The supercomputer, installed at the joint Russian-Chinese University of Moscow State University of Physics and Technology in Shenzhen, helps scientists conduct research in the field of geological exploration and studying the properties of materials. According to Boris Budak, Dean of the Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics at Moscow State University, the system is involved in projects related to computed tomography and data processing in solving complex inverse problems.
The first stage of the computing complex was put into operation last year. In the future, its capacity is planned to be increased to 20 petaflops, which will expand the range of research. Currently, the supercomputer is about 90% loaded and is actively used to simulate physical processes that require high computational accuracy.
MSU-SPI University in Shenzhen is the first joint university established by Russia and China. He cooperates with more than a hundred educational and scientific organizations of the two countries. In 2025, the number of students reached 4.2 thousand, of which about 600 represent Russia, Belarus and other countries.
