ASC17 Student Cluster Competition Results

In this podcast, the Radio Free HPC team reviews the results
from the ASC17 Student Cluster Competition finals in Wuxi, China.
In the end, Tsinghua University won the overall competition,
beating 20 teams from around the world.  

"As the world's largest supercomputing competition, ASC17
received applications from 230 universities around the world, 20 of
which got through to the final round held this week at the National
Supercomputing Center in Wuxi after the qualifying rounds. During
the final round, the university student teams were required to
independently design a supercomputing system under the precondition
of a limited 3000W power consumption. They also had to operate and
optimize standard international benchmark tests and a variety of
cutting-edge scientific and engineering applications including
AI-based transport prediction, genetic assembly, and material
science. Moreover, they were required to complete high-resolution
maritime simulation on the world's fastest supercomputer, Sunway
TaihuLight.
