In June 2012, the Green500 list rated BlueGene/Q, Power BQC 16C as the most efficient supercomputer on the TOP500 in terms of FLOPS per watt, running at 2,100.88 MFLOPS/watt. [7] In November 2010, IBM machine, Blue Gene/Q achieves 1,684 MFLOPS/watt. [8] [9] On 9 June 2008, CNN reported that IBM's Roadrunner supercomputer achieves 376 MFLOPS/watt.
Floating point operations per second (FLOPS, flops or flop/s) is a measure of computer performance in computing, useful in fields of scientific computations that require floating-point calculations. [1] For such cases, it is a more accurate measure than measuring instructions per second. [citation needed]
MIPS Computer Systems Inc. was founded in 1984 [11] by a group of researchers from Stanford University including John L. Hennessy and Chris Rowen.These researchers had worked on a project called MIPS (for Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipeline Stages), one of the projects that pioneered the RISC concept.
With 31% of the entire production of electronic goods in India in FY13, the communication and broadcasting equipment industry held a leading position, followed by consumer electronics at 23%. [8] In the April–June quarter of 2015, 24.8% of the cellphones transported into the nation were either assembled or made in India, an increase from 19.9 ...
In the early 1990s, MIPS began to license their designs to third-party vendors. This proved fairly successful due to the simplicity of the core, which allowed it to have many uses that would have formerly used much less able complex instruction set computer (CISC) designs of similar gate count and price; the two are strongly related: the price of a CPU is generally related to the number of ...
This was chosen because the 11/780 was roughly equivalent in performance to an IBM System/370 model 158–3, which was commonly accepted in the computing industry as running at 1 MIPS. Many minicomputer performance claims were based on the Fortran version of the Whetstone benchmark , giving Millions of Whetstone Instructions Per Second (MWIPS).
[11] [failed verification] When MIPS II was introduced, MIPS was renamed MIPS I to distinguish it from the new version. [3]: 32 MIPS Computer Systems' R6000 microprocessor (1989) was the first MIPS II implementation. [3]: 8 Designed for servers, the R6000 was fabricated and sold by Bipolar Integrated Technology, but was a commercial failure.
Low power flip-flops [1] are flip-flops that are designed for low-power electronics, such as smartphones and notebooks. A flip-flop, or latch, is a circuit that has two stable states and can be used to store state information.
