*6 SuperMUC :-
On 20 th July 2012, Super MUC, Europe’s fastest and extremely energy - efficient supercomputer with a peak capacity of more than 3 petaflops, was inaugurated by the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities. Super MUC was already included in the 4 th PRACE Regular Call for Proposals and 200 million of Super MUC’s core hours ( out of the 1.134 million core hours for the entire Call ) were allocated to top-level research projects. The Leibniz Supercomputing Center ( LRZ ) that runs Super MUC added the inauguration to the festivities surrounding its 50th anniversary.
Super MUC is the number 4 on the world-wide TOP 500 of fastest supercomputers ( 18th June 2012 ) and is an IBM System x IDataPlex consisting of 155.000 cores. With peak capacity of more than 3 petaflops it can perform 3 quadrillion calculations per second ( a quadrillion is a 1 with 15 zeros ) . Researchers using the power of Super MUC also have 330 Terabyte of main memory at their disposal. The interconnect is a non-blocking InfiniBand Network with Fat Tree topology.
