My Life, My Music

When I discovered that Slovenia had spent a very large amount of money to become part of a super computer network in Europe I felt it would be interesting to make a programme around this new venture. The new Peta-scale computer, named after the Slovenian mathematician Jure Vega, will come into operation in March 2011 and it will be a joint operation between the Euro HPC and the Institute of Information Science of the University of Maribor, where the director is Dr Aleš Bošnjak. We spoke about this computer and computing technology in general and I also discovered that Aleš is a keen pianist, coming from a very musical family.
