The Future Technologies performs research in core technologies for future generations of high-end computing architectures, including prototype computer architectures and experimental software systems. We investigate these technologies with the goal of improving the performance, energy efficiency, reliability, and productivity of these architectures for our sponsors. Frequently, we work closely with applications teams to co-design new algorithm implementations and develop performance predictions to exploit these technologies effectively.
