Abstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of the current state of the supercomputer industry in the world and in Russia and the prospects for its development.
In terms of methodological approach and tools, this article is a continuation of a series of similar analytical reviews by the authors.
The novelty of this work is not only in updating the information, taking into account the latest editions of the Top500 list, but also in focusing on the following: the global supercomputer industry is undergoing a radical restructuring – the transition from the «petascale era» to the «exascale era».
Russia will have to make the same transition with some delay.
Therefore, it is important to understand technological trends and features of solutions for the most powerful systems in the world in recent years.
This circumstance is given special attention in the work. And such an emphasis on trend analysis is one of the motivational goals of this work.
