Top 50 Supercomputers Rating Published

TOP 50 SUPERCOMPUTERS RATING PUBLISHED

MOSCOW, May 17 (RIA Novosti) – The Computing Research Center at the
Moscow-based Lomonosov State University and the Interdepartmental
Supercomputing Center at the Russian Academy of Sciences announce
issue of the second edition of the Top 50 rating of supercomputers in
countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States. The basic trend
in the list dynamics over the past three months is a sizeable increase
in the share of commercially used supercomputers, the political daily
Nezavisimaya Gazeta writes.

The Computing Research Center deputy director Vladimir Voyevodin says
that in the updated list of supercomputers are now leading banks,
factories, as well as a novel entry — the oil-producing sector. The
list is now much closer to the world figures, where about 30 percent
of supercomputers are doing work for different industries.

Russia’s most powerful computer is located in the Interdepartmental
Supercomputing Center and is made up of 276 units (2xPowerPC 970
2.2 GHz 4 GB RAM). The most powerful computer for commercial service
is held by the Savings Bank (Sberbank) and is based on HP SuperDome
PA-RISC 750 MHz.

The most efficient cluster in the CIS is found in the Institute
of Information Science and Automatics Problems of the National
Academy of Sciences of Armenia in Yerevan. It is made up of 64 units
(2xXeon 3 GHz 1 GB RAM). For the full version of the rating go to:
