摘要
A supercomputer with 1.0 Petaflops peak performance in single precision, designed and established by Institute of Process Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, is introduced in this brief communication. A designing philosophy utilizing the similarity between hardware, software and the problems to be solved is embodied, based on the multi-scale method and discrete simulation approaches developed at Institute of Process Engineering （IPE） and implemented in a graphic processing unit （GPU）-based hybrid computing mode. The preliminary applications of this machine in areas of multi-phase flow, molecular dynamics and so on are reported, demonstrating the supercomputer as a paradigm of green computation in new architecture.
