What Makes a Supercomputer?

From the creator

How do engineers build today's supercomputers, and how are the world's fastest computers ranked? We visit the Texas Advanced Computing Center, home of one of the world's top supercomputing clusters, to learn about and how researchers tap into petaflops of processing power. We're talking about a system with 270 Terabytes of RAM and 14 Petabytes of storage! Learn more about TACC's Stampede supercomputer here: https://www.tacc.utexas.edu/stampede/
