SUCCESS IN ACTION

Research institute boosts performance by 4 times

The Institute of Statistical Mathematics refurbished its statistical science supercomputer system to achieve parallel computing performance that was over four times more powerful than its legacy system.

Challenge

Build the next-generation “statistical science supercomputer system” to expand the possibilities in statistical science research by quadrupling computing power.

Solution

Adopted a high-density, water-cooled, cluster HPC system that was able to achieve super-powerful 1.497PFLOPS computing performance with high energy efficiency.

Using a water-cooled system like HPE SGI 8600 makes it possible to continue operating at high clock rate.

Jun Adachi, PhD, associate professor, The Institute of Statistical Mathematics

Result

Accelerated research activities to open new grounds by achieving supercomputing of an unprecedented level that was once considered impossible.
