Spain to build Europe's largest Supercomputer

The Spanish government has agreed to spend 70 million euros ($87 million) building the world's second most powerful supercomputer. The decision to construct the supercomputer, which will be the most powerful in Europe, is the result of a deal between the government and the Spanish branch of computer giant IBM. The system will be at the heart of a planned national supercomputer centre for scientific research on medicine, climate change, and new materials for aeronautics and mechanical engineering.
