Tokyo Institute of Technology and Novell - A Novell Customer Success Story

[martinus787]

I'm sorry to asking it in here, but I'm pretty curious about which University is better for computer science between Tokyo Institute of Technology and University of Tokyo? Maybe there are someone out there that have some experiences studying in both University can share some information with me. Thank you in advance.

the japanese really love the imac!

Ever heard of HyperCard? I had it on a 1973 Apple Macintosh when I was 8. All you can do is move 32x32 pixel black and white images around but the language uses variables and functions so I consider it programming.

omg that guy can speak english good for a chinies guy

He's not Chinese. Do you know where Tokyo is?

[MasterDewayne]

i was jk

I was going to take that comment as a joke, but it really disturbs me. The fact that your intelligence is below a monkey.

Here is a question for you.

On what country the city of Tokyo located?

[noxxrun]

Japanese fool xD.

do you know where Tokyo is located?

not to mention, nearly /all/ people at university level in japan know English. As well as Japanese, and even some other languages.

Japanese people are some of the absolute smartest in the world, hence why they are a leader in computing tech.

LOL. Plus, your grammer and spelling sucks. Oh my god.

T*hat

good E*nglish

Chinese.

MasterD is dumptbacke?

[initialxy]

wow this japanese dude speaks english surprisingly well. much better than any of my japanese friends.

hope their running Folding@Home on them computers. For those who dont know what Folding@Home is, do a google search. Basically its a distributed computing project run by Stanford Uni allowing ppl to download software to help study protein folding... this hopefully will lead to a cure in many diseases such as cancer.

i know ur right

[xTNxNiNjA]

DANNNNG!!! 85teraflops i wish i had that =(

[Sapient192]

:( aww I was hoping for some specs...

[rdastrup]

What kind of specs are you looking for? Maybe I can get some answers for you. I shot the video and know the interviewee well enough to ask.

[Sapient192]

Thanks! Well, I'm only 18 and I've been programming computers for about 10 years, and I'm fascinated by facts and figures related to ever increasing computing power! Such as: Running at 'full speed', how many instructions per second could be processed by this super-computer? How many CPUs are there in total? What is the most compu-intensive application that has made use of this power? Just stuff like that makes me go WOW 0_0 ... and this video has already made me say that!

[rdastrup]

Just do a google search on Tsubame Supercomputer Japan and you will see a lot of facts and figures. Thanks again for your interest and keep it up!

Russ - Novell

[lordbyte7]

Hi,

I have seen the video from Sun and also this video and I was convinced this could only be realized with Solaris, I'm impressed over Suns AMD64 Opteron hardware, but a little bit disappointed over the choice to run Suse Linux.

I'd like to see specs from both Solaris and Linux.

Any chance some applications or benchmarks can be implemented on Solaris?

Is Solaris better on Sparc than AMD Opteron or what has been the driving decision behind this?

Best Regards

Morten Gulbrandsen

Here it is: use google and sun com blueprints

I still don't understand why and how Solaris 10 has been outmatched at this scale by Linux,
