PurSuiT Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Scientists at IBM Almaden, in tandem with scients at the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, said they'd performed the first near real time cortical simulation of the brain exceeding the scale of a cat cortex and with one billon spiking neuros and 10 trillion individual learning synapses. They also claimed that the system rivals the brain's low power and energy consumption. The simulation of the cat cortex used a simulator on the Lawrence Livermore Dawn Blue Gene/P supercomputer - it has 147,456 CPUs and 144 terabytes of memory. http://www.tgdaily.com/general-sciences-fe...prove-chip-tech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
