abstract = {Cluster computers are dominating high-performance computing
(HPC) today. The success of this architecture is based on
the fact that it profits from the improvements provided by
mainstream computing well known under the label of Moore's
law. But trying to get to Exascale within this decade might
require additional endeavors beyond surfing this technology
wave. In order to find possible directions for the future we
review Amdahl's and Gustafson's thoughts on scalability.
Based on this analysis we propose an advanced architecture
combining a Cluster with a so-called Booster element
comprising of accelerators interconnected by a
high-performance fabric. We argue that this architecture
provides significant advantages compared to today's
accelerated clusters and might pave the way for clusters
into the era of Exascale computing. The DEEP project is
implementing this concept. Six applications from fields
having the potential to exploit Exascale systems are being
ported to DEEP. We analyze one application in detail and
explore the consequences of the constraints of the DEEP
systems on its scalability.},
