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 ...
HPE Frontier at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility is the world's first exascale supercomputer. Exascale computing refers to computing systems capable of calculating at least 10 18 IEEE 754 Double Precision (64-bit) operations (multiplications and/or additions) per second (exa FLOPS)"; [1] it is a measure of supercomputer performance.
Approaches to supercomputer architecture have taken dramatic turns since the earliest systems were introduced in the 1960s. Early supercomputer architectures pioneered by Seymour Cray relied on compact innovative designs and local parallelism to achieve superior computational peak performance. [ 1 ]
Quizlet made its first acquisition in March 2021, with the purchase of Slader, which offered detailed explanations of textbook concepts and practice problems, and eventually incorporated it into its paid platform, Quizlet Plus. [23] [24] [25] In November 2022, Quizlet announced a new CEO, Lex Bayer, the former CEO of Starship Technologies. [26]
A Cray-1 supercomputer preserved at the Deutsches Museum. The history of supercomputing goes back to the 1960s when a series of computers at Control Data Corporation (CDC) were designed by Seymour Cray to use innovative designs and parallelism to achieve superior computational peak performance. [1]
1×10 9: ILLIAC IV 1972 supercomputer does first computational fluid dynamics problems; 1.4×10 9: Intel Pentium III microprocessor, 1999; 1.6×10 9: PowerVR MBX Lite 3D GPU on iPhone 1, 2007; 8×10 9: PowerVR SGX535 GPU on iPad 1, 2010; 136×10 9: PowerVR GXA6450 GPU on iPhone 6 and iPhone SE, 2014
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.
Aquasar is a supercomputer (a high-performance computer) prototype created by IBM Labs in collaboration with ETH Zurich in Zürich, Switzerland and ETH Lausanne in Lausanne, Switzerland. [1] While most supercomputers use air as their coolant of choice, the Aquasar uses hot water to achieve its great computing efficiency.
