Season 3, Episode 5 -- Beyond Exascale: Exploring Emerging Hardware

The exascale era in computing has arrived, and that brings up the question of what's next. We'll discuss some emerging processor technologies-- molecular storage and computing, quantum computing and neuromorphic chips—with an expert from each of those fields. Learn more about these technologies' strengths and challenges and how they might be incorporated into tomorrow's systems.  You'll meet: Luis Ceze, professor of computer science at the University of Washington and CEO of the AI startup OctoML. Bert de Jong, senior scientist and department head for computational sciences at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and deputy director of the Quantum Systems Accelerator.  Catherine (Katie) Schuman, is a neuromorphic computing researcher and an assistant professor of computer science at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
