On May 17, 2006, for the first time in Nepal, Shakya's supercomputer with 16 nodes was demonstrated. This supercomputer worked on open source OS with OpenMosix and Oscar. The supercomputer utilized sixteen computers in a cluster. This computer is on display at High Tech Pioneer Pvt. Ltd, located at Kalikasthan, Dilli Bazar, Nepal.
The Blue Gene/P supercomputer "Intrepid" at Argonne National Laboratory (pictured 2007) runs 164,000 processor cores using normal data center air conditioning, grouped in 40 racks/cabinets connected by a high-speed 3D torus network.

Intel iPSC/860 32-node parallel computer front panel, while running the Tachyon parallel ray tracing engine.August 22, 1995. Intel announced the iPSC/860 in 1990. The iPSC/860 consisted of up to 128 processing elements connected in a hypercube, each element consisting of an Intel i860 at 40–50 MHz or Intel 80386 microprocessor. [20]
Share of processor families in TOP500 supercomputers by year [needs update]. As of June 2022, all supercomputers on TOP500 are 64-bit supercomputers, mostly based on CPUs with the x86-64 instruction set architecture, 384 of which are Intel EMT64-based and 101 of which are AMD AMD64-based, with the latter including the top eight supercomputers. 15 other supercomputers are all based on RISC ...
Aurora was first announced in 2015 and to be finished in 2018. It was expected to have a speed of 180 petaFLOPS [6] which would be around the speed of Summit. Aurora was meant to be the most powerful supercomputer at the time of its launch and to be built by Cray with Intel processors. Later, in 2017, Intel announced that Aurora would be ...
