The 2011 Gordon Bell Prize,Peak Performance Award


The research paper “Simulation of Electronic States of Silicon Nanowire” using the K Computer won the Peak Performance Award of the 2011 Gordon Bell Prize. They performed a first-principles calculation of nanowire of 100,000 silicon atoms using the Real- Space Density Functional Theory (RSDFT), which was featured in Torrent No.3, and achieved 3.08 petaflops (43.6% of peak performance). The Peak Performance Award is si since the Earth Simulator (1st generation) in 2004. Photo provided by RIKEN: The 2nd from the left on the front row is the RSDFT developer, Junichi Iwata.
