Australian scientists at the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems at Western Sydney University are developing a neuromorphic supercomputer, named DeepSouth, that aims to simulate the synaptic operations of a human brain at full scale. This supercomputer will be capable of 228 trillion synaptic operations per second, which is comparable to the estimated number of operations in the human brain. By using neuromorphic engineering, DeepSouth achieves high levels of parallel processing similar to the brain’s functioning and is set to be operational by April 2024.
