Watson supercomputer is named after thomas watson, the founder of IBM. In terms of hardware, IBM Power 7 series processors are the most powerful processors in RISC architecture at present, which are made by 45nm process, with 32 threads in eight nuclear, the highest clock frequency is 4. 1GHz, and the second-level cache is 32MB. In terms of software, IBM R&D team developed more than 100 groups of algorithms for Watson, which can analyze problems, retrieve millions of pieces of information in 3 seconds, and then filter back "answers" and output them to human language.
