SEOUL — An exascale pc created by South Korea’s largest internet portal operator Naver was ranked twenty second within the high 500 international supercomputer listing, information launched at a worldwide supercomputing convention in Colorado confirmed. The net large’s product, saved at an information middle in South Korea’s deliberate metropolis designated as a testbed for good metropolis options, had the best computing efficiency amongst home supercomputers.
Excessive-performance computing (HPC) is used to deal with extraordinarily advanced computational challenges within the science and engineering fields. It’s primarily performed through the use of a supercomputer which performs a vital function within the computational science subject. The efficiency of a supercomputer is generally measured in floating-point operations per second (FLOPS). A 1 petaFLOPS (PFLOPS) system can carry out one quadrillion FLOPS. The computational capability of Naver’s supercomputer reaches as much as 32.97 PFLOPS.
Naver Cloud, a cloud computing service wing of Naver, mentioned in an announcement that its supercomputer put in at an information middle named “Gak Sejong” debuted at No. 22 throughout a worldwide computing convention “SC23.” A United States-based Oak Ridge Nationwide Laboratory took first place with its exscale gadget “Frontier.” Amongst 500 supercomputer merchandise, 161 of them have been developed within the U.S. and 143 within the European Union (EU) area. Samsung Electronics’ “SSC-21” was ranked twenty eighth.
Supercomputers are essential within the subject of computational science and are used for a variety of computationally intensive duties in numerous fields. Within the supercomputer sector, South Korea nonetheless falls far behind the U.S., China, and Japan. In 2020, South Korea unveiled a three-year state undertaking to develop unbiased applied sciences for a HPC system beginning with the event of applied sciences for designing software program and {hardware} for a central processing unit.
