KAROLINA HAS SUCCEEDED, TWICE, IN THE TOP500 LIST OF THE MOST POWERFUL SUPERCOMPUTERS IN THE WORLD
On Monday afternoon, the eyes of all supercomputer fans were literally glued to the announcement of the results of the TOP500 list, which determines the ranking of the most powerful supercomputers in the world. The TOP500 list has been announced since 1993, twice a year – in late June at the ISC International Conference in Germany and in November at the Supercomputing Conference in the USA. Especially tense moments were experienced this year at IT4Innovations National Supercomputing Center in Ostrava, which has sent the Karolina supercomputer to the competition.
