How Computer Generation Going On ......


Twenty years ago nobody would have thought a supercomputer could fit into something as thin as a second IPAD It gives us something to think about the future of computers, but they will be shaped workstations, notebooks and tablets.

The best thing you can say about a computer is the way it develops and becomes part of our lives. Try to remember how your computer looked like in the 60s. Now look in your pocket. The smartphone you use every day is more powerful than the type of machine used in the scientific sense of numbers. Computers are part of an entire ecosystem, but we are interested in personal computers, especially laptops.

That leaves us with laptops, netbooks and shelves. The most interesting is that the generation IPAD second faster than the mid-80's supercomputer, Cray ie 2. Also, if you take the two nuclei of the two IPAD can be compared with supercomputers, 1994. So it took about 17 years to transfer the processing power of an entire room of motherboards to a "magical" device.

When it comes to current Intel laptops Sandy Bridge is miles ahead of last year's processors and supercomputing light years from the last century. So we think that all engineers who dare to push the limits every day.
