Pleiades is a petascale supercomputer built by SGI at NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California. As of June 2011[update], it was the world's seventh fastest computer[1] with a peak performance of more than 970 teraflops. After further extensions, Pleiades is scheduled to reach 10 petaflops in 2012.[2]
