Opportunities for CollaborationOpportunities for Collaboration
Ultrahigh-speed Networks
• 100’s Gigabytes/second• End-to-end performance guarantees• Quality-of-service• Advanced network monitoring and
reporting
• 10’s of teraflops of computing• 10’s of terabytes of memory• 100’s of petabytes of storage• 1,000’s of ft2 of floor space• Megawatts of power
Large-scale Computing Systems
