Fujitsu specialists created the fastest in the world central processor, capable of executing 128 billion calculations per second. It is assumed that the processor, which received the designation venus SPARC64 vIIIfx, will allow Fujitsu to go around its basic competitors – Intel and IBM – and to return the title of the most productive CPU creator, lost in 1999.
According to some estimation, Venus SPARC64 vIIIfx is faster that intel processor (Xeon 5500 on nehalem core  ) by approximately 2,5 times. After using the more advanced technical process, Fujitsu could place on the crystal eight core. Simultaneously it was possible to decrease the energy consumption : according to this index venus substantially exceeds its predecessors.
Tens thousands copies from the new processor can become the base of super-computer new generation, created in Japan. The introduction of system on their base is expected on 2010. Related Products :
