Chinese supercomputer Sunway-TaihuLight was recognized at the conference in Germany the fastest in the world.
The device is the only computer that shows the incredible speed that is equal to 100 petaflops, and its capacity equals 125 436 petaflops per second.
At peak load, the computer can perform a quadrillion calculations per second.
The area of the Central processor Sunway-TaihuLight is 25 square centimeters. There are 40 960 processors, and he himself occupies the premises of 1 000 square meters.
To accomplish 6 billion calculations Sunway-TaihuLight consumes only one watt of electricity. It is much more energy-efficient its predecessor Tianhe-2, which was considered the most powerful computer in the last 6 years.
