Accelerated computing to accelerate computing
Moore's Law, that is instructions to the processor's silicon-based computing performance every 18 months to grow into a two-speed, Intel announced a major breakthrough in the use of super-UV will be before the year 2007 can be placed on a chip 1 billion transistors. By Motorola as the rise of other materials such as gallium mixture (gallium), arsenic (arsenide) and silicon, will be able to develop up to 70 GHz processor speed, another peak, but with the processing performance and the progress of a single system chip, the super computer the concept has grown to cover a large array or grid computing.
In addition to these in accelerating the computing speed of the linear evolution (linear changes), also include molecular computing, DNA computing, quantum computing and optical computing and other technologies. Germany's Max Planck Institute's scientists have created the world's first bio-chips (bio-chip), will link a number of transistors made from a nail in 20 neurons, this bio-silicon (bio-silicon) circuit is not yet The research objectives can be reached - with nerve cells and silicon, but it provides a by-principle basis. So perhaps both for the future development of a memory, thinking and ability to execute pave the way for ultra-fast devices.
The same concept used in the Binary data processing, it may face a substantial increase in computing performance on the new challenges. The human genetic code, as represented by four letters - A, T, C and G, instead of Binary code, and perhaps natural realized that this is the best way for information encryption, and information processing also needs a new revolution.
Accelerator
Accelerator, the use of special hardware circuit, the processor (CPU) or die (CHIP) to accelerate certain computing functions. Commonly used in the graphics card can be 2D or 3D graphics for rendering common calculation and design, can accelerate the drawing speed can also reduce the CPU burden.
