EKA, the supercomputer built at the Computational Research Laboratories (CRL), subsidiary of Tata in Pune has grabbed the top place in the list of Top500 Supercomputers announced at SC07, the international conference for high-performance computing, networking, storage and analysis at Reno, Nevada, USA.
The EKA has been rated as the fourth fastest supercomputer in the world and fastest supercomputer in Asia.
This Indian super computer uses nearly 1800 computing nodes and has a peak performance of 170 Teraflops (TFlops or Trillion Floating Point Operations per Second). Moreover, it delivers a sustained performance of 120 Teraflops based on the LINPACK benchmarks which are used by the world-wide community to rank supercomputers based on performance.
