China's new supercomputing system, Sunway-TaihuLight, was the world's fastest computer at the International Supercomputing Conference in Germany on June 20, 2016. The massive supercomputer, built entirely using processors designed and made in China, dethroned the former champion, Tianhe-2, also a Chinese system but built based on Intel chips. TaihuLight is capable of performing 93 million billion calculations per second (petaflop/s). That's almost three times as fast as Tianhe-2. China achieved major breakthroughs in scientific and technological development in 2016. [Photo/Xinhua] |
