Intel today announced that its latest Intel Itanium 2 processor powers the world's fastest supercomputer.
Intel has congratulated NASA and SGI on building Project Columbia, a system that boasts a world-record speed of 42 trillion floating point operations per second (42 teraFLOP/s) and was deployed in less than six months.
A few weeks ago IBM announced it had the fastest supercomputer with its new new Blue Gene/L that is capable of doing 36.01 teraflops.
