Ngokuhlangana okuthakazelisayo, amakhilomitha angu-1.4 nje ukusuka enkundleni ephithizelayo yaseCamp Nou e-Barcelona, isonto limi njengendawo engalindelekile yekhompyutha esebenza kahle kakhulu. Lokhu kuhlangana okumangalisayo akukhona okunye ngaphandle kwesikhungo esidumile se-Barcelona Supercomputing Centre (BSC), esivame ukudunyiswa “njengesikhungo Sekhompiyutha Esijabulisa Kakhulu Emhlabeni Esijabulisa Kakhulu,” okusenza sibe ingqopha-mlando okumelwe ivakashelwe abashisekeli bezobuchwepheshe kanye nobufakazi bobuchule bukaLenovo ku- imboni.
Kungani kufanele ubeke isikhungo sekhompyutha esisebenza kahle kakhulu esontweni? Lesi sinqumo, esibonakala sisothando, sisekelwe ezicathulweni ze-pragmatic. Phakathi nesigaba sokuqala sokusethwa kweqoqo, bekunefasitela eliqinile lezinyanga ezi-4 kuphela lokulungiselela, obekudingeka ukuba kube nebhilidi elibanzi nelifanele ukuthunyelwa ngokushesha. Isonto le-Chapel Torre Girona lihambisana kahle nenqubo, ngophahla lwalo oluphakeme olusiza ukunqanyulwa kokushisa kwemvelo kanye nokuba seduze kwalo nombonisi wephrojekthi, i-Catalonia's Polytechnic University (UPC).
Ngo-2004, ngemizamo yokubambisana yoMnyango Wezemfundo wase-Spain, uhulumeni wasekhaya wase-Catalan, kanye ne-UPC, le ndawo yasungulwa ngokusemthethweni njengeSikhungo Sekhompiyutha Kazwelonke sase-Spain. I-BSC igxile kakhulu ekuxazululeni izinkinga zesayensi ezisetshenziswayo, isayensi yekhompyutha, isayensi yempilo, isayensi yomhlaba, ukubikezela ikhwalithi yomoya, kanye nezicelo zedolobha ezihlakaniphile.
Isici esimangalisayo saleli qoqo lekhompuyutha elisebenza kakhulu elisekelwe esontweni ukukhethwa ngokucophelela kwemibala yekhebula, kusetshenziswa imibala yendabuko yaseCatalonia. Okunye okwengeza uzungu umnikelo obalulekile wobuchwepheshe baseShayina, eqala ngokubambisana kweLenovo ne-IBM ekuletheni ikhompyutha esebenza kahle kakhulu ye-MareNostrum 4, eziqhayisa ngokusebenza okuphezulu kwama-petaflops angu-11.15.
Ngo-2022, i-BSC kanye noLenovo bafaka isivumelwano sokubambisana socwaningo, behlela ukutshala izigidi eziyisi-7 zamaRandi eminyakeni emithathu ekuthuthukiseni ikhompuyutha esebenza kahle kulo lonke elaseSpain kanye ne-European Union. Imizamo yabo ehlanganyelwe ihlanganisa izinhlobonhlobo zezindawo, kusukela ekusetshenzisweni kwemithi enembayo kuye ekwakhiweni kwe-chip, ikhompyutha esebenza kahle kakhulu esimeme, kanye nokuthuthukiswa kwesikhungo sedatha. Umzamo wakamuva ubandakanya ukufakwa kwekhompyutha esebenza kahle kakhulu ye-MareNostrum 5, iLenovo ibambe iqhaza elikhulu kule nqubo.
Ukusebenza okuhlongozwayo kwe-MareNostrum 5 kusethelwe ukuyibeka phakathi kwezingu-20 eziphezulu ohlwini lwamanje lwe-TOP500. Ngokuphawulekayo, i-MareNostrum 4 ime njengomunye wezinhlelo zekhompuyutha ezisebenza kahle kakhulu emhlabeni wonke, ezizuza kakhulu kuzixazululo zekhompiyutha ze-Lenovo ezisebenziseka kalula.
Le nhlanganisela emangalisayo yezakhiwo zakudala kanye nobuchwepheshe obuthuthukisiwe igcizelela uhlobo olusha lwekhompyutha esebenza kahle kakhulu. Ukuzibophezela kukaLenovo ekwehliseni imingcele yamakhono ekhompyutha, kokubili eShayina nakwamanye amazwe, kubonakala ekusebenzisaneni okuhlukahlukene kanye negalelo abakwenzayo. Lokhu kuhlangana kobuchwepheshe, ingqalasizinda, nokusebenza kahle kwamandla kukulungele ukulolonga ikusasa lendawo yedijithali, futhi indima kaLenovo kulolu hambo lwenguquko iyaphawuleka, ikhombisa umthelela omkhulu wenkampani enkundleni yekhompyutha yomhlaba wonke.
