超級計算機（supercomputers）通常是指由數百數千甚至更多的處理器（機）
Supercomputers usually refer to hundreds of thousands or more processors.
組成的、能計算普通PC機和服務器不能完成的大型復雜課題的計算機。超級計算機是計算機中功能最強、運算速度最快、存儲容量最大的一類計算機，是國家科技發展水平和綜合國力的重要標志。超級計算機擁有最強的并行計算能力，主要用于科學計算。在氣象、軍事、能源、航天、探礦等領域承擔大規模、高速度的計算任務。在結構上，雖然超級計算機和服務器都可能是多處理器系統，二者并無實質區別，但是現代超級計算機較多采用集群系統，更注重浮點運算的性能，可看著是一種專注于科學計算的高性能服務器，而且價格非常昂貴。一般的超級計算器耗電量相當大，一秒鐘電費就要上千，超級計算器的CPU至少50核也就是說是家用電腦的10倍左右，處理速度也是相當的快，但是這種CPU是無法購買的，而且價格要上千萬。
Computers consisting of large and complex subjects that can be computed by ordinary PCs and servers. Supercomputers are the most powerful, fast and storage computers in computers. They are important symbols of the development level of national science and technology and comprehensive national strength. Supercomputers have the strongest parallel computing power and are mainly used in scientific computing. It undertakes large-scale and high-speed computational tasks in meteorology, military, energy, aerospace, prospecting and other fields. In structure, although supercomputers and servers may be multi-processor systems, there is no substantial difference between them, but modern supercomputers mostly use cluster systems and pay more attention to the performance of floating-point computing. It can be seen that they are a high-performance server focusing on scientific computing, and the price is very expensive. Usually, supercalculators consume a lot of power, which costs thousands of power in one second. The CPU of supercalculators is at least 50 cores, which is about 10 times faster than that of household computers. But this kind of CPU can not be purchased, and the price is tens of millions.
