exaflop

• Pat expects by 2017 it will be possible to create a complete genetic simulation of a cell, which would require an exaflop (10 to the 18th power floating-point operations) per second. —  Next Big Future
• From a 38 page study of detailing petaflop and exaflop scale computing challenges —  Next Big Future
• "The next speed is 'exaflop' - 10 to the 18th power." —  The Guardian World News
• The Sandia boffins say that multicore systems have successfully taken supercomputing into the petaflop (a quadrillion floating-point operations per second) era, but they aren't going to break the exaflop barrier without something new. —  The Register
• "Jaguar" petaflop machine, on an exaflop push called the Institute for Advanced Architectures. —  The Register
