TOP500是高性能计算前沿信息的宝库。它被用于2008年DARPA Exascale技术报告中，以分离出架构和技术对高性能计算的影响，并为预测当前系统在未来几年内如何成熟奠定基础。两种特殊的架构被确定：“重量级”（基于高端商品微处理器）和“轻量级”（主要是BlueGene变体），并对性能，并发性，内存容量和功率进行了预测。本文更新了这些预测，并将第三类“异构”架构（利用新兴的类GPU芯片）添加到组合中。
The TOP500 is a treasure trove of information on the leading edge of high performance computing. It was used in the 2008 DARPA Exascale technology report to isolate out the effects of architecture and technology on high performance computing, and lay the groundwork to project how current systems might mature through the coming years. Two particular classes of architectures were identified: "heavyweight" (based on high end commodity microprocessors) and "lightweight," (primarily BlueGene variants), and projections made on performance, concurrency, memory capacity, and power. This paper updates those projections, and adds a third class of "heterogeneous" architectures (leveraging the emerging class of GPU-like chips) to the mix.
