The Green500 list ranks computers from the TOP500 list of supercomputers in terms of energy efficiency. Typically measured as LINPACK FLOPS per watt.
As of November 2012, an Appro International, Inc. Xtreme-X supercomputer (Beacon) tops the current Green500 list with 2499 LINPACK MFLOPS/W. Beacon is deployed by NICS of the University of Tennessee and is a GreenBlade GB824M, Xeon E5-2670 based, eight cores (8C), 2.6 GHz, Infiniband FDR, Intel Xeon Phi 5110P computer.

Famous quotes containing the word list:
“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
