NANJING - China's new supercomputing system, Sunway-TaihuLight, was named the world's fastest computer at the International Supercomputing Conference in Germany on Monday.
The National Supercomputing Center was also unveiled Monday in Wuxi, East China's Jiangsu province, where the new-generation supercomputer is installed.
With processing capacity of 125.436 petaflops (PFlops) per second, which means it can perform quadrillions of calculations per second at peak performance, Sunway-TaihuLight is the first supercomputer to achieve speeds in excess of 100 PFlops.
