Supercomputers play an important role in the field of computational science, and are used for a wide range of computationally intensive tasks in various fields, including quantum mechanics, weather forecasting, climate research, oil and gas exploration, molecular modeling....
Supercomputers normally make use of customized compute units (called blades) which usually house multiple nodes (CPUs, GPUs). In the case of the Cray XK6, the most powerful blade in the world, each blade contains four nodes, and each node houses a 16-core AMD Opteron CPU and Nvidia Tesla GPU, and 16 or 32GB of RAM
