A rise of the machines is no longer just a fiction. The scenes from the Terminator series become more realistic day by day. Nobody is surprised any longer by the news about creation of the artificial intelligence or superpower computers. Such information is published with increasing frequency. Probably, machines decided to lull the vigilance of the mankind in such a way.
Reportedly, a new superpower computer may appear soon. The European Union spares no expense and plans to allocate as much as 1 billion euros for creation of such a computer. Along with that, developers are required to fulfill this task in a rather short time. The deadline for delivery of work is 2020. By that time the customer should be presented with two supercomputers and at least two systems. As for the technical aspects, the requirements are also very high. These superpower machines should perform one hundred quadrillion operations per second.
Importantly, if the developers succeed in completing this order, then they will get a new task to create a supercomputer capable of performing one quintillion operations per second.
