today to 200,000 simultaneous users, a spokeswoman said.
Meanwhile, Mulder finds much computer hardware inside the trailer.
This means that a quantum computer has much greater capacity for storing information.
The size of the existing DNA or protein sequence database is so large that we cannot process it by a single computer system efficiently, no matter how much storage capacity and computing power the system has.
On March 18th the Silicon Valley computer-maker had planned to unveil a new online service to allow start-ups to manage with much less hardware, by buying computing capacity from a "cloud", rather like electricity from the grid.
However, rule matching in production system is time-consuming too much and it always incur the system crash when the massive knowledge exceeds the limitations of memory and computing capacity of one single computer.
Now, I don't want to sound like the scolding fish, who is on hand here, in a much-diminished, computer-animated capacity, to warn about the consequences of bad behavior.
