We describe the characteristics of several recent computers that employ vectorization or parallelism to achieve high performance in floating-point calculations. We consider both top-of-the-range supercomputers and computers based on readily available and inexpensive basic units. In each case we discuss the architectural base, novel features, performance, and cost. We intend to update this report regularly, and to this end we welcome comments.
