Best supercomputer CIS became more powerful than a quarter.

Released the tenth edition of 50 rating the most powerful supercomputers CIS. It continues to be led by a set of MVS-100K set in Mezhvedomstvennomcuperkompyuternom center of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Peak performance of the MIF-100K is 95 teraflops. In autumn 2008, this figure was 75 teraflopsam. Number of processors MFR-100K during this period increased from 1564 to 1980. In the rating of 500 most powerful supercomputers world, this system takes place 35.
The second place ranking remained supercomputer SKIF located in the MSU. Its peak performance is 60 teraflopsam. Also in the top ten most powerful supercomputers CIS includes computing facilities, located in Ufa, Russia, Taganrog, Kirov, Krasnoyarsk and Chelyabinsk.
Note that total peak performance of systems in the ranking the most powerful supercomputers in the autumn of the CIS in 2008 increased by 14.95 per cent, reaching 510 teraflops. Average peak performance for the first time exceeded ten teraflops.
In the tenth edition of 50 rating the most powerful supercomputers CIS number of systems based on Intel processors has decreased to 37. On AMD processors built seven supercomputers. At the core of five computer systems based on chips IBM, based in one - HP.
A leading manufacturer of supercomputers in the CIS became the "T-Platforms". It accounted for 17 of the 50 computer systems that are included in the rating. HP had been set up 11 supercomputers, IBM - eight.
Currently, the most powerful supercomputers world is IBM Roadrunner, located in the United States. Its peak performance is 1456 teraflops, almost three times more than the total peak performance 50 best computing capacity CIS.
