Cray Introduces Adaptive Supercomputing

David Greene writes "HPCWire has a story about Cray's newly-introduced vision of Adaptive Supercomputing. The new system will combine multiple processor architectures to broaden applicability of HPC systems and reduce the complexity of HPC application development. Cray CTO Steve Scott says, 'The Cray motto is: adapt the system to the application - not the application to the system.'"

Cray?

I didn't even know Cray still existed. Maybe it was Sony's "emotion engine" [wikipedia.org] that almost killed them. ;)

I'll pre-order the next version

so that I can play Duke Nukem Forever on it.

This begs the question...

So if I want to run Mine Sweeper, Cray will adapt one of their supercomputers to the requirements of this game? Sweet!

Ah, that's nuthin'. Mr. Scott used a Mac to repair the Enterprise, and Jeff Goldblum used one to repel an alien invasion!
