The configuration was upgraded in June 2017 and the computational capacity was increased to 27 TFlops thanks to 5 new 24-core nodes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The name Piray\u00fa is given by the native peoples to one of the characteristic creatures of the Argentine coastal fauna: the dorado (Salminus brasiliensis). This muscular fish is known for its speed and power, something that inspired the members of the consortium to choose a name for what would be the most powerful supercomputer (so far) in the region.<br><br>This project represents one of 17 productive innovation projects and highly complex equipment that was selected in the first call for proposals of the Santa Fe Science, Technology and Innovation Agency (ASACTEI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/ultimate-i.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Captura-1024x525.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-496\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ultimate-i.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Captura-1024x525.png 1024w, https:\/\/ultimate-i.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Captura-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/ultimate-i.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Captura-768x394.png 768w, https:\/\/ultimate-i.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Captura-1536x788.png 1536w, https:\/\/ultimate-i.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Captura.png 1671w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CONICET: is the largest research and technology agency in Argentina.
