It’s October 18^th 2025.  Happy Exascale day!

WASHINGTON—As we explore this era in advanced research and development (R&D) or modeling and simulation, exascale computing rapidly transforms our abilities to do just about anything with any connected or remote device on, in, or near our planet. 

Exascale systems and supercomputers are able to achieve over 1 quintillion operations per second. That’s 10 to the 18th power (10^18), or a “1” followed by 18 zeros. On National Exascale Day,  National BDPA, local BDPA Chapters, bdpatoday, and PTTV  celebrate  our 10^th month on its 18^th day.

Our Exascale Era has very profound impacts on all industry market segments from energy, health,  manufacturing, logistics, and supply chain management to all modes of transportation, infrastructure, new technologies and policy.

So how will these advanced technologies continue to work together with our villages and within your ‘hood?  How could more data from satellites, sensors, devices, and people, really work well atop newly secured platforms with compute at the edge, or new data centers in your region?  

To view what a few Industry insiders have to say, visit our Exascale Day playlist and check out the latest from HPE, one of National BDPA’s mission partners and #BDPA50 legacy High School Computer Competition (HSCC) coding sponsor, formerly as “EDS” and “HP”.
