NICT, a Japanese governmental organization launched a new public NTP service.
According to this article, their new server can handle one million NTP
requests per second and its precision seems to be less than 10 nano seconds.
What impressive for me was that they made a special hardware accelerator
card specialized in NTP. That reminded me of GRAPE and PhysX,
and I'm wondering if it's possible to construct a kind of general purpose
meta hardware accelerator card using reconfigurable chips.
Self-contradiction?
So what? :o
