Tus haib tshaj processor. "Top" supercomputers

Ob peb xyoo dhau los, tsis muaj ntawm cov processor yuav piv tsis tau nrog lub fact tias cov nqi nyob rau hauv qhov nruab nrab computer. Tam sim no qhov teeb meem no tau hloov radically. Tsev PC tshuab rau ib ntev lub sij hawm tsis muaj ib tug yog ras, txawm tias lawv yog pua pua ntawm lub sij hawm ntau haib tshaj lub computer 70. Lub tswv yim ntawm peb cov contemporaries ntaus ib tug txawv kiag li lub tsheb - ib tug supercomputer. Nws yog tsim nyog lub feem ntau haib processor nyob rau hauv nws lub hauv paus.

Raws li ib tug txoj cai, tsis muaj ib tug neeg twg muaj cov cav tov, thiab tag nrho cov xeev. Tag nrho supercomputers nyob rau hauv lub ntiaj teb no yog suav thiab npaum li cas mus rau hauv kev saib xyuas, vim hais tias lawv yog indispensable tsis tsuas yog rau cov kev kawm. Number of supercomputers txiav txim rau prestige ntawm lub teb chaws: ntau tshaj lawv, tus muaj zog lub xeev twg muaj lawv. Tus thawj daim ntawv teev cov supercomputers nyob rau hauv 1993 thiab twb muaj npe lub "Top 500". Vim nws yog tshiab ob zaug ib xyoos. Qhov no qeb duas yog tso ua ke tsis yog rau tsoom fwv ambitions. "Generating" kev sib tw cua, nws nkoos rau qhov kev kawm ntawm siab technology. Lub teb chaws nyob rau hauv uas lub feem ntau haib CPU nyob rau hauv lub ntiaj teb no, ranked nyob rau hauv lub "top daim ntawv teev" thawj qhov chaw.

Ntau ntev los no, tus thawj coj ntawm daim ntawv teev yog cov States, tab sis txij li lub xeem hloov tshiab Americans thawb Nyiv thiab Tuam Tshoj. America tseem yog ib tug thawj coj xwb nyob rau hauv lub xov tooj ntawm supercomputers, tab sis tus tseem haib ntawm lawv yog "tswm" nyob rau hauv cov teb chaws Asia. Yog li ntawd, leej twg yog muaj los ntawm cov feem ntau haib processor? Niaj hnub no, muaj ob supercomputers nrog xws li processors. Ib tug tsim ib tug Japanese lub tuam txhab Fujitsu. Lub brainchild ntawm lub tuam txhab hu ua K-computer. Lub prefix "K" stands "kaum quadrillion", txawm li cas los, lub Japanese muab nws lwm lub ntsiab lus. "K" nyob rau hauv lawv cov kev nkag siab txhais tau tias "lub ntsiab computer".

"Top 500" Japanese tsheb mus rau ob lub xyoos, txawm li cas los, lub caij ntuj sov ntawm 2011 nws yog tseem tsis tau li. Ces K-computer muaj 672 modules. Tag nrho cov vosmiyadernyh processors muab xam hwj chim supercomputer tshaj 68 txhiab. Txhua CPU SPARC64 hu ua thiab yog tsim los ntawm Fujitsu engineers. Nyob rau hauv ib ob, tus dab twb ua 8,16 quadrillion hauj lwm. Yuav kom ua tau ib lub feem ntau haib processor, Japanese zaum twb tsis txaus siab. Lawv nce tus naj npawb ntawm nws CPU supercomputer mus 88128. Qhov no naj npawb ntawm cov ua hauj lwm ntau zog rau 11,28 quadrillion. Nws yog zoo tshaj plaws uas nrog xws li ib tug ua tau zoo K-computer kov me ntsis hwj chim, thiab nws zoo nkaus li heev compact. Yog vim li cas rau cov uas - cov kua system los ntawm txoj kev uas lub Cheebtsam yog txias machine. Ntawm lwm yam uas supercomputer system Linux, thiab nws yog npaj rau lub ntiaj teb no kev suav.

Yuav ua li cas yog cov feem ntau haib processor los ua rival Japanese txuj ci tseem ceeb? Ntawm cov hoob kawm, tus Suav system Ttianhe-1A, uas K-computer ousted los ntawm thawj qhov chaw. US Jaguar supercomputer tau txais tsuas yog tus thib peb qhov chaw. Cov ciaj ciam ntawm cov cav tov kuj impressive, vim hais tias lawv yog ua los ntawm txhiab ntawm processors thiab graphics phaib, thiab lawv nco yog tsis ntsuas nyob rau hauv terabytes thiab petabytes nyob rau hauv. Zog ntawm Guj kuj lagged qab ntawm daim ntawv teev cov thawj coj yog muaj zog txaus. Tag nrho cov xov tooj ntawm cov supercomputers, nws nres nyob rau hauv xya kab - lawv yog cov nyob rau hauv Lavxias teb sab tsuas kaum ob, thiab lub hwj chim ntawm txhua yog considerably tsis tau zoo tus Japanese thiab Suav tsheb.

Nrhiav nyob rau hauv cov kev siv technology tshiab kev kho, nws nkawd hais tias lub feem ntau haib computer yog twb yees ua. Tab sis tsis muaj kev txwv rau zoo tag nrho. Tej zaum nyob rau hauv ib lub xyoo peb yuav tau ras los ntawm ib tug tshiab zem tshuab.
