In 1987, the Indian government had requested to purchase a Cray X-MP supercomputer; this request was denied by the United States government as the machine could have a dual use in weapons development. [7] After this problem, in the same year, the Government of India decided to promote an indigenous supercomputer development programme.
The High Performance Computing (HPC) facility in India has grown from 40 TeraFlops in 2008 to 1 PetaFlops in the year 2013–14. [4] But India still remained at a lower position in terms of HPC infrastructure rankings in the world. [4] Government of India approved 400 crore Rupees in 2017 to build a supercomputer with a computing capacity of 10 ...
High-performance computing (HPC) as a term arose after the term "supercomputing". [3] HPC is sometimes used as a synonym for supercomputing; but, in other contexts, "supercomputer" is used to refer to a more powerful subset of "high-performance computers", and the term "supercomputing" becomes a subset of "high-performance computing".
Share of processor families in TOP500 supercomputers by year [needs update]. As of June 2022, all supercomputers on TOP500 are 64-bit supercomputers, mostly based on CPUs with the x86-64 instruction set architecture, 384 of which are Intel EMT64-based and 101 of which are AMD AMD64-based, with the latter including the top eight supercomputers. 15 other supercomputers are all based on RISC ...
The project was given an initial run of three years and an initial funding of ₹ 30,00,00,000, the cost of a Cray supercomputer. [7] A prototype computer was benchmarked at the 1990 Zurich Super-computing Show. It demonstrated that India had the second most powerful, publicly demonstrated, supercomputer in the world after the United States. [7 ...
Microsoft has developed one of the most powerful supercomputers in the world to help develop human-like artificial intelligene. Microsoft debuts supercomputer for creating human-like artificial ...
The U.S. supercomputer Frontier was crowned the world’s speediest this year, but some computer scientists say China‘s Tianhe-3 may be as fast. WSJ unpacks the tech and design of the machines ...
HPC5 is a supercomputer built by Dell and installed by Eni, capable of 51.721 petaflops, and is ranked 9th in the Top500 as of November 2021. [1] [2] [3] [4] It is ...
