Abstract

In this report we review the history of high-performance computing (HPC) system development and applications in China and describe the current status of major government programs, HPC centers and facilities, major research institutions, important HPC application fields, and domestic vendor activities. A comparison between China and developed nations, such as the United States, European countries, and Japan, in terms of system development level, application level, and long-term planning, is also briefly provided. In addition, the authors also include a few predictions about future directions for Chinaâ聙聶s HPC technology and applications.
