与全球信息产业息息相关的、作为核心部分的高性能计算机(HPC)的能耗已经成为一个日益突出的热点问题。据了解,一个10亿次的计算中心每年的电费就将近400万元,相当于8万个普通家庭一个月的用电。因此,在倡导建设可持续发展的和谐社会的今天,高性能计算机的节能减排工作刻不容缓。信息产业部的有关负责人表示,高性能计算机的节能问题,是一个非常重要的问题,由于其涉及的范围广泛、技 The energy consumption of high performance computer (HPC), which is closely related to the global information industry, has become an increasingly prominent issue. It is understood that a billion times a year’s computing center will be nearly 4 million yuan in electricity, equivalent to 80,000 ordinary families a month of electricity. Therefore, advocating building a harmonious society of sustainable development today, energy-saving emission reduction of high-performance computers urgent work. The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Information Industry said that the issue of energy-saving high-performance computers, is a very important issue, because of its wide range of involved,
