The largestneuromorphic supercomputerin the world was connected.
A machine designed and built to work just the way a brain works.
A computer that has a million processor cores.
Scientists have developed a variety of methods to better understand the brain, including the use of supercomputers.
This superstructure is capable of executing 200 billion shares per second.
SpiNNaker is 20 years old and close to $19.5 million in production cost.
The supercomputer was designed and built by theUniversity of Manchester Computer Science School.
Construction began in 2006 and the supercomputer was finally connected yesterday.
Most computers send information from one point to another using a standard connection.
This supercomputer uses electronic circuits tomimic neurons.
SpiNNaker completely rethinks how conventional computers work.
It was also used to controlSpOmnibot, a robot that processes visual information and navigates towards its targets.
Thehuman brain contains about 100 billion neuronsconnected through 1 billion synapses.
The SpiNNaker brings us one step closer to a better understanding of the human brain.
