Super Computer

1.  Super computer.

 

Multi user, multi processor, most powerful, large computers of very high efficiency and storage capacity is called super computer. It is able to solve complex problems with in a nano seconds. It is fastest and expensive of all. Supercomputer is a computer that led the in terms of processing capacity, particularly the speed of calculation, at the time of its introduction. The term "Super Computing" was first used by the New York World newspaper in 1929 to refer target custom-built tabulators IBM made for Columbia University. It was used to solve problems involving by major universities, military agencies and scientific research laboratories. Supercomputers are designed to handle very high volume input and output (I/O) and emphasize throughout computing. It is very large in size, must fastest, very storage capacity, more expensive than other types of computer. so it is called supercomputer. E.G. ERAY-1, CYBER 205 etc.
