NEC also provides the plan for a successor product of SX-ACE. NEC has launched SX-ACE by aiming at a much higher sustained performance particularly for memory-intensive applications. It is designed based on the big core strategy targeting higher sustained performance. It provides both the world top-level single core performance of 64 GFlops and the world highest memory bandwidth per core of 64 GBytes/s. This high capability core has demonstrated the highest peak performance ratio with competitive power consumption for the HPCG benchmark program that is designed to create a more relevant metric for ranking HPC systems than the High Performance LINPACK. NEC will also talk about the vision and concept of its future vector architectural product, which is aimed at not only conventional high-performance computing but also emerging big data analytics applications.
