ABSTRACT:
Today's largest HPC systems are dominated by CPUs based on two different instruction sets from three vendors. These processors have traditionally been designed for the highest single thread performance, but suffer from high power demands. What would it take for an entirely new processor to be competitive and acceptable to the HPC community? We explore both hardware and software aspects of that question, looking specifically at ARM processors from performance, functionality, and cost perspectives, and the special demands and freedom in the HPC space that affect the answers.
