Cray Gets $250M From DARPA To Realize "Adaptive Supercomputing" Vision
,----[ Quote ]
| Cray, AMD and Linux just got a collective $250M boost in the arm from
| the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
|
| In one of the most watched procurements ever, Cray and IBM are
| splitting a huge $494M grant from DARPA, unprecedented in its size
| even if it is over four years, to develop the last leg of their
| rival next-generation supercomputers, and Cray is going to be
| building its uncommon machines out of AMD chips and the Linux
| operating system, expecting the giants to be used commercially
| as well as in the airy precincts of government research labs.
