supercomputer
A broad term for one of the fastest computers currently available. Such computers are typically used for number crunching including scientific {simulations}, (animated) {graphic}s, analysis of geological data (e.g. in petrochemical prospecting), structural analysis, computational fluid dynamics, physics, chemistry, electronic design, nuclear energy research and meteorology. Perhaps the best known supercomputer manufacturer is {Cray Research}.
A less serious definition, reported from about 1990 at The {University Of New South Wales} states that a supercomputer is any computer that can outperform IBM's current fastest, thus making it impossible for IBM to ever produce a supercomputer.
