Abstract
In this paper we describe the current and upcoming trends, challenges and opportunities
in High Performance Computing. We discuss the end of Moore’s law, its effect
on HPC architectures and the already visible and potential implications on hardware
development. As a result of this the focus of attention will shift from hardware to
software and algorithms. This will cover programming models, power efficiency as
well as mathematical models. The impact of data on HPC is another important point.
We analyse the influence of different big data and data analytics fields and show how
they might change High Performance Computing in future.
