Abstract
In October, 2016, the US Department of Energy launched the Exascale Computing Project, which aims to deploy exascale computing resources for science and engineering in the early 2020’s. The project brings together application teams, software developers, and hardware vendors in order to realize this goal. Lattice QCD is one of the applications. Members of the US lattice gauge theory community with significant collaborators abroad are developing algorithms and software for exascale lattice QCD calculations. We give a short description of the project, our activities, and our plans.

IntroductionThese must be improved in a manner consistent with increased computational rates and data-movement requirements
The Exascale Computing Project (ECP) is a joint undertaking by the US Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC) and the US National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) [1]
The ECP is headed by Paul Messina (Argonne Leadership Computing Facility)1 and managed through Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Summary
These must be improved in a manner consistent with increased computational rates and data-movement requirements. It must be meaningful to the mix of applications that are expected to need computing at that scale With a facility on the scale of a “leadership computing facility” (such as the Argonne and Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facilities) it should deliver 50 times the performance of today’s 20 Petaflop systems for a wide range of applications. This criterion is spelled out further below. It should includes a software stack that supports a broad spectrum of applications and workloads
