The Future of High-Performance Computing

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

We are witnessing several factors in computing that offers as much opportunities as challenges. We are witnessing the end of Moore's law, almost two decades after the death of Dennard's scaling. Exascale computing is within reach but the last few steps are the most difficult. For instance, what is the best programming model in the exascale era? How can we make progress toward higher performance without Moore's law? In this article, we discuss the future of high-performance computing in the post-Moore era from hardware and software perspectives. This article is a glimpse to the near future and raises many research questions.We are witnessing several factors in computing that offers as much opportunities as challenges.
