TOP500 Organization International released the latest issue of the World Supercomputer performance list today, China once again climb to the top, taking twelve.
List shows, China has independently developed the "divinity Taihu Light" super computer peak performance of 12.5 quadrillion times per second, the speed to become the world's first ultra 1 billion billion times supercomputer.
It is understood that the maximum speed of floating point operations "divinity Taihu light" design and stable operation of the 930 million billion times per second, than the "Tianhe-2" twice as fast, efficiency is increased by 3 times, and the power consumption from 17808KW reduced to 15371KW.
In addition to the powerful hardware configuration, divinity supercomputer system is also equipped with more than a decade after the development of the domestic divinity Koch. Now, the Chinese Academy of Engineering academician Chen Ning left brought us the details of this operating system.
She said that divinity Koch main advantage of the system of independent and high controllability, strong safety performance. Through a comprehensive analysis of the Linux kernel, specifically to strengthen the security and special transformation , combined with divinity processor features instruction and self-made processor the new security features, enhance the security of hardware and software to a great extent .
For purposes of divinity Koch, left Chen Ning said: " divinity Koch operating system is mainly used in high-performance computing and security in both areas. Product encompasses a variety of cluster supercomputers and computer systems; desktop, server-class general-purpose operating systems, and network custom operating system security, host security, data security, security management, network security class. "
Thus, we speculate that the future system should divinity Koch will release personal desktop version, it is a potential for development.
