Exascale Supercomputer Can Do a Quintillion Calculations a Second

Scientific American, Sarah Scoles, , ORNL, February 9, 2023

Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Frontier supercomputer, the world's first declared exascale computer, can perform one quintillion calculations per second and is 2.5 times faster than the world's second-fastest computer. Frontier, which came online last year, will soon be joined by exascale supercomputers El Capitan at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Aurora at Argonne National Laboratory. While the primary goal of these devices is to run calculations to help maintain the nuclear weapons stockpile overseen by the U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration, they also will be used to solve intractable problems in pure science.Semantic Web For The Working Ontologist, Third Edition: Effective Modeling In RDFs And Owl  ....
