Cray supercomputer called European initiative

Cray supercomputer called European initiative


In the next ten years the company plans to build a machine with a capacity of one Exaflop nikon en-el3 battery. Cray is cooperating with the University of Edinburgh and the Swiss National Supercomputing Center. Other partnerships are planned.


Cray has launched as part of its Executive Forum Europe, taking place currently in Frankfurt, a European supercomputer initiative. Except Cray who belong to the University of Edinburgh, the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS) and Allinea Software nikon en-el3e battery.


The aim of the association is to build within the next ten years, a machine that can perform a trillion calculations per second. The challenge in the construction of such a supercomputer is Cray CEO Peter Ungaro, according to, among other things, new infrastructures for cooling and energy supply as well as new programming models to develop apple powerbook g4 15 aluminum battery.


According to Ulla Thiel, vice president of Cray Europe, in the future more partnerships with businesses, government agencies and universities planned to allow the construction of a Exaflop computer. Such a computer would exceed the performance of current supercomputers by far.


With his system, "Jaguar" Cray had in November, IBM’s "Road Runner" as the world’s most powerful supercomputer replaced. Jaguar has a performance of 1.75 petaflops, which 1.75 trillion floating point operations per second apple powerbook g4 17 battery.


Joined Intel in November along with three French research institutions to identify the challenges for supercomputing in today’s IT and possible solutions. The company that they "Exascale Computing Research Center" has to build the target computer systems delivering 100 times more power than today’s supercomputers nikon en-el4 battery.
