    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monolithic_system

    An electronic hardware system, such as a multi-core processor, is called "monolithic" if its components are integrated together in a single integrated circuit.Note that such a system may consist of architecturally separate components – in a multi-core system, each core forms a separate component – as long as they are realized on a single die.

    HPE Frontier at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility is the world's first exascale supercomputer. Exascale computing refers to computing systems capable of calculating at least 10 18 IEEE 754 Double Precision (64-bit) operations (multiplications and/or additions) per second (exa FLOPS)"; [1] it is a measure of supercomputer performance.

  8. Monolithic kernel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monolithic_kernel

    The monolithic model differs from other architectures such as the microkernel [1] [2] in that it alone defines a high-level virtual interface over computer hardware. A set of primitives or system calls implement all operating system services such as process management , concurrency , and memory management .
