Does anyone know who or how answers are checked? Petaflop production vs. accuracy? That could be a gut-wrenching expose`. To Laszio, Excellant questions.

Does anyone ever check the computer's answers? What about the parameters programmed into the software, can the paradigm accurately simulate nature? Models, after all, help, us grasp complex topics by over simplification. Maybe the strength of Quantum's in open-ended questions. Instead of determinism, nature may be probability & statistical mechanics. Roll the Petra-Dice! What about the fidelity of these calculations? Does anyone ever check the computer's answers?
