The speed of the storage device has long lagged behind the computation speed of processors.As a result, the I/O performance of storage systems in a supercomputer fails to keep up with its computational power.
This gap continues to widen in modern supercomputers.
On future exascale supercomputers, this issue can worsen...

Power and energy are becoming the limiting factors for computer designs and systems, and energy efficient functional units are getting more popular in such systems. Some of the design methodologies that are getting more common include voltage overscaling and employing imprecise instructions. These functional units need to be characterized correctly...
