XBOX 360的“PowerPC”将被用于构建美国军方最快的超级计算机.

由美国IBM公司所设计的处理器“PowerPC”将会被美国海军建立的美国军方运算速度最快的超级电脑上，而“PowerPC”则是IBM公司为微软的次世代家用游戏主机XBOX 360设计的处理器。

据悉，美国海军已经向IBM购买了一套超级计算机系统,用于进行全球气象模型的模拟。这台超级电脑搭载了IBM为XBOX 360设计的"PowerPC"处理器.

这台超级电脑虽然没有3个篮球场那么大，但是依然成为了美国军方最快的超级计算机.并且不用等到2008年,现在就可以投入使用，其基本系统为IBM的AIX操作系统 。

目前世界上运算速度虽快的超级电脑是IBM制造的“Blue Gene／L”。

光是PowerPC这个名字……怎么说明就是360的那个。

cell从技术角度看也是PowerPC的改进型。

XO也不甘落后模拟地球了，看来360这个名词早有企图~~~

怎么说呢。。。

就是这种东西拿出来说真没意思~~~，话说xbox用的p系列的芯片歪门邪道的应用多呢~~说出来有意思嘛~~能代表什么~

恩，有些本无意义的事情，点到为止，点到为止

MANHASSET, NY — The Naval Oceanographic Office has purchased a supercomputer system from IBM Corp. which has a peak speed of 20 teraflops, the fastest in the U.S. military.
The supercomputer will enable the U.S. Navy to enhance its global-scale modeling and simulation capabilities, ensuring that the U.S. fleet will have the most accurate weather forecast information critical to naval operations.

"We are particularly pleased to acquire a nearly 3,000-processor system — the largest single system that we have ever fielded," said Cray Henry, director of the Defense Department's HPC Modernization Program.

The "operational availability and resilience of these new systems will be critical elements of our support to the Navy and the Department of Defense," said Steve Adamec of the Naval Oceanographic Office's.

The supercomputer consists of eServer p655 systems connected with IBM's clustering technology. Each of the new high-performance computing systems is based on POWER4+ microprocessors, and uses the AIX operating system.

The naval office supports some of the world's most computationally intensive R&D projects, known as "Challenge Projects", representing critical DoD research projects. They include new military aircraft, ship and vehicle designs, improved missile and projectile design as well as advanced research in global high-resolution meteorology and oceanography

原文在此。不知道译者那只眼睛YY到了xbox360

SONY有出钱研发CELL的，POWER可是IBM自家的同MS无关

无聊


CELL的核心是？？？？

真可悲啊，只有20teraflop。

嘿嘿,crap!! 详细请参照联动贴.

不过也没有三个篮球场那么大...

好几年前的合同啦，XO/PS3/Wii都找IBM要cpu可见powerPC架构的魅力啊。
对了，这样powerful的超级电脑，使用的linux系统啊，也就是PS3上采用的系统，为什么不用Bill叔叔家的XP呢？？？
