What is Advancing Computing's Foundation of US Industry & Society about?

While past information technology (IT) advances have transformed society, future advances hold even greater promise. For example, we have only just begun to reap the changes from artificial intelligence (AI), especially machine learning (ML). Underlying IT's impact are the dramatic improvements in computer hardware, which deliver performance that unlock new capabilities. For example, recent successes in AI/ML required the synergy of improved algorithms and hardware architectures (e.g., general-purpose graphics processing units). However, unlike in the 20th Century and early 2000s, tomorrow's performance aspirations must be achieved without continued semiconductor scaling formerly provided by Moore's Law and Dennard Scaling. How will one deliver the next 100x improvement in capability at similar or less cost to enable great value? Can we make the next AI leap without 100x better hardware? This whitepaper argues for a multipronged effort to develop new computing approaches beyond Moore's Law to advance the foundation that computing provides to US industry, education, medicine, science, and government. This impact extends far beyond the IT industry itself, as IT is now central for pro
