Abstract: Abstract There is a serious misunderstanding in the market regarding terms which characterize high-performance computing, parallel computing, supercomputing and high-end mainframes. Much of this mixup has been created by the vendors’ own claims; another part is due to the lack of a standard terminology; still another to the missing link of appropriate software.
