This supercomputer exemplifies the intersection of advanced computing and critical safety measures. Sunway TaihuLight. China's top contender in the race for the fastest supercomputer is the Sunway TaihuLight. Developed by the National Research Center of Parallel Computer Engineering and Technology, this remarkable system is located in Wuxi

A look back to supercomputing at the turn of the century. When I first attended the Supercomputing SC conferences back in the early 2000s as an IBMer working in High Performance Computing HPC, it was obvious this conference was intended for serious computer science researchers and industries singularly focused on pushing the boundaries of computing.
