“…This report was prepared as part of the XGC LDRD project at Sandia National Labs, as part of a yearly update to projections first prepared for the 2008 DARPA Exascale report [16] and then updated for SC 2011 [15] and ISC 2012 [14]. The goal is to predict the potential characteristics of high-end systems across a spectrum of architectures into the future, and with enough lower level characteristics to allow non-trivial extrapolations against future benchmarks.…”

The HPC architectures of today are significantly different for a decade ago, with high odds that further changes will occur on the road to Exascale. This paper discusses the "perfect storm" in technology that produced this change, the classes of architectures we are dealing with, and probable trends in how they will evolve. These properties and trends are then evaluated in terms of what it likely means to future Exascale systems and applications. 3This page intentionally left blank.

“…As the device dimensions such as gate oxide thickness reduce to several atomic layers, tunneling and leakage current become significant. The Inter- 4 Growth in socket and core count [6]. national Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) [7] refers to this as a 'red brick wall' as there is no known technology solution beyond 2016 when CMOS scaling is expected to stop (note that CMOS power density scaling already stopped in 2004).…”

SUMMARYThis paper covers new architectures, technologies, and performance benchmarking together with prospects for high productivity and high performance computing enabled by photonics. The exponential and sustained increases in computing and data center needs are driving the demands for exascale computing in the future. Power-efficient and parallel computing with balanced system design is essential for reaching that goal as should support ∼billion total concurrencies and ∼billion core interconnections with ∼exabyte/second bisection bandwidth. Photonic interconnects offer a disruptive technology solution that fundamentally changes the computing architectural design considerations. Optics provide ultrahigh throughput, massive parallelism, minimal access latencies, and low power dissipation that remains independent of capacity and distance. In addition to the energy efficiency and many of the fundamental physical problems, optics will bring high productivity computing where programmers can ignore locality between billions of processors and memory where data resides. Repeaterless interconnection links across the entire computing system and all-to-all massively parallel interconnection switch will significantly transform not only the hardware aspects of computing but the way people program and harness the computing capability. This impacts programmability and productivity of computing. Benchmarking and optimization of the configuration of the computing system is very important. Practical and scalable deployment of photonic interconnected computing systems are likely to be aided by emergence of athermal silicon photonics and hybrid integration technologies.
