Computers that can perform a quintillion calculations per second are being planned by the US military.
The Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) has awarded the first grants to firms it wants to build so-called exascale computers.
These will be far more powerful than current top supercomputers which manage just over one petaflop - 1000 trilliion calculations per second.
Darpa expects the first prototypes to be working by 2018.
