Tomsk State University (TSU) has updated the equipment of the SKIF Cyberia supercomputer. This was reported by the university's press service.
The dedicated segment of the supercomputer will serve the projects of the domestic NICA accelerator.
Our physicists will be able to process large amounts of data, and their models will be more accurate. Also, to process this data, we purchased servers with graphic accelerators, which will allow us to use artificial intelligence algorithms in high-energy physics.
The servers include 640 computing cores, graphic accelerators for launching artificial intelligence algorithms, more than 2.8 TB of RAM, and a high-speed data storage system with a capacity of 90 TB. SKIF Cyberia ranks 36th in the list of the most powerful supercomputers in the CIS with a peak performance of 239 trillion operations per second.
Scientists plan to transfer the international experience gained at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN to the Russian hadron supercollider NICA.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that Russia will develop a new generation supercomputer.
