Kylin Linux
State-endorsed Chinese distribution. Its presence is the clearest single indicator that a system's software layer has been domestically substituted.
Why this part
A state-backed distribution rather than a community or commercial one, and its presence on Tianhe-1A and Tianhe-2A is one of the clearest software-layer signals of a system's policy posture in this entire dataset. Nothing about Kylin's technical merits is unusual; a Linux distribution is a Linux distribution. The fact that a system runs a state-endorsed one rather than RHEL or Ubuntu is itself the data point, and it is why this dataset tracks the operating system as a sourced component rather than an assumed default.

“Units recorded” sums only the edges where a public source states a quantity. It is a floor, not a total, and should never be read as installed base.
