Once again, China dominated a new list of the world's fastest supercomputers, not only taking the top two seats, but also pulling ahead of the US in the sheer number of systems being used.
中国再次在新一期全球最快超级计算机榜单上占据优势,不仅夺得榜单前两名,还在被使用系统的绝对数量上超越了美国。
According to a biannual ranking of the world's 500 fastest supercomputers, called the Top500, China's Sunway TaihuLight maintains the lead as the No 1 system for the fourth time, with a performance of 93.01 petaflops.
全球最快超算500强榜单Top500每年发布两次,根据日前发布的榜单,中国的“神威·太湖之光”以每秒93.01千万亿次的浮点运算速度第四次蝉联冠军。
China's Tianhe-2, or Milky Way-2, is still the No 2 system at 33.86 petaflops.
中国的“天河二号”以每秒33.86千万亿次的浮点运算速度蝉联亚军。
The No 3 is Switzerland's Piz Daint, which is also the most powerful supercomputer in Europe. Anew system in Japan, called Gyoukou, is the No 4, pushing Titan, the top US system, to the No 5.
欧洲最强超算、瑞士的“代恩特峰”位居第三。日本新系统“晓光”超越美国最强系统“泰坦”位居第四,“泰坦”排名第五。
The 50th edition of Top500 ranking also shows that China has overtaken the US in the totalnumber of ranked systems by a margin of 202 to 144.
第50期Top500还显示,中国的上榜超算总数超过了美国,中国为202台,美国为144台。
China has also overtaken the US in aggregate performance as well. The Asian country nowclaims 35.3% of the TOP500 flops, with the US at second place with 29.8%.
