2016年中国高性能计算机发展现状分析与展望

State-of-Art Analysis and Perspectives of 2016 China HPC

本文根据2016年11月发布的中国高性能计算机TOP100排行榜的数据,对国内高性能计算机的发展现状从总体性能、制造商、行业领域等方面进行了深入分析。我们发现,由于神威太湖之光超级计算机的发布,中国TOP100的平均Linpack性能继续保持比国际TOP500平均Linpack性能高的局面,且TOP100的入门性能门槛仍然超过TOP500。随着联想对IBM X86服务器并购的完成,中国TOP100上的超级计算系统已经几乎全部都是国产超算系统,曙光、联想和浪潮三强争霸的局面已经形成。在此基础上,本文根据十五届排行榜积累的性能数据和能够得到的其他公开历史数据,对未来几年中国大陆高性能计算机的发展趋势进行了分析预测。我们去年的预测累计Linpack性能将在2016年间达到100Petaflops和峰值100Petaflops的机器将在2016年出现都成功实现,预测准确。根据新的数据,我们认为:累计Linpack性能将在2017年到2018年间达到1000Petaflops,峰值Exaflops的机器将在2018年到2019年间出现。

In this paper,according to China HPC TOP100 rank list published in November 2106,the performance,manufacturer,and application area of 2016 China TOP100 supercomputers are analyzed in detail.We found that due to the release of Sunway Taihu Light,China＇s TOP100 average Linpack performance remains higher than the international average Linpack performance rank of bureau,and the quality of the TOP100 entry threshold is still more than the TOP500.As Lenovo complet the acquisition of IBM X86,the super computing system of China TOP100 are has nearly all on the domestic system,Sugon,lenovo and Inspru have formed three-horse race situation.On this basis,according to the performance data of 15top accumulation and will be able to get the other public history data,for the next few years the Chinese mainland is analyzed and predicted the development trend of high performance computer.Based on the public available historical data and the data of peak performance in previous 15 China HPC TOP100lists,we predicted that in China the supercomputer system with peak Linpack performance 100 petaflops appeared in 2016 is correct.According to the new data,we predict that the total Linpack performance of China TOP100 would surpass 1000 petaflops between 2017 and 2018,and the Exaflops supercomputer would appear between 2018 and 2019 in China.
