Abstract

After two-year-long discussion, we are about to start the Peta-Scale Supercomputer project. The target performance is currently 10 Peta FLOPS for a few selected codes and one Peta FLOPS for major applications. It will start operation in March, 2011, and then its capability will be enlarged in 2011. Finally, it will be completed in March, 2012. The project will end in March, 2013.
