On April 28th, 2017, Team SYSU won the 1st prize in the 2017 ASC Student Supercomputer Challenge (ASC17), the largest supercomputer contest in the world. Among 6 performance optimization tests, Team SYSU obtained 2nd place for the performance optimization of MASNUM, whose runtime was slightly longer than that of Tsinghua University but 4 to 100 times shorter than the others.
