Supercomputers
Unique in that unlike mainframes & personal
computers, designed to focus all their resources and
capabilities on a single task at a time
Early supercomputers used a single or a few processors
working in parallel
They are always ON, and always accessible. That is, the
user can always enter and execute commands, even
while walking around or doing other activities
