Fujitsu aims to deliver by early 2011 a 10-petaflop supercomputer, which would be almost 10 times more powerful than today’s fastest system. Fujitsu is building the supercomputer for Japan’s Institute of Physical and Chemical Research, known as RIKEN. The system will be based on Fujitsu’s upcoming Sparc64 VIIIfx processor, which has eight processor cores.
