ARM-based Fugaku Supercomputer on Summit of New Top500 – Surpasses Exaflops on AI Benchmark
by Doug Black from High-Performance Computing News Analysis | insideHPC on (#54WEW)
The new no. 1 system on the updated ranking of the TOP500 list of the world's most powerful supercomputers, released this morning, is Fugaku, a machine built at the Riken Center for Computational Science in Kobe, Japan. The new top system turned in a High Performance LINPACK (HPL) result of 415.5 petaflops (nearly half an exascale), outperforming Summit, the former no. 1 system housed at the U.S. Dept. of Energy's Oak Ridge National Lab, by a factor of 2.8x. Fugaku, powered by Fujitsu's 48-core A64FX SoC, is the first ARM-based system to take the TOP500 top spot.
