  • Abstract
    Multiple innovations will be required to navigate the challenging road to developing exascale systems. The stage is set for a global race to design and build the first exascale system within a 20-megawatt (MW) power envelope. Perhaps not since the race to the moon have we seen a worldwide competition of this scale and complexity.
