“In certain applications, such as our massive ensemble of climate simulation, we are achieving greater than supercomputer levels of computing power.”
Carl Christensen
“That's ten times bigger than the world's largest supercomputer ... for less than 1 percent the cost.”
Pat Gelsinger
“Computation has become a tool for all the sciences, ... We need an approach that scales from the smallest supercomputer up to the largest.”
Bill Gates
“We need an approach here that scales from the smallest supercomputer up to the very largest,”
“It could spark the production of supercomputers that fit into the palm of your hand or tiny devices to fight disease and repair injuries from inside our bodies,”
Bill Richardson
“What we are not trying to do is build an FPGA supercomputer. What we are trying to do is build a simulator system.”
Dave Patterson
“[the crew has been "killed" in a simulator accident] Jim Lovell: Well, Deke; if I had a dollar for every time I've been killed in that thing, I wouldn't have to work for you. We'll get it together by launch time.”
