Super computers are mainly useful for

  • A.Mathematical intensive scientific applications
  • B.Data-retrieval operations
  • C.Input-output intensive processing
  • D.All of the above

Answer: A

Correct answer: Mathematical intensive scientific applications

Supercomputers are built for problems that need vast numbers of arithmetic operations - weather modelling, molecular simulation, nuclear physics. Data retrieval and heavy input-output are the work of mainframes, which are designed for throughput of transactions rather than for raw floating-point speed.
