超级计算机（supercomputers）通常是指由数百数千甚至更多的处理器（机）
Supercomputers usually refer to hundreds of thousands or more processors.
组成的、能计算普通PC机和服务器不能完成的大型复杂课题的计算机。超级计算机是计算机中功能最强、运算速度最快、存储容量最大的一类计算机，是国家科技发展水平和综合国力的重要标志。超级计算机拥有最强的并行计算能力，主要用于科学计算。在气象、军事、能源、航天、探矿等领域承担大规模、高速度的计算任务。在结构上，虽然超级计算机和服务器都可能是多处理器系统，二者并无实质区别，但是现代超级计算机较多采用集群系统，更注重浮点运算的性能，可看着是一种专注于科学计算的高性能服务器，而且价格非常昂贵。一般的超级计算器耗电量相当大，一秒钟电费就要上千，超级计算器的CPU至少50核也就是说是家用电脑的10倍左右，处理速度也是相当的快，但是这种CPU是无法购买的，而且价格要上千万。
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.
