It has 426 computing nodes and offers a total of 8,520 cores (CPU cores).<\/li>\n<li>Fat nodes island with large memory nodes, consisting of 44 Dell PowerEdge R820 servers. Each server offers 4 Intel Xeon E5-4650v2 processors and 512 GB of central memory.<\/li>\n<li>GPU nodes island with GPU accelerated nodes, consisting of 44 Dell PowerEdge R730 servers. Each server contains 2 Intel Xeon E5-2660v3 processors, 64 GB of memory and 2 NVidia K40 GPU cards.<\/li>\n<li>Phi nodes with Xeon Phi accelerated nodes consisting of 18 Dell PowerEdge R730 servers. Each server contains 2 Intel Xeon E5-2660v3 processors, 64 GB memory and 2 Intel Xeon Phi 7120P co-processors.<\/li>\n<li>Machine learning node island, consisting of 1 server, which contains 2 Intel E5-2698v4 processors, 512 GB of central memory and 8 NVIDIA V100 GPU cards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The theoretical computing power of the system reaches 535 teraFlops (trillions of floating point operations per second).
