The Mexican government will build a supercomputer with a processing capacity seven times greater than the current most powerful computer in Latin America, officials responsible for the project said Wednesday.
Named Coatlicue, after a goddess in Aztec mythology representing the source of power and life, the computer will have a processing capacity of 314 petaflops.
“We want it to be a public supercomputer, a supercomputer for the people,” President Claudia Sheinbaum told reporters.
