There is a certain prestige for a country to more or less "own" the world's most powerful supercomputer, and the Department of Energy (DOE) has announced that they have just turned on such a behemoth, calling it the Titan. At the DOE's Oak Ridge National Laboratory facility, its latest Titan system has gone live, where it is capable of performing a whopping 20,000 trillion calculations a second, hitting the 20 petaflops mark – which is actually 10 times more powerful compared to the laboratory's Jaguar supercomputer, once billed as the world's most powerful supercomputer, lying in sixth place today.
