The citation to the previous sentence (see https://www.dekennisvannu.nl/site/artikel/Rekenkracht-is-macht/5882 https://www.dekennisvannu.nl/site/artikel/Rekenkracht-is-mac...) discusses the use of supercomputers, but from Google's Dutch to English translation it's not clear if supercomputer is in contradistinction to the BOS system that controls the barrier, or if BOS was just a lesser type of supercomputer-class controller.
Here's more information on BOS: https://park.org/Netherlands/pavilions/techno/svk/engels/werking/index.html https://park.org/Netherlands/pavilions/techno/svk/engels/wer... https://park.org/Netherlands/pavilions/techno/svk/engels/werking/bosbes.html https://park.org/Netherlands/pavilions/techno/svk/engels/wer...
Here's a page describing BOS from the company that built it, though emphasizing it's reliability, not computational power: https://www.cgi-group.co.uk/en/media/case-study/intelligent-decision-and-support-system-control-flood-barrier https://www.cgi-group.co.uk/en/media/case-study/intelligent-...
