HPC - Definition and Overview |
|
|
The field of High Performance Computing (HPC) comprises computing applications on (parallel) supercomputers and computer clusters. Most ideas for the new wave of grid computing were originally borrowed from HPC.
Usually, computer systems in or above the teraflop-region are counted as HPC-computers.
