Fujitsu

Tokyo, April 2,2009 — Fujitsu Limited announced that it has completed a new supercomputer system for the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). The new system began operations on April 1, 2009.

Measuring the performance of the new system by running the LINPACK(1) benchmarking tool shows performance of 110.6 teraflops(2) and computing efficiency(3) of 91.19%. These results would place the supercomputer at the top of the November 2008 world’s TOP500 list of supercomputers in terms of computing efficiency. In terms of performance, it would rank first in Japan and 17th in the world.

It’s always great to see how the technologies are being used, what can be achieved and how this adds value to the end user/business community, an interesting read, and well done to Fujitsu for their benchmark achievements.
