Cray announces BlackWidow supercomputer

Posted on Thursday, June 29 2006 @ 00:42:43 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck |
Cray has announced a new supercomputer platform called BlackWidow. It's designed for massive vector processing and will be available later this year:
"Building on the success of the Cray X1E system, the new BlackWidow supercomputer will give scientists and engineers a powerful computational tool that offers dramatically improved price/performance and enhanced capabilities designed to solve complex problems that are beyond the abilities of cluster systems using commodity processors," said Peter Ungaro, Cray's president and CEO. "The tightly integrated design will allow customers to configure an optimal mix of vector and scalar computing resources in a single supercomputer running the familiar Linux operating system. This will also give our Cray XT3 customers the opportunity to add high-bandwidth, vector capability in small, cost-effective increments."
