DescriptionIn this talk, we will discuss different aspects of the
path towards exascale from the perspective of the
Juelich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) in Germany. The
purpose for targeting next levels of performance is the
enablement of new science. We therefore understand
exascale as the ability to provide 2 orders more
performance for scientific applications compared to
today. This does not necessarily translates into a
corresponding scale-up of the throughput of
floating-point operations. We will look into the
application domains that play a key role for JSC in
future, analyze selected requirements and confront this
with current technology roadmaps.
