The document discusses the challenges facing exascale computing and NVIDIA's vision for the path to achieving exascale. It summarizes that CPU-only architectures will not be sufficient to reach exascale due to power limitations. GPU computing provides a path to exascale by utilizing many simple, power-efficient processors to reduce data movement costs. NVIDIA predicts the first exascale system in 2023 will utilize a GPU-accelerated architecture to achieve 1 exaflops within a 20 megawatt power budget.
