The world's fastest computer: 3386 million calculations per second

In November 2014, the 'tianhe-2' supercomputer developed by China University of Defense Science and technology set a world record at a sustained computing speed of 3386 million operations per second. The supercomputer is currently being developed by a scientific research team of 1300 scientists and engineers at Sun Yat sen University in Guangdong Province.

The fastest train in the world: 581 km / h

The world's fastest train, jointly manufactured by Japan's Central Railway Corporation and Kawasaki heavy industries, created an amazing speed of 581 km / h on December 2, 2003. The experimental MLX01 maglev train operates through maglev without wheel, axle and bearing.
