It's getting harder to tell whose clusters are the biggest — and even harder to tell whose are the most powerful.
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 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 ...
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) helps build the world's fastest and most energy-efficient supercomputer, Frontier, which showcases the company's leadership in high performance computing (HPC).
Aurora is an exascale supercomputer that was sponsored by the United States Department of Energy (DOE) and designed by Intel and Cray for the Argonne National Laboratory. [2] It was briefly the second fastest supercomputer in the world from November 2023 to June 2024. The cost was estimated in 2019 to be US$500 million. [3]
Japan made major strides in the field in the 1980s and 1990s, with China becoming increasingly active in the field. As of November 2024, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's El Capitan is the world's fastest supercomputer. [11] The US has five of the top 10; Japan, Finland, Switzerland, Italy and Spain have one each. [12]
