The world's supercomputer is now in the US

The United States has created the world's fastest supercomputer. This new computer name is Summit. It is capable of calculating 2 trillion accounts per second. Before the Summit, the world's fastest computer was Sunway Tyuhlett. The Chinese-made computer could calculate approximately 100,000 trillion per second.

That is, the Summit is nearly twice as strong than Sunway Tyuhlet. The BBC report said that the summit will be used in complex research work early on. Summit will be used especially in the study of space, cancer, and biology. Currently, this computer is the fastest computer in the United States Tennessee Walk Ridge National Laboratory.

It was built here with the help of IBM and Nvidia. Generally, supercomputers are quite big in size. Its conveying costs are much higher. Besides, thousands of processors are connected to complex tasks. Apart from this, the Summit has 4608 computer servers and 10 PETAbit memory. Regarding owning the world's fastest supercomputer, US Secretary of Energy Rick Perry said: "We are in a competition. Who wins this competition is quite important. He also said the United States has told the world about its capabilities. We have shown that we are returning to the competition very well.

In fact, the latest list of top supercomputers was published in 2017. The list shows that among the top 500 supercomputers, 202 are from China and 143 in the United States.
