    The top-performing supercomputer in the world right now is the Summit computer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. That computer reaches 150 petaflops, several thousand times as much processing power as a typical laptop. Several other top supercomputers reach a few dozen petaflops as well. But the big target in supercomputer construction right now is building the first exascale computer, capable of a quintillion calculations per second. Such a computer would be a million times faster than a typical desktop and could dramatically advance scientific and artificial intelligence research.

    Of course it means something to me, but I know damn well that it's means nothing to you!! If I asked you what floating point operations means you'd be totally stumped, because it's all sciency and you're a cretin.

    No of course not, despite the fact that I've worked in IT for over 30 years.

    I don't what a 'FLOP' is short for, maybe an historical throwback to a FLOPPY DISK and this is a 'floppy on steroids'. I just know it makes my head explode. A billion billion?? A QUINTILLION calculations per second? Say whaaaaat??? And I've never heard of 'petascale' till this ....

    Exascale computing refers to computing systems capable of at least one exaFLOPS, or a billion billion (i.e. a quintillion) calculations per second. Such capacity represents a thousandfold increase over the first petascale computer that came into operation in 2008.

    ADD:
    Peta (/ˈpɛtə/) is a decimal unit prefix in the metric system denoting multiplication by 1015 (1000000000000000). It was adopted as an SI prefix in the International System of Units in 1975, and has the symbol P. Peta is derived from the Greek πέντε, meaning "five".

    "We will try to run some big problems," Bland said, like testing and creating stronger, lighter manufacturing materials; using sound waves to model the inside of the Earth; and astrophysics projects exploring the origins of the universe.
    "For instance, we'll be looking into why supernovae explode," he said. "When stars explode, they create all of the elements we find in the universe, everything that's part of you and me and part of this planet gets created."
    The machine will become a user facility by early 2019. Scientists and researchers can then apply to use it to run their own experiments.
