subject: Himfr.com Reports China's Tianhe No.1 The World's Fifth Asia First [print this page] China international super computer in creating history list
S global top 10 sets the fastest supercomputer, this is only the American products
Beijing time 18 to release the 34th global super computer 500 charts, China's first 1 quadrillion times computer "no.1" is the fifth river, the first in Asia. This is our super computer in the history of international charts.
National university of defense technology developed by the "tianhe no.1" super computer peak speeds and measured respectively 1206.19 trillion per speed and 563.1 trillion. In the world's top 10 list published in Taiwan's fastest supercomputer, this is only the American products. This list is by international organizations in Oregon TOP500 of super computation conference held in Portland.
Peak performance has reached the advanced world level
Since 1993, as a global installed on the super computer rank of authority by computer organization, the international TOP500 measurement speed (Linpack test value) as a benchmark, released two times each year to the world's fastest supercomputers 500.
Previously, the 4000A dawn dawn and 5000A twice in the super computer first 10.
"No.1" first "tianhe into global top five, marks China's super computer peak performance reached the advanced world level." Cas software ZhangYunQuan researcher, "said one," is the first adopted tianhe CPU/gpu mix of super computer systems, reflect the system structure of innovation.
Entering a new top 100 Chinese products and 5000A light and dark smoke 7,000 super computer. American clay "company Jaguar" (rolls per second) of actual performance 1759 trillion in times of peak times and 2331 trillion chart-topping performance.
List also indicate that the share of American to use 277 global 55.4% supercomputers. In mainland China are using supercomputers 21 sets, global 4.2%. The super computer main users include Britain, Germany, France and Japan etc.
China's manufacturing strong but application is not enough
ZhangYunQuan said, whether manufactured or application, the United States are occupying the super computer field of absolute advantage. Widely used in Europe but manufacturing capacity in China manufacturing weak, the strong but relatively insufficient applications.
"The application development." more than ZhangYunQuan said China super computer performance while made great progress, but application software to improve the level and in finance, insurance, software and information service applications such as also need to expand.
With the advent of the tianhe no.1 ", "China has become the world, after the United States to develop the super computer 1 quadrillion times. As China's national supercomputing tianjin center business host, "no.1" will be used in the tianhe international petroleum exploration data processing, biomedical research, aerospace equipment, etc, to provide users supercomputing service.
From the latest rankings, American and European super computer still possess obvious advantage deployed, the U.S. and European in 500 seats were occupied 277, Asia and the total 153 occupies 50 seats. In Asia, China occupies in the 500 seats, 21 in a leading position.
