Supercomputers beat people coming to Vietnam
The Watson computer that won two outstanding players in the live TV show Jeopardy (USA) will be on display and allow people to experience it directly in Vietnam in early May.
Watson Computers will be introduced during the annual Smart Technology conference and exhibition with the topic " Smarter Computing" in Hanoi (Melia Hotel on May 5) and HCMC (Intercontinental Hotel on 12th). / 5) organized by IBM.
Computers had "knocked out" a chess champion and earlier this year , the computer won for the first time in a quiz program. Unlike Google and online search engines, just list the documents that contain the answers (not the correct answers), Watson must understand the question and calculate in countless potential options to Get accurate and unique answers in seconds.

It took IBM engineers four years to build this transcendental system. It is equipped with POWER7 processor with the ability to handle any specific workload and the ability to analyze millions of data items and perform thousands of simultaneous tasks at very high speeds that previously only supercomputers can do it.
" As our planet becomes smarter, computing systems must also grow. Watson shows a tremendous advance in the capacity of IT systems to identify patterns and collect information. important and improve the ability to make accurate and fastest decisions, "said Mr. Thieu Phuong Nam, Deputy General Director of IBM Vietnam. "Watson's computer is not only a symbol for 100 years of IBM's creation but above all, it is an important breakthrough in the field of human information science ."
Smart Technology seminars and exhibitions are IBM's annual activities aimed at introducing the latest innovations and innovations to customers, partners and businesses operating in different areas of the market.
