Believe it or not, SAGE was actually equipped with the technology to launch and control interceptor planes such as the FB Voodoo and F-4 Phantom , and air defense missiles. SAGE remained in continuous operation between and , with thousands of people all over North America constantly scanning their radar screens for Soviet attacks, all hankering for an opportunity to launch a radio-controlled nuke. As we now know, though, SAGE probably saw little if any action throughout its 21 years of operation.
Now read: The history of supercomputers. In late , the Piz Daint supercomputer in Lugano, Switzerland gained a huge hardware upgrade. That new power tripled its computing performance and brought its theoretical peak performance up to Named after a mountain in the Swiss Alps, the Piz Daint also creates advanced visualizations and high-resolution imaging simulations. Currently ranked as the fastest supercomputer in the world , the Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer measures in at petaFLOPS theoretical peak —five times as fast as the supercomputer in second place.
Housed in the National Supercomputing Center in Wuxi, it is comprised of On top of being the fastest supercomputer in the world, the Sunway TaihuLight is currently ranked as the fourth most energy-efficient one as well, requiring substantially fewer megawatts per megaFLOPS.

Competitive Computing The experience of using a computer today is nothing like it was a few decades ago. Some of these components very much like a standard desktop computer include: Transistors : Electronic circuits require the fast and precise movement of electronic signals.
Ubisoft continues to build Siege up as it seems that the game will only continue to get bigger going forward. The game is big enough without them thanks to all the maps and operators, but including the HD textures does beef its total up considerably.
The saviors of the land of Lucis in this title are not a rag-tag band of misfits like in a lot of its contemporary RPGs, but the long-time friends of Prince Noctis, Gladiolus, Ignis and Prompto. Like its predecessors, the role-playing and open world of Final Fantasy XV are more than enough to charm players but add the melee combos of all four characters and the subtle details painstakingly carved into the game and you will be glued to your screen for hours on end.
The base game on its own stands at 85GB in size but the addition of a high-resolution pack brings it to a total of GB. With the DLC factored in, Hitman 2 essentially allows for players to play through its predecessor as well, making it a sort of 2-for-1 type deal. Given how much work is put into making these games as open and creative as they are, this should be much of a surprise. Following its announcement a while back and the massive success of its predecessors, the months leading up to the release of Red Dead Redemption 2 were filled with enthusiastic anticipation.
It was eventually released in for various platforms and in November for Microsoft Windows. Though delayed for PC gamers, exploration of the game has been anything but boring.
From engaging in shootouts with rival gangs to executing daring heists and enjoying scenic rides on horseback, Red Dead Redemption 2 offers everything the Wild West had to offer and more. Another recently released game to make this list, Destiny 2: Shadowkeep is a first-person shooter game. Piz Daint is a Swiss-owned supercomputer and the fastest in Europe. This allowed it to climb five positions up in the top ten with a performance of It provides advanced visualization technology and imaging simulations of high resolution.
Titan is the fastest supercomputer in the United States and the fourth most powerful in the world. It was for many years the most powerful supercomputer in the world until it was overtaken by the Tianhe-2 in It has a practical peak performance of It is used for research in various fields such as astrophysics, molecular physics, and climate science.
