Although the Americans and Chinese have topped the list of the world's top supercomputers for some time, the position has reached the Japanese since yesterday.
The world's best supercomputer, called the Fugaku, has surpassed the American system supercomputer and won the title of the world's fastest supercomputer.
The Fugaku supercomputer has been installed at the RIKEN Center in Kobe, Japan, and has been operational in recent days. The Fugako processing speed is 415.5 petaflops, which is 2.8 times faster than the Simit supercomputer with a processing speed of 148.8 petaflops.
Fugaku's designers say that the speed of this supercomputer reaches 1000 petaflops at best, which is an unprecedented record in history. This supercomputer has 158976 processors. Each of these processors, called the A64FX, produced by Fujitsu, has 48 cores. The architecture of these processors is based on the design of IRM.
Currently, after the Fugaku supercomputer of Japan and the US Summit, which have the first and second ranks, the supercomputer of Sierra in the United States has gained the third rank with a speed of 94.6 petaflops. Two Chinese supercomputers, Sunway TaihuLight and Tianhe-2A, ranked fourth and fifth with 93 and 61.4 petaflops, respectively.
