  • Abstract
    Building, integrating and using petascale systems have many challenges including system power and cooling, system stability, scalablity, simulation environment and the development of petascale applications. In this talk, we discuss these challenges and provide some approaches to addressing these challenges. In addition, we discuss some recent scientific results from petascale systems that make the whole effort worthwhile.
