The Exascale Computing Project

The US Department of Energy's (DOE) Exascale Computing Project is a partnership between the DOE Office of Science and the National Nuclear Security Administration. Its mission is to transform today's high-performance computing (HPC) ecosystem by executing a multifaceted plan: developing mission-critical applications of unprecedented complexity; supporting US national security initiatives; partnering with the US HPC industry to develop exascale computer architectures; collaborating with US software vendors to develop a software stack that is both exascale-capable and usable on US industrial- and academic-scale systems; and training the next-generation workforce of computer and computational scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and data scientists.
