Arrhenius GPU
NAISS runs Arrhenius at Linköping University as a EuroHPC system for demanding simulation and compute-heavy AI, from neural network training to personalised medicine, materials and high-resolution climate modelling.
What it runs and how to get time
From the operator- Used for What the operator says the system is used for: science domains, missions or workloads. Taken from the operator, its funder or the system vendor, not from TOP500.
- AI model training, personalised medicine, materials development, life science simulation, fluid dynamics and high-resolution climate simulation 5
- How to get time How researchers or customers get time on the system, naming the allocation programme where the operator states one.
- NAISS Small, Medium and Large allocation rounds, free for researchers at Swedish universities and research institutes 6
- Cooling Cooling design stated by the operator or supplier.
- Primarily direct liquid cooled 5
- Facility Building, data centre or campus that houses the system, as described by the operator.
- Computer hall in B Building, Campus Valla, Linköping University, Linköping 4
- Production start Month the operator says the system entered production.
- 2026-05 4
- Status Operating status, filled only when the operator states it.
- In production 4
Benchmark and hardware
Source per value- Rank Position in the TOP500 edition named in the Edition column. Historic systems keep the rank of the edition where they last appeared.
- 42 1
- Rmax PFLOP/s Measured double-precision LINPACK (HPL) performance of the listed configuration. Older TFLOP/s and GFLOP/s figures are converted to PFLOP/s.
- 66.82 1
- Rpeak PFLOP/s Theoretical peak double-precision performance of the listed configuration. This is not AI or mixed-precision throughput.
- 84.02 1
- HPL efficiency % Rmax divided by Rpeak: the share of theoretical peak the system delivered on LINPACK. Computed from the two sourced figures.
- 79.5 1
- Power kW Power reported for the benchmark run. Measurement boundaries vary by site; this is not facility power, TDP or cooling capacity. Empty when the system does not report it.
- 1,088 1
- Efficiency GFLOP/s per W Rmax per watt of reported benchmark power, computed from the two sourced figures (GFLOP/s per W). Empty when power is not reported.
- 61.42 1
- Site Host or operator named by TOP500 for the installation.
- EuroHPC/NAISS (National Academic Infrastructure for Supercomputing in Sweden) 1
- Country Country or region reported by TOP500 for the site.
- Sweden 1
- City Site city as reported by TOP500 or the operator. It can be the operator address rather than the machine room.
- Linköping 3
- Region World region of the installation country (grouping applied by this site).
- Europe 1
- Vendor Manufacturer or system supplier exactly as submitted to TOP500.
- HPE 1
- Vendor group Supplier grouped for filtering. Bull is the Eviden/Atos line; Other covers single-system suppliers.
- HPE 1
- System model Hardware platform in the cited TOP500 edition.
- HPE Cray EX254n 1
- Processor CPU description in the cited TOP500 edition; clock and core count refer to the processor model.
- NVIDIA Grace 72C 3.1GHz 1
- Accelerator Accelerator model listed for the system. Empty when TOP500 lists none.
- NVIDIA GH200 Superchip 1
- Accelerator vendor Maker of the accelerator. None listed means TOP500 names no accelerator for the system.
- NVIDIA 1
- Interconnect Network fabric exactly as listed in the cited TOP500 edition.
- Slingshot-11 1
- Fabric Interconnect family derived from the listed interconnect (grouping applied by this site).
- Slingshot 1
- Cores cores Total cores submitted to TOP500, including accelerator cores where TOP500 counts them. Not a CPU-only count and not a CUDA-core count.
- 310,080 1
- Installed Installation year reported in the TOP500 system record. Not necessarily the year of production acceptance.
- 2026 2
- Edition TOP500 edition (YYYY-MM) that supplies the ranking and benchmark data. A historic edition does not assert current operating status.
- 2026-06 1
- OS Operating system from the TOP500 system record.
