IBM unveils giant computing grid in China
Reuters, 10.13.03, 7:15 AM ET


BEIJING, Oct 13 (Reuters) - International Business Machines Corp (nyse: IBM - news - people) unveiled in China on Monday the company's most powerful computing grid ever, tapping the nascent computing trend in one of the world's fastest-growing technology markets.

The China grid system, a cluster of servers and computers linked through the Internet to achieve superior computing speeds, will be capable of performing 15 trillion calculations per second, IBM said in a statement.

The grid's computing power is expected to be second only to the Japanese government's Earth Simulator supercomputer, a $500 million machine that crunches more than 35 trillion calculations per second, it said.
