World’s Fastest? SBU Computer Ain’t Crying Wolf
In November 2020, Stony Brook University unveiled its Ookami supercomputer, powered by Fujitsu's A64FX Arm-based processor—the same technology behind Japan's Fugaku, the world's fastest supercomputer at the time. This installation marked a significant advancement in the university's computational capabilities, enabling researchers to tackle complex scientific challenges with enhanced efficiency. The Ookami project was supported by the National Science Foundation and aimed to provide the U.S. research community with access to cutting-edge high-performance computing resources
