Question

Define Supercomputer in Detail.....

Only By Aces....

Answer 1

Hai Friend, Here are some details on Supercomputers...

>Supercomputers are the biggest, most powerful and expensive computers available today....
>They can process trillions of instructions per second...
>They always aim at executing few programs as fast as possible, whereas a mainframe executes many programs simultaneously...
>They use specialized applications that require a lot of mathematical calculations such as weather forecasting and nuclear energy research...

Examples: Belle, Deep Blue, Hydra and Param 8000 made in India.....

Hope this Helps you....

Answer 2

the fastest type of computer. Supercomputers are very expensive and are employed for specialized applications that require immense amounts of mathematical calculations. For example, weather forecasting requires a supercomputer. Other uses of supercomputers include animated graphics, fluid dynamic calculations, nuclear energy research, and petroleum exploration.

it can be defined as,

a supercomputer is a computer that performs at or near the currently highest operational rate for computers.  Traditionally, supercomputers have been used for scientific and engineering applications that must handle very large databases or do a great amount of computation (or both).

as of June 2016, the fastest supercomputer in the world was the Sunway TaihuLight, in the city of Wixu in China.
supercomputer PARAM 8000 (made by C-DAC) was launched on July 01, 1991 is considered India's first supercomputer.
Advanced Numerical Research and Analysis Group (ANURAG) is a laboratory of the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). it is involved in the development of computing solutions for numerical analysis and their use in other DRDO projects.

Some other examples of supercomputers are:

Titan, Sequoia,K Computer, Mira, JUQUEEN, SuperMUC
