<strong>Quintillion operations per second</strong> - this is a lot, and now in any country in any country there are not so fast supercomputers. China continues to lead in the race of supercomputers, creating very powerful cars faster than all and overtaking Japan and the United States. Most importantly, supercomputers are always used in various industries. <strong>So, released a few years ago, Tianhe-1 serves 1600 research teams from different cities and helps to conduct 1200 innovative Chinese projects</strong>, simultaneously helping to create medicines, forecasting weather and performing other important tasks.

<em>Now China accounts for the largest number of supercomputers - 202.</em>
