Well, you are discounting CUDA, which has been seen as suited for many tasks when compared to MPI. Of course, you can use MPI and CUDA together (people are working on that), which you then have messaging between nodes and shared memory (via GPU-style SIMD) within.

Of course, you are probably referring to NUMA, but people still actually use that.

Pure OO isn't very much desired in the HPC world, but then neither is pure FP.
