|Large scaled, sophisticated, self-contained devices interconnected with a proprietary bus

|Between PC and mainframe, some devices are self-contained and directly interconnected while others rely on the central processor and system bus

|Large amounts of self-contained PCs interconnected with Ethernet or other networking standards e.g. InfiniBand

|Large amounts of computation nodes interconnected with a proprietary bus, while each node may or may not be self-contained

|Least concerned; programs are usually specifically built for specific supercomputer; sometimes supercomputers are even built for a specific task (e.g. Anton series)
