#Blue Gene/L
Neat little plug on InformationWeek >Information Week on IBM’s Blue Gene/L and how it has surpassed Japan’s Earth Simulator, hitting 135.3 teraflops (more than twice its September record). Still, I may need someone to explain the following statement to me: “…simulate the performance and safety of nuclear weapons…”


I guess it means the relative safety of the new-cue-ler device in storage, prior to blowing up and killing a bunch of people.
