Supercomputer "Sergey Godunov" for predicting epidemics and crises launched in Novosibirsk

The performance of the computing system will increase to 120.4 TFlops in 2024

Employees of the Sobolev Institute of Mathematics (part of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences) in Novosibirsk have launched a powerful supercomputer "Sergey Godunov".

The computer equipment, named after the outstanding Soviet mathematician Sergey Godunov, who worked at the Russian Academy of Sciences, will create special mathematical models. With their help, scientists will be able to predict epidemics, environmental and economic crises.

The supercomputer was created with funds from a grant received under the national project "Science and Universities".

This year we received grant funds - more than 40 million rubles for updating the instrument base. With this money, we plan to increase the power of the supercomputer
Acting Director of the Sobolev Institute of Mathematics Andrey Mironov

It is expected that in 2024 the power of "Sergey Godunov" will grow to 120.4 Teraflops. The supercomputer is built on the basis of computing nodes, each of which is equipped with two 3rd generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors. Its current performance is 54.4 Teraflops.

Earlier, MAI increased the power of the supercomputer to 380 Teraflops, now its total performance has reached 380 Teraflops. A proprietary supercomputer also appeared at Moscow State University, the project has been developed since 2020.
