Graph500 Ranks Supercomputers' Agility with Big Data

November 16, 2012 | A new supercomputing ranking compares how well machines deal with big datasets. The Graph500 benchmark was introduced in 2010 to rank how systems search for data in a large data set. Nine of the top ten systems on the list presented at SC2012 are IBM BlueGene/Q models. The top machine was the Sequoia at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Computerworld
