Taiwania 3
Supercomputer of Taiwan / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Taiwania 3 (Traditional Chinese (Taiwan): 台灣杉三號) is one of the supercomputers made by Taiwan,[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][excessive citations] and also the newest one (August, 2021). It is placed in the National Center for High-performance Computing[11] of NARLabs. There are 50,400 cores in total with 900 nodes,[12][10] using Intel Xeon Platinum 8280 2.4 GHz CPU (28 Cores/CPU)[10][13] and using CentOS as Operating System.[14] It is an open access for public supercomputer.[15][16] It is currently open access to scientists and more to do specific research after getting permission from Taiwan's National Center for High-performance Computing.[12][17][18][10][19] This is the third supercomputer of the Taiwania series. It uses CentOS x86_64 7.8 as its system operator and Slurm Workload Manager as workflow manager to ensure better performance. Taiwania 3 uses InfiniBand HDR100 100 Gbit/s high speed Internet connection to ensure better performance of the supercomputer. The main memory capability is 192 GB. There's currently two Intel Xeon Platinum 8280 2.4 GHz CPU (28 Cores/CPU) inside each node. The full calculation capability is 2.7PFLOPS.[20] It is launched into operation in November 2020 before schedule due to the needed for COVID-19.[5][18][21] It is currently ranked number 227 on Top 500 list of June, 2021[14] and number 80 on Green 500 list.[22] It is manufactured by Quanta Computer, Taiwan Fixed Network, and ASUS Cloud.[14][17][23][24]
