Test Your Luck at Jeopardy
by Joe Polastre |
Jun 19 2010
I wrote earlier about IBM's high density Blue Gene/P data center that is a state of the art HPC system fitting tons of computing power into a small space. It pushes the envelope in a number of ways, including how to keep it cool, and how to provide enough power at such high density.
This weekend, the New York Times Magazine profiled Watson, the system running on the Blue Gene/P cluster at the T.J. Watson Research Center in order to take on humans at Jeopardy! The article is lengthy, but the video is equally entertaining.
IBM has their own website too that explains Watson.
