China’s Tianhe-1 has a puting speed of 2,507 trillion（万亿）calculations a second, making it the fastest puter in the world. It is also 40 percent faster than the world’s second fastest superputer, Cray XT5 Jaguar, in the US, kept at a national laboratory in Tennessee, according to the New York Times. Jack Dongarra, a University of Tennessee puter scientist, told NYT that the Chinese superputer is faster than the existing Number One machine.
Building the fastest superputer has bee a source of national pride, as these machines are valued for their ability to solve problems in areas like defense, energy and science. These problems are related to national interests. Superputing technology is also found in business. Oil and gas panies use superputers to find oil and gas.
Obviously, research centers with large superputers attract top scientific talents. This adds extra importance to the machines—they’re more than just huge puters.
China’s new superputer will be used to speed up greatly scientific calculations, such as hurricane and tsunami modeling, cancer research, car design and even studying stars.
In 2008, two US scientists put together a step-by-step guide on how to build a superputer using PlayStation 3 video-game consoles（控制台）. Modern superputers are built by bining thousands of small puter servers（服务器）and using software to turn them into one large puter. Really, any organization with enough material and technology can create a fast machine.
The Chinese system follows that model by linking thousands upon thousands of puter servers. But the secret behind the system—and the technological achievement—is China’s own networking technology. “That technology was built by them,” Dongarra said. “They are taking superputing very seriously and using a lot of time and money.”
“China is still a developing country,” said Sha Chaoqun, manager at Dawning Company which is the leading superputer maker in China. “Maybe one day, China’s total puting power can be greater than that of the US, but there is still a long way to go before we get there.”
