As http://www.hpcwire.com reported on January 14 2010, it was learned from the National Supercomputing Center in Tianjin January 13 that the adjustment of the first parts to be installed in “Tianhe-1,” China’s first supercomputer which is capable of doing more than a quadrillion calculations per second, has been completed.

This signifies that the supercomputer is qualified to provide service for clients and the first parts to be installed in “Tianhe-1″ have been in trial use among important clients.

The calculation capability of the first “Tianhe-1″ systems that have already reached Tianjin is one-tenth of a fully-installed “Tianhe-1.”
