If you think "Sony" or "Toyota" when you think of Japan, you might just be as clueless as I've been about "the nation’s postwar order, which relied on colossal public works spending," according to the New York Times . I missed the Times story when it ran last month. I only found it because twice in as many weeks I've had the good luck to talk with a woman who moved...

World's Fastest Supercomputer Models Origins Of The Unseen Universe

A new "Roadrunner Universe" model requires a petascale computer because, like the universe, it's mind-bendingly large. The model's basic unit is a particle with a mass of approximately one billion suns (in order to sample galaxies with masses of about a trillion suns), and it includes 64 billion and more of those particles. The model is one of the largest simulations of the distribution of...
