Notebooks And Computers - A unique computer that can 'think' has been created by researchers from IBM, where they then simulate the cat cerebral cortex, using a supercomputer. IBM created computer using processor 147.456, where most modern PCs today have at most only one or two processors. In addition, also equipped with mainmemory 144TB, 100.000 times from a computer owned today.

Simulation is run 100 times slower than real cat brain. Supercomputer is able to display corporate logos, including IBM and other parts of the brain simulation dri working together to find the meaning of the picture. Supercomputer according Dharmendra Modha, cognitive computing manager of IBM Research, even if it can identify the logo image a bit blurry or unclear.

Parties had previously IBM simulate the performance of 40 per cent mouse brain in 2006, full mouse brain in rodents in 2007 and 1 percent of the human cerebral cortex of the brain in this year, using a larger supercomputer. Supercomputer is presented at the conference in Portland, Oregon, but that does not mean that computers can 'think' like a cat or a robot-cat.
