MinoTauro: the most energy-efficient computer in Europe

MinoTauro is highest ranking European machine in the November 2011 edition of the Green500 List

The 7th most energ efficient in theThe 7th most energy-efficient in the world, the 3rd by architecture

Based on bullx nodes, equipped with Intel processors and NVIDIA GPUs

“The Bullx systems help institutions to reinforce Europe’s future competitiveness.


Bull strongly believes in this competitiveness, which can only be expressed through joining our R+D capabilities. In this sense the BSC is an example to all of us.”

Julio del Valle, Director of Bull Spain

Mont-Blanc: designing a new energy-efficient Exascale machine

Project will: Build a fully functional prototype using commercially available low-power embedded technology

D i E l hi tDesign an Exascale machine to overcome limitations identified in the prototype

Develop Exascale applications to run on this new generation of HPC systems

“Supercomputers, once built from hancrafted i it t f d h i


circuitry, were transformed when companies started assembling them from inexpensive PC-style microprocessors. Researchers in Barcelona are placing an early bet that the next big leap will be cellphone chips.”The Wall Street Journal
