"Clustering" is the method of linking several computers (or servers, usually) together to act as one. This way, at least for servers, it balances high-traffic loads, and prevents overloading.

Clustering is also leveraged for combined processing power. For example, you could use a cluster of machines to try and crack an encryption, therefore speeding up the process with extra processing power.
