From the CDC 6600 to Seymour Cray and beyond, supercomputers dominated science, industrial, and military research for decades ...

The CDC 6600, introduced by the Control Data Corporation, usually gets the nod as the first supercomputer. Chiefly designed by Seymour Cray, the CDC 6600 boasted up to triple the throughput of the ...

El Capitan tops the 2024 TOP500 list as the world’s fastest supercomputer, driving breakthroughs in AI, nuclear research, and ...

Frontier is an HPE Cray EX system with more than 9,800 nodes, each equipped with a third-generation AMD EPYC™ CPU and four AMD Instinct™ MI250X GPUs. The OLCF is a DOE Office of Science user facility.

El Capitan displaces the US' Frontier, which has now fallen to second place.

This one to one packaging has been maintained between CPUs and accelerators across many generations of Cray supercomputers, and this is probably not an accident. In a sense, the MI300A is a six-way ...

A supercomputer built by Chinese military scientists has again come out on top in an international test of artificial intelligence computing efficiency. Tianhe, developed by the National ...

El Capitan was built by HPE and features over 11M cores by way of AMD's EPYC processors a MI300A AI accelerators.

This underlines HPE-Cray's dominance in the Top500 world of supercomputers, especially as seven of the top 10 come from HPE's Cray forge. Around one million CPU cores and ten million GPU cores are ...

When Cray Computing, a supercomputer manufacturer acquired by HP in 2019, announced that it would build El Capitan it expected the computer to reach a peak performance of 1.5 exaflops. Today, the 64th ...

Advertising Hewlett Packard Enterprise, which in 2019 purchased the supercomputer pioneer Cray, contributed a networking technology called SlingShot. The system’s special graphics processing ...
