Without a doubt, computing has made great strides in recent years. But as much as it has advanced in the last 10 years, in the coming decade, the emergence and migration of new workloads and usage models to mainstream computing will put enormous demands on future computing platforms: demands for much higher performance, much lower power density and greatly expanded functionality.

Given these seismic shifts in the uses of computing, how we define and architect future computing platforms will have to change dramatically, holistically comprehending and satisfying not only computation, but interface and infrastructure requirements as well.
