Exascale computing refers to computing systems capable of performing at least one exaflop, which is equivalent to \\(10^\{18\}\\) (one quintillion) floating-point operations per second (FLOPS). This level of performance represents a significant leap beyond current supercomputers, which typically operate in the petascale range (around \\(10^\{15\}\\) FLOPS).
