High performance computing and real-time systems

From a foreword by Jack Dongarra to [M14]:

High-performance computing (HPC) most generally refers to the practice of aggregating computing power in a way that delivers much higher performance than one could get out of a typical desktop computer or workstation in order to solve large problems in science, engineering, or business.

From [L04]:

The time between the presentation of a set of inputs to a system (stimulus) and the realization of the required behavio[u]r (response), including the availability of all associated outputs, is called the response time of the system. A real-time system is a system that must satisfy explicit (bounded) response-time constraints or risk severe consequences, including failure.
