  • Abstract
    Scientific frontiers--astrophysics, whole genome sequencing, tectonic modeling, and so on--demand faster and bigger computers to analyze an avalanche of data and advance our knowledge. A quest for answers to these grand scientific challenges is the main motivation behind developing and building exascale supercomputers and beyond.
