China has taken the crown of the world’s most powerful supercomputer from the United States in a major achievement in the field of supercomputing. The new Chinese supercomputer Line Shine has managed to secure the first position in the global ranking Top 500, ending America’s long reign in this field._x000D_

This achievement is considered even more extraordinary because China has developed this machine entirely with the help of local technology. Despite US sanctions, Chinese engineers have proven that the country is rapidly moving towards self-sufficiency in modern technology by using chips, software and networking systems that they have developed._x000D_

China last managed to win the title of the world’s most powerful supercomputer in 2017. However, the machines used at that time also included some foreign technology. This time, the situation is different and it is being considered a major symbol of China’s technological independence._x000D_

According to reports, the supercomputer uses chips and local networking equipment manufactured by Huawei. Supercomputers are much more powerful than ordinary computers and perform highly complex scientific, medical and industrial calculations with the help of thousands of processors._x000D_

Earlier, the US El Capitan was considered the world’s most powerful supercomputer and held the top spot for about 18 months. However, according to the new ranking, the speed of the Chinese machine has reached 2.2 exaflops, while the US supercomputer is capable of 1.8 exaflops._x000D_

This development not only shows China’s superiority in the supercomputing race but is also considered an important milestone in the ongoing technology competition between the US and China.
