Speed of the fastest in the world! Chinese supercomputer "power light ? Taihu" certified by the Guinness book-Super a, super computer, the Guinness Book of records-IT information

On July 15, in June this year, the formal announcement of the ultra is the world's top 500 ranked list of first half of the year 2016. Developed by parallel computer engineering technology research center of China's "power ? Bank of light" to hyper-second speed won the first of three times. Even more exciting is that the system realized the localization of all the core components of the whole of China, including the processor.

According to the keepers, "power light ? Taihu" recently won the Guinness Book of world records certified as the world's "speed of the fastest computers". It is understood that the "power light ? Taihu" developed by the National Engineering Research Center for parallel computers, is the world's first supercomputer peak speeds of more than 1 billion times, the peak speed of 1.254 billion times per second, sustained computing speed of 930 million times per second, performance per watt for each tile 6.051 billion times.

"Power light ? Taihu" cabinet system consists of 40 operation and 8 network composition of the Cabinet. Each operation slightly larger cabinets than home double door fridge, opened the cupboard door and 4 Super node distribution made up of 32 operations plug-in. Each plug-in Board consists of 4 operational node, a node boards and 2 blocks "Wayne Shen 26010" high performance processor. A cabinet with 1024 processors, the whole "power light ? Taihu" total 40960 processor.

"Very happy for this exciting records issued the certificate. This record represents China's historical breakthrough in the supercomputer field, let the world know China has made great contribution to scientific and technological progress of mankind, and each one supercomputer, behind the efforts of researchers, who are holders of the title of the record! We hope that the future will bring more advanced technology from China-related records to the world. "Rowan said.

Yang guangwen, speed race is a Super Showdown is the most direct. "Power light ? Taihu" success marks China supercomputer made significant breakthroughs, and how "good" advantages into "good" advantage, will be the national Supercomputer Center in Wuxi continued to work toward.

运算速度世界最快！中国超级计算机“神威·太湖之光”获吉尼斯认证 - 超算,超级计算机,吉尼斯纪录 - IT资讯

7月15日消息，今年6月份，《全球超算500强》正式公布了2016年上半年排行名单。由中国并行计算机工程技术研究中心研制的“神威·太湖之光”以超第二名近三倍的运算速度夺得第一。更令人振奋的是，该套系统实现了包括处理器在内的所有核心部件全中国国产化。

据中新网报道，“神威·太湖之光”近日获得了吉尼斯世界纪录认证，成为世界上“运算速度最快的计算机”。据了解，“神威·太湖之光”由国家并行计算机工程技术研究中心研制，是世界上首台峰值计算速度超过十亿亿次的超级计算机，其峰值计算速度达每秒12.54亿亿次，持续计算速度每秒9.3亿亿次，性能功耗比为每瓦60.51亿次。

“神威·太湖之光”系统由40个运算机柜和8个网络机柜组成。每个运算机柜比家用的双门冰箱略大，打开柜门，4块由32块运算插件组成的超节点分布其中。每个插件由4个运算节点板组成，一个运算节点板又含2块“申威26010”高性能处理器。一台机柜就有1024块处理器，整台“神威·太湖之光”共有40960块处理器。

“非常高兴为这项振奋人心的纪录颁发证书。这一纪录代表着中国在超级计算机领域的历史性突破，让世界了解到中国为人类科技进步作出的巨大贡献，而每一位在超级计算机背后不懈努力的科研人员，他们都是这项纪录称号的保持者！我们希望未来能够将更多来自中国的高精尖科技相关的纪录介绍给全世界。”罗文说。

杨广文表示，速度之争是超算领域最为直接的对决。“神威·太湖之光”的成功，标志着中国超级计算机研制取得重要突破，而如何将“制好”优势转化为“用好”优势，将是国家超级计算机无锡中心继续努力的方向。
