"The title of this page needs to be changed to Petascale Computing, and it needs to be more properly aligned under the supercomputing category. Most of the categories under supercomputing are actually objects, or theoretical ideas. This ""Petascale"" is a magnitude of the implementation of that technology with those ideals and therefore is dissimilar from the the other objects under supercomputing. This article might be served better to be a part of a new article under magnitudes of computing performance."
