Earth Simulator

1. In July 1996, as part of the Global Change Prediction Plan, the promotion of research & development for the Earth Simulator has been reported to the Science Technology Agency, based on the report titled "For Realization of the Global Change Prediction" made by the Aero-Electronics Technology Committee.

2. In April 1997, the budget for the development of the Earth Simulator was authorized to be allocated to National Space Development Agency of Japan (NASDA) and Power Reactor and Nuclear Fuel Development Corporation (PNC). The Earth Simulator Research and Development Center was established, with Dr. Miyoshi assigned for the director of the center. The project had begun.

3. Discussions were made regarding the Earth Simulator Project, at the meeting on the Earth Simulator under the Computer Science Technology Promotion Council (Chairman: Prof. Taro Matsuno of Hokkaido Univ.), which was held 6 times from March to July in 1997. With a report on "Promotion of Earth Simulator Project", specific proposals were put forward to Science and Technology Agency.

4. The conceptual system design of the Earth Simulator proposed by NEC Corporation was selected by bidding.

5. Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) had joined the project for PNC.

6. Under the Computer Science Technology Promotion Council, the Earth Simulator Advisory Committee was instituted with 7 members with profound knowledge in the area (Chairman: Prof. Yoshio Oyanagi of Tokyo Univ.). From June to July in 1998, five meetings were held on the basic design. As a result, in 24th of August it was confirmed with "The Evaluation Report for the basic design of the Earth Simulator".

7. In February 1999, JAMSTEC joined in the Earth Simulator development project and decided to build the Earth Simulator facility in Kanazawa ward in Yokohama, where it had been the industrial experiment station of Kanagawa prefecture. Manufacturing the Earth Simulator had begun in March 2000, under NASDA, JEARI, and JAMSTEC. After completion, the entire operation and management of the Earth Simulator was decided to be solely charged by JAMSTEC.

Earth simulator is the fastest supercomputer in the world. Nec had first built this japanese machine. Earth simulator uses parallel vector architecture to achieve a peak performance of 40 f flops. This system configured in 640 nodes of 8 vector processors each connected together by crossbar switch. Each node has a shared memory of 16 gb (total 10 tb). This japanese machine was built to analyze climate change, including global warming, as well as weather and earthquake patterns. Earth simulator has the power to create a virtual planet earth using its large processing capability. The vector processor used in this is fabricated in a single chip with 0.15-micron cmos technology. You cannot wait for results in weather predictions. we actually can predict the weather very accurately; the problem is it takes a week of computation to predict tomorrow s weather . This delay may cause considerable damage to human lives and economy. He earth simulator will answer the above problem. Using its high computational power it can predict weather fast and accurately. Within five years, scientists expect earth simulator s advanced modeling and simulation capabilities to bear fruit. Thanks to the new supercomputer, scientists expect to find powerful new ways to deal with anomalous events such as e1 nino, global warming, and long-term changes in the earth s crust and interior. According to jackdongorra in some sense we have a computer on our hands , referring to the time when the u.s. Was surprised by sputnik, the world s first satellite.
parallel vector architecture opens up a new way to develop future supercomputers. This technology has the advantages of both parallel and vector processing. We can connect a large number of vector modules to achieve more performance.
