Frontier uses a network of thousands of nodes, each a standalone supercomputer with one CPU and four GPUs. These nodes are connected by more than 90 miles of cable, which allows them to interact and collaborate on complex issues.The U.S. Oak Ridge National Laboratory supercomputer delivered a “High-Performance Linpack score of 1.35 exaflops, or 1.35 quintillion calculations per second,” announced a laboratory press release from Monday.

According to the November 2024 TOP500 list, Frontier is the second-fastest supercomputer globally. The supercomputer debuted as a top-ranking machine in 2022 and was the first machine to exceed exascale performance. Double-precision arithmetic is used in traditional simulations to achieve unmatched accuracy, such as those applied for modeling cancer cells or supernovas.

“We could already solve amazingly large problems on Frontier — the biggest science problems on the planet,” said Al Geist, an ORNL Corporate Fellow and Frontier project director.standalone supercomputer
