Based on the size, computing power and capabilities, the computers are divided in to several types. Let us have a look at these ranking from top to low. 1. Super Computer The fastest and extremely fast computer capable of execution hundreds of millions of instructions per second (MIPS) is called a Super computer. They are highly expensive (around 50-100 million dollars to a few billion dollars) and most powerful.  It can execute n* 10 power 10 to n* 10 power 50 operations per second ex. the NASA super computer Pleiades can execute 5.95 to 7.25 petaflops per second.  1petaflop = one thousand million million = 10 power 15 floating-point operations per second - FLOPS) The super computers are used in research purposes and in intense calculations like weather forecast, Earth quake studies, nuclear reactors & simulations, Astro physics, complex scientific operations etc. NASA uses super computers to launch satellites, rockets and for space exploration.

Hey there, It has been really long time since I made a technical post which is my forte. So here I am with my simplified and easy to understand post. Generations of Computers: In technical context generation may be referred to as the varied drastic growth in technology day to day. Computers have changed in various ways (in terms of its size, power and abilities) since their inception. The evolution of the electronic computers over time is categorized in to five generations with differences in terms of size, computing power and the technology used. First Generation:  Early 1940's to late 1950's - Vacuum Tubes Image Source: By Unknown - U.S. Army Photo, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=55124 The first generation computers were built using vacuum tubes (CPU) and magnetic drums (storage) and used machine language programming . Vacuum tubes are glass tubes without gas, with an electrode capable of controlling electron flo...

Ego - a very small three letter word with the power to destroy what ever comes its way. Be it a loving heart, or an intelligent brain, this ego shatters peace in to a billion pieces. Where does this ego reside? Where does it come from? Is there any living creature that has no traces of ego in it? I guess no! Ego steps in to our life right from the time we are born! What am I saying? Are kids egoistic too? Well, in my opinion, not really - but we can see some minor traces of ego even in the babies!  The moment a baby notices his/her mom give attention to someone else, it starts crying. The moment the mother puts the baby down from her arms, it starts weeping. Not to forget the moments when we have been seen teasing a little one calling his toys as ours or his mom as ours. I have also seen some little kids behave weird and egoistic when we try to caress them or fondle them. But they are not aware of it. Nor do we realise that its actually a shade of ego popping up in to the...

Are you Intelligent or emotional? Are you emotionally Intelligent or do you exhibit Intelligent emotions? Let's try to understand and explore. I am writing this post neither because I am emotional right now nor to show off my intelligence but to share my thoughts on the indispensable characteristics of living beings - the emotions and the Intelligence. We all are aware of what emotions are, but at some point of time in life we all wonder as to why do we get emotional - Don't we?  Emotions are natural responses to certain situations, circumstances, people or  things. Every one has different triggers to emotions and different levels at which their emotions get triggered. Some one may have well emotionally balanced mind but I personally refuse to believe that there could be any human, animal or any other living species without emotions. And I really find it too impractical and unreal when I read posts and suggestions saying things like you are the master of yo...

Hey there, Hope this post find you in the pink of health. Well, without wasting much time let's get to the actual content. A professor was addressing a gathering of young and middle aged audience. He made some arrangements to hand over a glass jar, few rocks, little sand, some pebbles and water to all the members in the auditorium. When the distribution of the above said things was over, the professor then asked them to fit in all the contents i.e sand, rocks, pebbles and water in to the jar given to them. But the jar was not big enough to accommodate all of those. Someone filled it up with sand and rocks and it was already full. Each person was trying and trying harder in different ways to complete the task but no body was successful. The professor then went on to demonstrate this. At first he put in all the rocks in to the jar. It was 2/3rd full already. He then poured little pebbles in to the jar and shook the jar. The little pebbles settled in the empty spaces b...

Is the following statement right? If yes, how? If no, why? "The world consists of only 10 types of people. First, the ones who understand binary and second, the ones who don't".
