It is named after the Japanese word "kei", which stands for 10 quadrillion, [55] corresponding to the target speed of 10 petaFLOPS. On November 15, 2011, Intel demonstrated a single x86-based processor, code-named "Knights Corner", sustaining more than a teraFLOPS on a wide range of DGEMM operations.
A natural language numbering system allows for representing large numbers using names that more clearly distinguish numeric scale than a series of digits. For example "billion" may be easier to comprehend for some readers than "1,000,000,000".
