Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1562218· OSTI ID:1562218

The next two Advanced Technology platforms for the ASC program will feature complex memory hierarchies – in the Trinity supercomputer being deployed in 2016, Intel’s Knights Landing processors will feature 16GB of on-package, high-bandwidth memory, combined with a larger capacity DDR4 memory and in 2018, the Sierra machine deployed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory will feature powerful compute nodes containing POWER9 processors with large capacity memories and an array of coherent GPU accelerators also with high bandwidth memories.
