Obama Issues Executive Order To Build Fastest Supercomputer By 2025
Today's leading supercomputer is in China, and Obama wants the U.S. to build one that is 20 times as fast.
A new arm of the U.S. government is working to create the world's fastest supercomputer within the next 10 years. President Obama signed an executive order on Wednesday creating the National Strategic Computing Initiative (NSCI), which will coordinate research, development, and deployment of ultra-powerful computer systems. NSCI's first task, according to the White House, is to whip up a computer 20 times more powerful than China's Tianhe-2—currently the leading supercomputer in the world.
