Supercomputers have a high level of computing performance compared to a normal purpose computer and its performance is measured in FLOPS (floating point operations per second). Great speed and great memory are the two requirements of a super computer. The performance is usually evaluated in petaflops (1 followed by 15 zeros). Memory is averaged around 250000 times of the usual computer.
