| 14 October, 2011

VentureBeat’s Dean Takahashi interviews Steve Scott, chief technology officer at Nvidia’s Tesla group, on GPU computing in the new Oak Ridge National Laboratory supercomputer.

Steve Scott, chief technology officer for Tesla graphics chip products at Nvidia, was feeling pretty good this week after the Oak Ridge National Laboratory announced it will build the world’s fastest supercomputer using 18,000 high-end graphics chips from Nvidia. The new kind of supercomputer means that graphics chips have finally become as important as the microprocessor in tackling the world’s most difficult computing problems. That should cause a sea change in revenues for the chip industry.
