Quite simply, none. The IT sector of Bangladesh had its beginnings in nuclear research. The first computer was an IBM mainframe 1620, installed in 1964. Since then they mainly used IBM mainframes up until the introduction of personal computers in the late 1980s and the introduction of the internet in 1995. It is a growth industry, but there are no supercomputers in Bangladesh and no immediate plans to construct one.

Dr Lucy Bricheno of the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) used the ARCHER supercomputing national facility in the UK to model the Bangladesh delta in order to predict changes in tidal water level and salinity. This type of problem requires around a week of supercomputing time to process a years' worth of data.
