Slashdot calls it "A Million Node Supercomputer"
in the scooping-doctor-soong department article at
http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/11/07/07/1436259/A-Million-Node-Supercomputer
about Steve Furber at the University of Manchester.

http://www.thinq.co.uk/2011/7/7/acorns-steve-furber-looks-arm-supercomputers/
is the in-depth article about Furber's "SpiNNaker",
or Spiking Neural Network architecture, a maspar
(massively parallel) computing system.

http://code.google.com/p/mindforth/wiki/BrainTheory
is the basis for the Mentifex AI Mind free on-line at
http://www.scn.org/~mentifex/AiMind.html
in a JavaScript tutorial version and desperately
in need of a host supercomputer as residence.

http://cyborg.blogspot.com is the on-line
archive chronicling the development of
AI mind-design for Linux supercomputers.

Interesting. Does anyone know whether Furber's approach
is related with the Human Brain Project?
