Tianhe-2 is the new king of supercomputers
The Tianhe-2 supercomputer, developed by the National University of Defense Technology in China, has been recognized as the world’s most powerful in the Top500 ranking updated on June 2013. By the end of the year it’s expected to be installed at the National Supercomputer Center in Guangzho, China. With its 33,862.7 TFlop/s, it nearly doubled the computing power of Titan, the former king of supercomputers. Its computing power peak can in theory reach 54,902.4 TFlop/s.
