Well, over at CPDN some time ago they were talking about mega monster models that required series hardware at home... not like 8 running concurrent, but 1 at the time. That would be fine with me too.

Exciting News: Alan was at the White House today at an industry & academia summit for the administration’s Materials Genome Initiative at which the Clean Energy Project was high-lighted as one of the flagship projects. This is an amazing honor for the project, the Harvard and IBM teams, and all our crunchers! Check out (and share) this link! More press coverage to come!

You guys may be interested in this work at Berkeley Lab. http://newscenter.lbl.gov/news-releases/2012/05/13/electricity-from-viruses/ produces up to six nanoamperes of current and 400 millivolts of potential. I believe I generate way more voltage when one of my systems catches a virus (he deadpans). Still, if you could lace underwear (he deadpans, again) in America with such a virus we could finally make our increasingly sedentary ways productive. |
