A fundamental driver of advances in  computing and ICT has been the fact that the single-processor performance has,  until recently, been steadily and dramatically increasing year over years,  based on a combination of architectural techniques, semiconductor advances, and  software improvements. Users, developers, and innovators were able to depend on  those increases, translating that performance into numerous technological  innovations and creating successive generations of ever more rich and diverse  products, software services, and applications that had profound effects across  all sectors of society. However, we can no longer depend on those extraordinary  advances in single-processor performance continuing. This slowdown in the  growth of single-processor computing performance has its roots in fundamental  physics and engineering constraints&#8211;multiple technological barriers have converged  to pose deep research challenges, and the consequences of this shift are deep  and profound for computing and for the sectors of the economy that depend on  and assume, implicitly or explicitly, ever-increasing performance. From a  technology standpoint, these challenges have led to heterogeneous multicore  chips and a shift to alternate innovation axes that include, but are not  limited to, improving chip performance, mobile devices, and cloud services. As  these technical shifts reshape the computing industry, with global  consequences, the United States must be prepared to exploit new opportunities  and to deal with technical challenges. <em>The New Global Ecosystem in Advanced Computing:  Implications for U.S. Competitiveness and National Security<\/em> outlines the technical challenges, describe the global  research landscape, and explore implications for competition and national  security.<\/p>\n<p>[<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nap.edu\/catalog.php?record_id=13472\">Read the full report<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Topics:<\/strong> <a href='http:\/\/www.nap.edu\/topics.php?id=279'><\/a> | <a href='http:\/\/www.nap.edu\/topics.php?id=289'><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/nap\/new\/~4\/4JUBBbXVP_o\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Final Book Now Available Computing and information and communications technology (ICT) has dramatically changed how we work and live, has had profound effects on nearly every sector of society, has transformed whole industries, and is a key component of U.S. global leadership.
