'''Convex Computer Corporation''' was a company that developed, manufactured and marketed [[Vector processor|vector]] [[minisupercomputer]]s and [[supercomputer]]s for small-to-medium-sized businesses. Their later '''Exemplar''' series of [[parallel computing]] machines were based on the [[Hewlett-Packard]] (HP) [[PA-RISC]] [[microprocessor]]s, and in 1995, HP bought the company. Exemplar machines were offered for sale by HP for some time, and Exemplar technology was used in HP's '''V-Class''' machines.
