I had the pleasure to be little bit involved in the creation of the fastest supercomputer in Asia, and the second fastest supercomputer in the world – the Dawning “Nebulae” Petaflop Supercomputer at SIAT. If we look on the peak flops capacity of the system – nearly 3 Petaflops, it is the largest supercomputer in [...]

In the introduction for the “Paving the road to Exascale” series of posts (part 1), one of the items I mentioned was the “many many cores, CPU or GPUs”. The basic performance of a given system is being measured by flops. Each CPU/GPU is capable for X amount of flops (which can be calculated as [...]
