TOKYO — Fujitsu Ltd., the world’s second-largest computer maker, today unveiled a new series of mainframe computers that it called the world’s fastest.
The unveiling comes one day before an expected announcement by International Business Machines Corp. of a new line of mainframes.
The companies are gearing up for competition to sell a new generation of improved high-end computers. NEC Corp. and Hitachi Ltd. brought out new models in June and July.
“In terms of performance, our machine is about 10% faster than both NEC’s and Hitachi’s,” said Toshio Hiraguri, managing director of Fujitsu’s Computer Systems Group.
