  1. Sonar (short for sound navigation and ranging) is a technique that uses sound propagation (usually underwater) to navigate, communicate or to detect other vessels.

    Satellites : Scientific research satellites provide us with meteorological information, land survey data (e.g., remote sensing), and other different scientific research applications such as earth science, marine science, and atmospheric research

    Supercomputers are used for highly calculation-intensive tasks such as problems involving quantum mechanical physics, weather forecasting, climate research (including research into global warming), molecular modeling (computing the structures and properties of chemical compounds, biological macromolecules, polymers, and crystals), physical simulations (such as simulation of airplanes in wind tunnels, simulation of the detonation of nuclear weapons, and research into nuclear fusion), cryptanalysis, and the like. Major universities, military agencies and scientific research laboratories are heavy users.

    A particular class of problems, known as Grand Challenge problems, are problems whose full solution requires semi-infinite computing resources.
