  • Abstract
    For next-generation radio telescopes such as the Square Kilometre Array, seemingly minor changes in scientific constraints can easily push computing requirements into the exascale domain. The authors propose a model for engineers and astronomers to understand these relations and make tradeoffs in future instrument designs.
