(U) This paper provides a general overview of current and future plans for the Advanced Simulation and Computing (ASC) Advanced Technology (AT) systems fielded by the New Mexico Alliance for Computing at Extreme Scale (ACES), a collaboration between Los Alamos Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories. Additionally, this paper touches on research of technology beyond traditional CMOS. The status of Trinity, ASCs first AT system, and Crossroads, anticipated to succeed Trinity as the third AT system in 2020 will be presented, along with initial performance studies of the Intel Knights Landing Xeon Phi processors, introduced on Trinity. The challenges and opportunities for our production simulation codes on AT systems will also be discussed. Trinity and Crossroads are a joint procurement by ACES and Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory as part of the Alliance for application Performance at EXtreme scale (APEX) http://apex.lanl.gov.
