Fastest Super computers and is used in processing problems involved in physics simulation, weather forecasting, research data and many more. The companies like Cray, IBM, HP are manufacturers of super computes and have good experience in building them. During June 2011, the world's fastest super computes were announced in International Supercomputing Conference in Hamburg, Germany. Here is the Top 5 fastest super computes in the word with pictures.
NUDT "Tianhe-1A" Super computers
This is the second fastest super computer and was in the number one position last year. This super computer is powered by 186,368 cores and is installed at National Supercomputing Center in Tianjin, China and was installed in the year 2010
Dawning "Nebulae" Super computers
This is other from China is located in National Supercomputing Center in Shenzhen (NSCS), China and is installed in year 2010. It has 1.271 petaflops of computing capacity. This has 120640 cores.
NEC/HP "TSUBAME 2.0" Super computers
This is again from Japan and is located in GSIC center, Tokya Institute of Technology, Japan and was installed in the year 2010. It has 2.39 petaflops of computing capacity and is 30 times faster than its predecessor Tsubane 1.0. This is one of the low cost super computers than the other super computers.This has 73278 cores.
Fujitsu "K Computer" Super computers
The top spot is for the Fujitsu's "K Computer" installed at RIKEN Advanced Institute for Computational Science, Japan. This runs on 548,352 cores (68,544 CPUs with eight cores each) and is more powerful than the combined capacity of next 4 in the list. This is the most powerful and fastest super computer as of today and has over taken the last years champion, which is second in this list.
Cray "Jaguar Super computers
This is located in the DOE/SC/Oak Ridge National Laboratory, United States and was installed in the year 2009. This is only one in the top list from United States. This has 1.75 petaflops performance speed and has the theoretical peak capacity of 2.3 petaflops and nearly a quarter of a million cores
