 Japanese Supercomputer Beats U.S., China to Take World Speed Crown

击败中美，日本超级计算机夺得“全球运算速度最快”桂冠

 

(Bloomberg) -- A supercomputer developed by Fujitsu Ltd. and Japan’s Riken research institute was ranked the world’s fastest in an independent survey, beating out U.S. and Chinese rivals.

(彭博社)- 根据一项独立调查，富士通和日本理化研所开发的超级计算机击败美国和中国的竞争对手，摘得“全球运行速度最快”桂冠。

Built using technology from SoftBank Group Corp.’s Arm Ltd., the Fugaku cluster has more than 150,000 processors and roughly 2.8 times the performance of the second-fastest supercomputer, according to TOP500, a research organization that compiles the rankings twice a year. It marks the first time that a Japanese supercomputer has led the ranking since Fujitsu’s K computer took the crown in 2011, the company said. It also boosts Arm’s claims that it can compete with the likes of Intel Corp. in high-performance computing.

TOP500称，“富岳”使用软银集团旗下芯片设计商Arm Ltd.的技术建造，拥有超过15万个处理器，性能大约是第二快超级计算机的2.8倍。TOP500是一家研究机构，每年对该排名进行更新。富士通表示，这是自2011年该公司的超级计算机K摘得桂冠以来，日本超级计算机首次领跑该榜单。ARM曾表示其可以在高性能计算领域与英特尔等公司竞争，此次“富岳”夺冠也进一步印证了ARM的说法。

The new supercomputer is installed at the Riken Center for Computational Science in Kobe and will begin full operation in 2021. It will contribute to research in areas from drug discovery to weather forecasting and help shape policy decisions.

这台新超级计算机安装在神户的日本理化研究所计算科学中心，将于2021年开始全面运行。它将为药物发现、天气预报等领域的研究做出贡献，并协助政策决策。

Arm processors power most of the world’s smartphones and Apple Inc. just announced a transition to building its Mac computers around the technology.

全球大多数智能手机都使用ARM处理器，苹果公司刚刚宣布将逐步过渡到使用ARM处理器开发Mac电脑。

I've been in Japan since Dec. It is an ADVANCED country. The USA is going DOWNHILL fast.

自去年12月以来我一直待在日本。日本是一个先进的国家，而美国正在迅速衰落。

What happened to the Quantum Computer...the miracle machine?

量子计算机怎么样了，还有神奇机器呢?

I thought quantum were the fastest

我以为量子计算机的运算速度是最快的

This "worlds fastest super computer" thing is always beaten within a year by someone else.

“全球最快超级计算机”总是会在一年之内被超过。

 

Making sense.

The speed record will last 6 months max.

这个速度记录最多保持6个月。

i am a super computer learning all your behavior through an advanced algorithm. Hi i'm Karen.

你好,我是凯伦。我是一台超级计算机，通过高级算法学习你们人类所有的行为。

People who say "The U.S. is the best country in the world" are just ignorant.

Compared to other countries, the U.S. consistently ranks below many of them on almost every measure of global performance matrix.

那些说“美国是世界上最先进的国家”的人实在是太无知了。与其他国家相比，在几乎所有衡量指标上，美国的排名一直落后于许多国家。

Faster than what? How fast? This article is light on the facts.

比谁更快?有多快?这篇文章都没说清楚。

Japan has a few more technical achievements, that will bury China.

日本的一些技术成就足以埋没中国。

CONGRATS!

恭喜!

The journalist must have worked real hard to edit out the ACTUAL SPEED of the computer, in an article ABOUT computer SPEED!!

在一篇关于计算机速度的文章中，作者居然没把速度写出来!!

Next month China will retake the crown with their own super computers. China is also ahead in both AI and quantum computer tech.

下个月，中国的超级计算机重夺桂冠。中国在人工智能和量子计算机技术方面也处于领先地位。

It may be the fastest Commercial Computer in the World...but Our Government has "Other" computers that are light years ahead of this Japanese Computer.

也许是世界上运算速度最快的商用计算机……我们的政府有“其他”计算机，比日本的计算机领先好几光年。

That's a dangerous position to be in if Japan repeatedly beats the US in super computer as it may attract IT parts sanctions against Japanese IT companies as such assets is deemed strategic to national security. Noticed that China has wisely refrained from showing off their State of the Art super computers for fear of further antagonizing the Trump administration.

如果日本超级计算机屡次超过美国，这是很危险的，因为这可能导致日本IT公司受到制裁，这些资产对国家安全具有战略意义。中国就很明智，不炫耀他们最先进的超级计算机，以免进一步激怒特朗普政府。

Now Trump is to ban any chips sell to Japan.

现在特朗普将禁止向日本出售芯片。

I'm sure china has already stolen the design and is working on building their own.

我敢肯定中国已经偷了这个设计，而且正在仿制这个超级计算机。

congrats Japan, I knew you could do it

恭喜日本，我就知道你能做到

China doesn't announce how fast their new supercomputers are anymore because the US gets angry...

中国不再公布他们的新超级计算机有多快，担心惹美国生气…

GO JAPAN!

加油，日本！

Where's Samsung??????

三星呢?

Meh, Honeywell, and American company just set the record for quantum computing.

霍尼韦尔刚刚创造了量子计算的记录。

If USA would have not sanctioned in chips, China would surpass it sooner in half a year.

如果美国没有在芯片方面实施制裁，中国将在半年之内超过美国。

I can live with it being Japan and not China. Japan is our friend and ally present day.

日本的超算超过我们，我可以接受，如果是中国的，那就无法接受。日本现在是我们的盟友。

Japan is always ahead of everybody else, watched tv shows on a cell phone there in 1996.

日本人总是领先于其他国家，1996年日本人就用手机看电视节目了。
