At SC17, ExaScaler and PEZY Computing Unveil Gyoukou Supercomputer with a High Combined Green500/Top500 Ranking

Denver, Colorado – Nov 16, 2017 – At SC17, ExaScaler and PEZY Computing unveiled their Gyoukou supercomputer whose Green500 and Top500 rankings attest to a unique combination of high efficiency and computing power. The Gyoukou supercomputer is installed at the Yokohama Research Institute in Japan.

PEZY supercomputers leverage 48V Factorized Power, a high efficiency, high density power distribution architecture. PEZY’s CPUs are co-packaged with Vicor’s Power-on-Package (“PoP”) Modular Current Multipliers (“MCMs”), which enable efficient, direct 48V to sub-1V current multiplication at the XPU.

ExaScaler and PEZY Computing also achieved the #1, #2 and #3 positions on the Green500. These supercomputer system installations also utilize 48V Factorized Power.
