Iranian Mehr News Agency reports that Iran will unveil the domestically made supercomputer named “ARA”, which has been made mostly for security purposes.
According to Abbas Jam, director of Saman Communication Development Holding Company, the supercomputer, which has been created entirely by Iranian scientists in Iran’s Science and Technology Park in Mazandaran province, will be unveiled in the early December.
“ARA” supercomputer is able not only to identify and reveal security holes in websites but also gain access to restricted data.
Note, Iran’s first supercomputer was introduced about nine years ago with a power of 860 billion operations per second by AUT. The machines were introduced in Iran around 10 years by the AUT. Iranian engineers and technicians have been making efforts to increase the computational capacities of the devices ever since.
Supercomputers are computers that are at the frontline of current processing capacity, particularly speed of calculation.
