Taishan Advances to Top 3 in CSL Title Race with Strong Performance

The Chinese Language Supercomputer (CSL) Taishan has once again taken the top spot in the prestigious China Software League (CSL) title race, marking another impressive achievement for this highly advanced supercomputer.

According to the latest figures from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), Taishan achieved its highest performance ever during the last quarter of 2021, achieving an overall score of 97.8 out of 100. This marks a significant improvement from the previous year's performance, which was 95.4 out of 100.

One of the key factors contributing to Taishan's performance improvement is its rapid development and deployment in various scientific and engineering projects across China. The CSIR's National Centre for Advanced Research in Artificial Intelligence (NCARI) has been working closely with Taishan to develop cutting-edge AI technologies, while the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) has also supported Taishan's research efforts in areas such as artificial intelligence and machine learning.

In addition to its strong performance in the CRL title race, Taishan also achieved several other notable achievements in recent years. For example, it was one of the first Chinese supercomputers to be awarded the IEEE Global Computing Prize, demonstrating its ability to compete at the international level. Furthermore, Taishan was one of the first Chinese supercomputers to achieve a peak CPU clock speed of over 100GHz, showcasing its potential for high-performance computing applications.

Overall, Taishan's impressive performance in the CRL title race highlights its continued growth and development as a leading supercomputer in China. With its strong research capabilities and innovative technology solutions, Taishan is well-positioned to continue playing a vital role in advancing China's scientific and technological progress.
