(Columbus) -- Battelle Memorial Institute says it's building the world's fastest supercomputer. The machine, expected to be capable of 1,000 trillion operations per second when completed in 2008, is being built at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee. Ohio State and Battelle will use the machine to join forces for biomedical research and create commercial applications for new technology. Among the collaborations at Ohio State are nanotechnology, designing devices on a molecular scale, and biomedical informatics, which uses supercomputers to clarify and interpret huge amounts of medical data.
