Supercomputer has played its significant role in the development of science and technology. As we are moving forward into the exascale era, how to measure the performance of supercomputer is a crucial problem when concerning the system designs and programming models. Different benchmarks will give different conclusions. We introdce the three main ranking lists in supercomputing and their benchmarks, and analyze the current development and application perspective in different aspects.
