How Does the Future of Computing Look Like?
We’ll get long lasting batteries and teraflops chips, Big Data on Micro servers, GPU-accelerated Databases and super-speed Internet connections with gear that is already available:
Caltech and the University of Victoria have broken the world record for sustained, computer-to-computer transfer over a network. Between the SuperComputing 2011 (SC11) convention in Seattle and the University of Victoria Computer Centre, Canada — a distance of 134 miles (217km) — a transfer rate of 186 gigabits per second was achieved over a 100Gbps bidirectional fiber optic link; 98Gbps in one direction, 88Gbps in the other.
