Chinese supercomputer computing power in Zimbabwe Africa’s second post
Xinhua reported February 8 , aided by the Chinese government , the construction of the wave of the Group of high-performance supercomputing centers in Zimbabwe (the Supercomputer Center ) on the 6th delivery. Zimbabwe says it makes Zimbabwe supercomputer has become the fifth African country , its computing power ranked second in Africa .
Xinhua reported February 8 , aided by the Chinese government , the construction of the wave of the Group of high-performance supercomputing centers in Zimbabwe (the Supercomputer Center ) on the 6th delivery. Zimbabwe says it makes Zimbabwe supercomputer has become the fifth African country , its computing power ranked second in Africa .
According to reports, Zimbabwe Supercomputer Center is located within the University of Zimbabwe , computing speed of 36 trillion times per second , the storage capacity of 72TB, the system includes independent research on behalf of China ‘s highest level of fault-tolerant servers and high-end TS850 TS10000 high-performance server, you can assume the life sciences, research mission fields of climate weather, education and scientific research .
Core equipment worth about Zimbabwe Supercomputer Center 33 million yuan , interest-free loan provided by the Chinese government aided , central location houses and other facilities provided by Zimbabwe .
Huang Gang , vice president of the wave of the Group , said: ” High Performance Supercomputing Center is a national scientific and technological progress and innovation boosters, can drive a number of industry and train a number of high-quality talent with this basic platform , I predict Zimbabwe. scientific and technological strength have 5-10 years of rapid development . “
For example, he said , Zimbabwe in southern Africa as a large agricultural country, the meteorological analysis of food security, cotton production , the quality of the tobacco control plays an important role , but the National Weather Service forecast level Tianjin climate and weather is still very low , only through the PC to calculate, can not predict long-term climate change and disaster forecasting , Chinese supercomputer is expected to change this situation.
Huang Gang said that the current use of most of the world ‘s information technology core equipment from the United States , but China has gradually produced can replace core equipment of the US information technology products for the developing countries to provide another possibility – China Technology .
Zimbabwe’s Minister of Higher Education and continuing education , science and technology in ancient Mukhin said the Zimbabwean government subsidized sector to gain a foothold in the field of information science is full of expectations . She believes Supercomputer Center in use will bring “revolutionary change ” to promote mining, agriculture , creative industries and other economic sectors achieved rapid development .
