10 fastest supercomputers in the world

10 fastest supercomputers in the world, Techkonology - Twice-yearly TOP500 list of fastest supercomputers issued. At 18 November (18/11) on the SC13 Conference, Denver, Colo, TOP500 release list is the last for this year, namely the 42nd Edition. This is the tenth fastest supercomputers according to the list.

Number 1: Tianhe-2, was developed by the National University of Defense Technology to China, with the performance 33,86 petaflop/s (Pflop/s or 1,000 trillion calculations per second) on the Linpack benchmark. The fastest supercomputers in the world use 3.1 million processor cores and 2.7 million accelerator core.

Number 2: Cray, was installed at Oak XK7 Rige National Laboratory of U.S. Department of energy, with performance 17,59 Pflop/s this is a Supercomputer. the most efficient system in the use of energy namely 2,143 gigaflop/W, or total energy consuming 8.21 MW. This supercomputer using half a million processor cores and a quarter million Accelerator NVIDIA.

Number 3: Sequoia, an IBM BlueGene/Q system, installed at Lawrence Livermor National Laboratory, U.S. Department of energy performance with 17.17 Pflop/s Supercomputer uses 1,57 million processor cores.
