Moscow State Technical University (MSTU) NE Bauman created the world’s first supercomputer with processors built on the domestic microarchitecture “Leonard Euler” – “Teragraph”. This was reported to socialbites.ca by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, and the general designer of the project, Alexei Popov, spoke in detail.
The computer is designed to work with pseudo-graphics. Charts are collections of objects and the relationships between them, based on the parameters of those objects. By isolating graphs and their connections in large databases, Teragraph can create digital copies of complex real systems, whether cities or the human body.
Alexey Popov said that Teragraph’s long-term feature of working with graphs will allow digital twins of humans to be created and experimented on with different treatment modalities to select the most effective one. Analyzing the initial data, the processor will offer different solutions for the treatment process. He calls this feature of the device “intuition”.
“Imagine you have various parameters of the human body displayed on your computer. In the program, you can monitor the effects of different drugs without endangering the patient. Popov can apply the treatment to the person after choosing the most appropriate solution in the program.
Popov also noted that, despite the prototype stage, the Moscow Department of Information Technologies and the Center for Systems Biology in Rospotrebnadzor are already interested in the project.
Currently, the Teragraph is being prepared for pilot use within the walls of Bauman University. According to Popov, the supercomputer will be used to calculate threats to state security based on graphs prepared by the development team. The project should start before the end of 2022.
