DEGIMA The DEGIMA (DEstination for Gpu Intensive MAchine) is a high performance computer cluster used for hierarchical N-body simulations at the Nagasaki Advanced Computing Center, Nagasaki University. The system consists of a 144-node cluster of PCs connected via an InfiniBand interconnect. Each node is composed of 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 920 processor, two GeForce GTX295 graphics cards, 12 GB DDR3-1333 memory and Mellanox MHES14-XTC SDR InfiniBand host adapter on MSI X58 pro-E mother board. Each graphics card has two GT200 GPU chips. As a whole, the system has 144 CPUs and 576 GPUs. It runs astrophysical N-body simulations with over 3,000,000,000 particles using the Multiple-Walk parallel treecode.〔Hamada T. ''et al.'' (2009) A novel multiple-walk parallel algorithm for the Barnes–Hut treecode on GPUs – towards cost effective, high performance N-body simulation. ''Comput. Sci. Res. Development'' 24:21-31. 〕 The system is noted for being highly cost and energy-efficient, having a peak performance of 111 TFLOPS with an energy efficiency of 1376 MFLOPS/watt. The overall cost of the hardware was approximately US$500,000.〔(The Green500 June 2011 ) Environmentally Responsible Supercomputing, The Green500 List〕〔Hamada T., Nitadori K.

In ''Proceedings of the 2010 ACM/IEEE International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis'' (SC '10). IEEE Computer Society, Washington, DC, USA, 1-9. 〕 The name of the system is also derived from the name of a small artificial island called "Dejima" in Nagasaki. ==See also==
