CHINA UNVEILS NEW SUPERCOMPUTER
(Source: Computerworld Hong Kong) Chinas National Research
Center for Intelligent Computing Systems has developed a
supercomputer capable of processing 20 billion floating point
operations per second (20 Gflops), according to a Mainland press
report.

Sandia's serendipitously named ASCI Red must now play second
fiddle to China's Dawning 2000-I system. The "China Machine"
has a peak performance of 20 Gflops. That would beat ASCI's
18.3 Gflop r/peak on the LINPACK benchmark. Anyone know what
HP's Teramac machine's R/peak is? Does the LINPACK benchmark
even capture the capability of a quantum computer?
