Super Computer more powerful than millions of Computers

+




Beijing, China will complete the manufacturing of the most powerful super computer, ‘Tianhe 3’ this year, which will be able to carry out the counting of one quintillion (1018) accounts. According to this development, this will be the first super computer of the world, which will get the power of ‘Exascale’ (1000 Peta FLOPS). In the easy words, you can understand if the powers of 33 crore computers having 3 gigahertz processor speed is combined that this one super computer will be more powerful. The work is being carried out on this project in the ‘National Super Computer Center’ of China, which has global acclaim in manufacturing the fastest super computers.

The two fastest super computers means ‘Sunway TahiuLight’ and Tianhe 2’ have been manufacture4d in this laboratory, in which the first (Sunway TahiuLight) can work on maximum 125 Peta FLOPS while Tianhe 2 has the maximum  speed of almost 55 Peta FLOPS.

In the list of most powerful super computers of the world, the third computer is American ‘Titans’, which is prepared by Coray Incorporated and it has the maximum speed of 27 Peta FLOPS which means very less if compared with the Chinese super computers. It is very interesting, that in the list of the of most powerful super computers, the 10th number is held with the super computer of Saudi Arabia, which is ‘Shaheen II’ and it is also prepared by Coray Incorporated.

According to the press release of National Super Computer Center, for the completion of ‘Tianhe 3’, the target was set for 2018 but the work is being carried out with extraordinary speed and it is hoped that this super computer will be completed before the end of 2017. America does not want to lag behind in the race of super computers and the US Department of Energy is carrying out work on the super computer under ‘Exascale Computing Project’, which will get the target of 1000 Peta FLOPS (1 Exa FLOPS) and the completion year is fixed as 2023.

It is to be cleared that super computers do not belong to the advancement in technology but the detailed research work is being carried out on the big and most complicated scientific models which is not possible through other types of the computers.
