The Global Super 500 List is released once every six months. This new list shows that the US Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory's supernumerary 'vernacle' has a floating-point speed of 12.23 billion per second. Million times, the peak value is approximately 18.77 billion times per second. Previously, Oak Ridge National Laboratory had released a message that the peak speed of the 'peak' operation was 20 billions per second.
American supercomputer expert Jack Tangala, a professor at the University of Tennessee, told Xinhua News Agency that the reason why the 'Vertex' computer is powerful is that its graphics processing unit can achieve 64 floating-point calculations.
Ranked second is China's super-calculated 'Shenwei Taihu Light' with 4 consecutive championships. Its floating-point operation speed remains unchanged at 9.3 billion per second. Then ranked third to fifth. The supercomputers are the 'ridges' of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under the United States Department of Energy, the Chinese Supercomputer 'Tianhe 2', and the Japanese Supercomputer 'Binary Cloud Infrastructure' (ABCI).
From the total number of lists, the number of Chinese supercomputers continued to increase from 202 units in January last year to 206 units, while the United States reduced from 144 units to 1024 units. From the perspective of China, Lenovo’s ‘12,000 players’ accounted for 23.2%. US International Business Machines Corporation has provided technology for this super-final 'vernacion.'
Judging from the processors used by the supercomputer, Intel Corporation still dominates the US. Among the 500 supercomputers on the list, 479 use Intel's core, accounting for 95.2%, which is the last time. The percentage of the list has increased.
