IBM Corp. said it is offering its first systems based on the Cell processor it co-developed with Sony and Toshiba.
IBM said its BladeCenter QS20 is based on the Cell BE blade system that leverages high-performance computing power and the ability to run graphic-intensive applications. IBM said it expects the BladeCenter QS20 to broaden use of Cell BE in medical imaging, aerospace, military, digital animation and communications applications.
Cell BE's multicore architecture and high-speed communications reportedly deliver response times approaching supercomputers.
