Super Computer

A supercomputer is a computer with a very high level of performance compared to a general-purpose computer. Supercomputers use parallel processing across many processors to solve complex problems. They are used for tasks like weather forecasting, climate modeling, and simulating nuclear weapons. The most powerful supercomputer in the world can perform many quadrillions of calculations per second.

SUPER COMPUTER

WHAT IS SUPER COMPUTER?

 A supercomputer is a computer with a high


level of performance compared to a general-
purpose computer. The performance of a
supercomputer is commonly measured in
floating-point operations per second (FLOPS)
instead of million instructions per second (MIPS).
WHAT IS PARRALLEL PROCESSING?

a mode of computer operation in which


a process is split into parts that execute
simultaneously on different processors
attached to the same computer.

PARALLEL PROCESSING
CLUSTER

 you can make a computer by filling


a gaint box with processors ang
getting them to cooperate on
tackling a complex problem trough
massively parallel
processing.Alternatively,you could
just buy a load of off-the-shelf
PCs,put them in the same room and
interconnect them using a very fast
LOCAL AREA NETWORK (LAN) so
they work in a broadlt similay
way.that kind of a supercomputer
called cluster
GRID

 a grid is a supercomputer similar to a cluster(in


that its made up of separate computers),but the
computers are in different places ang
connected through the interrnet(or other
computer networks). This is an example of
distributed computing, which means that the
power of a computer is spread across multiple
locations instead of being located in one, single
place (that’s sometimes called centralized
computing.)
WHAT SOFTWARE DO
SUPERCOMPUTER RUN?

 The IBM Blue Gene


supercomputer uses the
CNK operating system
on the compute nodes,
but uses a modified
Linux-based kernel
called I/O Node Kernel
(INK) on the I/O nodes.
WHAT DO SUPER COMPUTER
ACTUALLY DO?

 Supercomputers play an important role in the field of


computational science, and are used for a wide range of
computationally intensive tasks in various fields, including quantum
mechanics, weather forecasting, climate research, oil and gas
exploration, molecular modeling (computing the structures and
properties of chemical compounds, biological macromolecules,
polymers, and crystals), and physical simulations (such as
simulations of the early moments of the universe, airplane and
spacecraft aerodynamics, the detonation of nuclear weapons,
and nuclear fusion). Throughout their history, they have been
essential in the field of cryptanalysis.[6]
HOW POWERFUL ARE
SUPERCOMPUTERS?

 The US Again Has the World's Most Powerful


Supercomputer. The IBM-built Summit
supercomputer is the world's smartest and most
powerful AI machine. Its racks are connected
by over 185 miles of fiber-optic cables.
