When it comes to Supercomputing, historically, the top dog on the circuit has been IBM’s BlueGene\/L with its 478+ teraflop (trillions of floating point ops\/sec) horsepower, at the ready for solving some of the world’s most critical problems and calculations. Applications, like those being researched at the US Department of Energy, take enormous resources.
