Tera-10 Tera-10 TERA-10 is a supercomputer built by Bull SA for the French Commissariat à l'Énergie Atomique, (Atomic Energy Commission). TERA-10 was ranked 142nd on the TOP500 list in 2010. By 2015 it had dropped off the bottom of the list. It runs at 52.84 teraFLOPs (52.84 trillion floating point calculations per second) using nearly 10,000 processor cores (in about 4800 dual-core processors). It runs the Linux operating system, with an SMP kernel specially modified to handle very large symmetric clusters currently cadenced by an 8-processors central system. Its main application is the simulation of atomic experiences and the maintenance of
