Lenovo has revealed what it says is a part ofthe next-generation of supercomputers. <\/p>\n
At the International Supercomputing Conference in Frankfurt, the company confirmed it has completed the delivery and implementation of the worlds largest, Intel-based supercomputer at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC). <\/p>\n
Called MareNostrum 4, the 11.1 petaFLOP supercomputer will be housed in the worlds \"most beautiful data center\" at the Chapel Torre Girona at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia in Barcelona. There it will be used to power a number of scientific investigation processes, including human genome research, bioinformatics and biomechanics to weather forecasting and atmospheric composition. <\/p>\n
The system is powered by more than 3,400 nodes of Lenovos next-generation servers, featuring Intel Xeon scalable processors, interconnected with more than 60 kilometers of high-speed, Intel Omni-Path Technology 100 Gb\/s network cabling. <\/p>\n
The new system has already struck a claim to be one of the biggest in the world, currently listed at number 13 on theTOP500list, released today, and Lenovo says it will also continue to grow over time. <\/p>\n
\"From the lab to the factory, to the on-site implementation teams, the delivery of a system of this size and complexity demands a superior level of integration and skill,\" says Madhu Matta, VP & GM of High Performance Computing and Artificial Intelligence at Lenovo. \"It requires a focus on a holistic customer experience that very few companies are capable of delivering.\" <\/p>\n
