A Chinese supercomputer, is classified as the second fastest supercomputer in the world. Has exceeded the European and Japanese supercomputers and shows China's commitment to science and technology.
Increasing clouds, Shenhe based in China reached a constant speed of 1.27 petaflop. Petaflop is the equivalent of one trillion mathematical calculations per second, and calculations.
The Chinese machine is actually the world's fastest statistically significant compared to the theoretical peak performance, but not to reach for the placement than the theoretical maximum yield less than the speed of the actual calculation.
However, fasting Jaguar Cray supercomputer in the world. This supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee. This supercomputer is mainly used for nuclear weapons simulation. Last two annual list of the world's fastest supercomputer, the Cray Jaguar measured at a rate of 1.75 petaflop.
The list of last year was the fifth fastest supercomputer in the world after China. This supercomputer is now the seventh.
The U.S. remained the country with the largest number of fast supercomputer supercomputers in the world top 500 rankings. Moreover, the American supercomputer maintained production, its dominant position.
