Associated with the title of the Fastest Supercomputer in the world or the world's fastest computer, in this post I'll share the latest name and specification of record holder of the world's fastest supercomputers. This computer name Tianhe-1A and You make an educated guess is perfect if You think it's related to China.
Tianhe-1A is a new supercomputer in China are not the same as cheap Chinese products which you can find on the market. The fastest computer was designed by University of Defense Technology of China. This is the latest record after a supercomputer in the world record-breaking performance in 2,507 petaflops. This entry was lowered because of systematic supercomputers by 7.168 Tesla ™ M2050 14.336 NVIDIA ® GPU and CPU. This entry also does not include the Cray XT5 Jaguar Supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Labs from the first stage of the world's fastest computers.
Tianhe-1A is designed as a system of large scale computations and scientific open access system for the University. This supercomputer 155 tons of weight and is powered by electric energy 4.04 megawatts. The cost to design and build a supercomputer that is $ 88.000.000 and that makes the computer is listed as one of the priciest in the world of computers.
To match the performance of the fastest supercomputers in the world, we will need more than 50,000 CPU and some floor space to accommodate all the racks and hardware. This is a very heavy challenge and certainly the financing of this project will be very large.
