IU's Big Red Computer Loses Top Ranking

(BLOOMINGTON) - Indiana University can no longer boast about having the world’s fastest college computer.
Its IBM-made machine nicknamed Big Red is now the fourth fastest computer in the world. Big Red began operations at I.U. last August. At that time, it could perform more than 20-trillion numerical operations a second.
But now the super computer has been surpassed by computers at the universities of Texas, North Carolina and Caltech.
