The first of these updates always coincides with the International Supercomputing Conference in June, and the second is presented at the ACM/IEEE Supercomputing Conference in November. Oak Ridge scientists enlist supercomputer in search for existing drug to stop COVID-19. This quick, digital, testing has worked previously, Smith said, and cited success in their efforts in the past in finding treatment for diabetes and osteoporosis, for example. Local TV outlets have incorrectly reported University of … The University’s Information Technology Center is one of Japan’s major research and educational institutions for building, applying and utilizing large computer systems. Last week, supercomputer security systems in many institutions of higher education in Europe recorded cyber attacks attacks. The TOP500 project ranks and details the 500 most powerful non-distributed computer systems in the world. Frontera, the only new supercomputer in the top 10, attained its number five ranking by delivering 23.5 petaflops on HPL. Since June 2019 only Petaflop systems have been able to make the list. Providing access to more than 2,000 researchers, the SGI supercomputer will be used for research in engineering, earth sciences, space physics and material science. The companies hope this supercomputer will be … A university announcement said that when Stampede2 is fully completed this summer, it will be able to perform 18 quadrillion mathematical operations per second, making it one of the most powerful supercomputers in the world.

A Clemson University team found that universities with locally available supercomputers were more efficient in producing research in critical fields than universities that lacked supercomputers. With artificial intelligence capabilities and a peak performance rate of more than 6 petaFLOPS, Indiana University’s latest supercomputer solidifies its standing as a high-performance computing powerhouse. Successful A.I. TACC is also home to Stampede2, the second fastest supercomputer at any American university. The schools run some of the world’s most advanced supercomputers. The performance of a supercomputer is commonly measured in floating-point operations per second instead of million instructions per second (MIPS). Local TV outlets have incorrectly reported University of … Since 2017, there are supercomputers which can perform over a hundred quadrillion FLOPS (100 petaFLOPS, or PFLOPS). New supercomputers planned at three UK universities HPE, SUSE and ARM will build high-performance computing machines in a 'next step' for AI research

The world’s most powerful supercomputers are being used by UCL researchers for urgent investigations into the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the associated COVID-19 disease with the aim of accelerating the development of treatments, including antiviral drugs and vaccines.
