This is an accepted version of this page This is the latest accepted revision, reviewed on 1 March 2025. Type of extremely powerful computer For other uses, see Supercomputer (disambiguation). The Blue Gene/P supercomputer "Intrepid" at Argonne National Laboratory (pictured 2007) runs 164,000 processor cores using normal data center air conditioning, grouped in 40 racks/cabinets connected by a ...
The Cray-3 was a vector supercomputer, Seymour Cray's designated successor to the Cray-2. The system was one of the first major applications of gallium arsenide (GaAs) semiconductors in computing, using hundreds of custom built ICs packed into a 1 cubic foot (0.028 m 3 ) CPU .
[2] [3] Throughout the decades, the management of heat density has remained a key issue for most centralized supercomputers. [4] [5] [6] The large amount of heat generated by a system may also have other effects, such as reducing the lifetime of other system components. [7]
At first, the concept of building another supercomputer seemed impossible, but after Cray Research's Chief Technology Officer travelled to Wall Street and found a lineup of investors willing to back Cray, all that was needed was a design. For four years Cray Research designed its first computer. [3] In 1975 the 80 MHz Cray-1 was announced.
The Blue Gene/P supercomputer at Argonne National Lab. The IBM Blue Gene supercomputer uses the CNK operating system on the compute nodes, but uses a modified Linux-based kernel called I/O Node Kernel on the I/O nodes. [3] [19] CNK is a lightweight kernel that runs on each node and supports a single application running for a single user on that ...
Tesla Dojo is a supercomputer designed and built by Tesla for computer vision video processing and recognition. [1] It is used for training Tesla's machine learning models to improve its Full Self-Driving (FSD) advanced driver-assistance system.
AWS unveiled a new line of its own AI chips and plans for a supercomputer at its Re: Invent conference, signalling a shift away from Nvidia.
