Trends in Computation, Communication and Storage and the Consequences for Data-intensive Science

Abstract
The way we are doing science is changing: Data analysis and computation modeling became tightly coupled. Divergent technological trends for computer processors, storage and memory and communication systems showed to be a real challenge in performance of current computing systems. In this paper we analyze the trends that influence computer performance, point out the technical challenges and introduce our vision in developing a guideline to an optimum distribution of computer resources addressing primarily data transmission issues.
