I think there is something wrong with that article...
Supercomputers with around half a million cores have about 5000! Tflop/s not 16!

Sweet, I saw stampede about 6 months ago at a wordpress conference of all things. I had no idea it was number 7 in the world.

Journalists that think they understand numbers...
16 quadrillion in the UK is 16E24 (thanks Google!)
16,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
Which would be 16 YottaFlops.
16 TeraFlops wouuld be
16,000,000,000,000
But this is journalism, so zeros don't mean anything, do they!

I have to say quadrillion isn't a word I use often. But I can deduce from Wikipedia that we are therefore a 'long scale country' (quite right, unlike those small scale folk across the pond).
Which reminds me of billion, which is universally 1,000,000,000 these days, whereas the proper British billion in my childhood was 1,000,000,000,000. So maybe we're short after all.
Confusing stuff. I was only looking for the headline number of ops/sec, and it would appear the BBC are having difficulty reporting this correctly.

Nor I - hence the quick Google to see what it was!

I've found it's safer to use the correct word (milliard) when talking about US billions.
A few people might have to look it up the first time they see it, but it completely avoids any possible confusion.

Not too sure about that: I confused it with Mallard, and just bought a lot of ducks...

Fun fact: in South Africa we use both scales: short for English and long for Afrikaans.
What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

I thought the met-office recently (within the last couple of years) just got a new super-computer.......

Yes but this is a new super-super-computer!
(And I suspect it doesn't come with Windows 8 preinstalled)
