Cray supercomputersĮven though the term ‘Super Computing’ has been around since the late 1920s, it was only in the mid 1960s that the name ‘Supercomputer’ caught on in referring to very fast computers. We have the Cray 1 supercomputer, used used to simulate weather patterns and nuclear reactions, game consoles trying to render artificial virtual worlds, Silicon Graphics workstations used to view 3-D crystalline models, Analogue computers used to simulate real world actions like dampening springs in a suspension system to Transputer systems used for high resolution graphical modelling. The simulation gallery covers a wide range of systems but they all have one thing in common, they were all used to simulate something. ![]()
