According to reports from the Russian Satellite Network, China once again dominated the rankings of global supercomputer performance, not only taking the top two, but also far more than the United States on the list. Experts interviewed by Russia’s satellite news agency believe that China’s spending heavily to develop computing technology is not only to maintain its leading position in the global market, but also because the Chinese domestic market’s demand for the “super-brain†is also quite high.

The world’s super-computing Top500’s latest list was released on Monday. There are 202 supercomputers on the list and a record high in China, and the number of supercomputers in the United States dropped to 144. In the previous ranking, the United States "Titans" lost to the Swiss "Dante Peak" and ranked fourth. This ranking is behind Japan's "Xiaoguang" and ranked fifth. Therefore, the United States has fallen in the top three consecutive times.
China’s super-computing “God’s Wisdom of Taihu Lake†and “Tianhe II†have been ranked in the top four consecutive times. “The Light of the Taihu Lake is used for climate modeling and other scientific research. The speed of operation is 9.301 trillion times per second. At present, "Tianhe 2" has deployed more than 700 application software and tool software. The total number of users has exceeded 2,000. It is one of the world's largest users and the highest utilization rate of supercomputing systems. At the same time, it supports more than 800 national-level topics. , supporting more than 80 projects in Guangdong/Guangzhou. In 2016, the total amount of service-time service contracts exceeded 70 million, and the total number of contracts during the first five months of 2017 increased by 60% from the same period of last year.
In an interview with Satellite News, an expert in the field of mathematical modeling and computer modeling of socio-economic phenomena, and the deputy director of the Institute of Central Economic Mathematics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, said: “China has invested a lot in this field. These supercomputers are mainly used in climate prediction, cryptography, fluid mechanics, DNA research, and other fields. China's fastest supercomputer has used its own R&D processor."
At present, the Institute of Central Economic Mathematics of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the China National Supercomputing Center in Guangzhou are actively cooperating on the development of large-scale software systems, and they can be used to evaluate the possible consequences of implementing large-scale projects, such as the “Silk Road Economic Belt†initiative. Bakhidzin said that the scope of the assessment involves a wide range of areas such as society, economy and ecology.
Bakhtydzin pointed out: "This idea is unique in itself. First, it is quite a new tool, so that we can consider establishing a simulation system that is closest to reality. Second, we use the most advanced hardware. This is for China. People are very important, because they have placed a bet on this aspect.†He said that the Chinese side suggests using Tianhe-2 when it needs computing, and also provided a user name and password.
According to experts from the Tianhe 2 Research Center, Tianhe-2 will use the new Matrix2000 accelerator at the end of this year to replace the original Intel accelerator. Tianhe-2 will therefore be completed as a domestic supercomputer, with a maximum operating speed of 1 billion per second. Billion times.
As a leader in the production of other electronic components (computer hardware), it has tried to ban the export of Intel's supercomputer chips to China. At the same time, China is increasingly opposed to the use of US software and related standards and is committed to developing its own products.
