Abstract :
In late October 2011, the Sunway BlueLight MPP made headlines as China´s first high- performance computer to harness the power of a homegrown chip, the ShenWei SW1600. And the Dawning 6000, scheduled to come on line in December 2011, will use another indigenous processor, the Godson-3B. These are supercomputers that China can truly call its own.
