Post-K Computer Development Post-K Computer Development In collaboration with RIKEN, Fujitsu is developing the world’s top-level supercomputer, capable of realizing high effective performance for a broad range of application software. Advanced Technology Fujitsu Contributions to the Post-K Computer National Project Post-K Development ・System Characteristics We are aiming to achieve the development goals of having an effective application performance that is up to 100 times greater than that of the K computer and power consumption of 30-40 MW (the K computer’s power consumption is 12.7MW), and to create the world’s top-performing general-purpose supercomputer. To be more precise, our aim is to balance various factors, such as i) power consumption, ii) computational performance, iii) user convenience, and iv) ability to produce ground-breaking results, characterized by its all-around capabilities, compared to any other system in the world. ・Fujitsu’s Efforts Fujitsu, through efficient use of not only cutting-edge technology, but also the cultivation of know-how and performance experience with the K computer and the Supercomputer PRIMEHPC Series, is developing the entire system; from the processor to the software. In particular, in regards to the processor, Fujitsu chose the Arm instruction set architecture with supercomputing extensions co-created with Arm, and is working hard to extract the potential maximum performance from it. 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 K Computer K Computer Development Operation Basic Mass Install./ Prototype・Detailed Design Operation Post-K Design Product.

A given ISA may be implemented with different microarchitectures.[1] Implementations might vary due to different goals of a given design or due to shifts in technology.[2] Computer architecture is the combination of microarchitecture and instruction set design. Relation to instruction set architecture The ISA is roughly the same as the programming model of a processor as seen by an assembly language programmer or compiler writer. The ISA includes the execution model, processor registers, address and data formats among other things. The Intel Core microarchitecture microarchitecture includes the constituent parts of the processor and how these interconnect and interoperate to implement the ISA. The microarchitecture of a machine is usually represented as (more or less detailed) diagrams that describe the interconnections of the various microarchitectural elements of the machine, which may be everything from single gates and registers, to complete arithmetic logic units (ALU)s and even larger elements.

  • Toward Automated Cache Partitioning for the K Computer
    IPSJ SIG Technical Report Toward Automated Cache Partitioning for the K Computer Swann Perarnau1 Mitsuhisa Sato1,2 Abstract: The processor architecture available on the K computer (SPARC64VIIIfx) features an hardware cache par- titioning mechanism called sector cache. This facility enables software to split the memory cache in two independent sectors and to select which one will receive a line when it is retrieved from memory. Such control over the cache by an application enables significant performance optimization opportunities for memory intensive programs, that several studies on software-controlled cache partitioning environments already demonstrated. Most of these previous studies share the same implementation idea: the use of page coloring and an overriding of the operating system virtual memory manager. However, the sector cache differs in several key points over these imple- mentations, making the use of the existing analysis or optimization strategies impractical, while enabling new ones. For example, while most studies overlooked the issue of phase changes in an application because of the prohibitive cost of a repartitioning, the sector cache provides this feature without any costs, allowing multiple cache distribution strategies to alternate during an execution, providing the best allocation of the current locality pattern. Unfortunately, for most application programmers, this hardware cache partitioning facility is not easy to take advantage of. It requires intricate knowledge of the memory access patterns of a code and the ability to identify data structures that would benefit from being isolated in cache. This optimization process can be tedious, with multiple code modifications and countless application runs necessary to achieve a good optimization scheme.

  • World's Fastest Computer
    HISTORY OF FUJITSU LIMITED SUPERCOMPUTING “FUGAKU” – World’s Fastest Computer Birth of Fugaku Fujitsu has been developing supercomputer systems since 1977, equating to over 40 years of direct hands-on experience. Fujitsu determined to further expand its HPC thought leadership and technical prowess by entering into a dedicated partnership with Japan’s leading research institute, RIKEN, in 2006. This technology development partnership led to the creation of the “K Computer,” successfully released in 2011. The “K Computer” raised the bar for processing capabilities (over 10 PetaFLOPS) to successfully take on even larger and more complex challenges – consistent with Fujitsu’s corporate charter of tackling societal challenges, including global climate change and sustainability. Fujitsu and Riken continued their collaboration by setting aggressive new targets for HPC solutions to further extend the ability to solve complex challenges, including applications to deliver improved energy efficiency, better weather and environmental disaster prediction, and next generation manufacturing. Fugaku, another name for Mt. Fuji, was announced May 23, 2019. Achieving The Peak of Performance Fujitsu Ltd. And RIKEN partnered to design the next generation supercomputer with the goal of achieving Exascale performance to enable HPC and AI applications to address the challenges facing mankind in various scientific and social fields.

  • Overview of the K Computer System
    Overview of the K computer System Hiroyuki Miyazaki Yoshihiro Kusano Naoki Shinjou Fumiyoshi Shoji Mitsuo Yokokawa Tadashi Watanabe RIKEN and Fujitsu have been working together to develop the K computer, with the aim of beginning shared use by the fall of 2012, as a part of the High-Performance Computing Infrastructure (HPCI) initiative led by Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). Since the K computer involves over 80 000 compute nodes, building it with lower power consumption and high reliability was important from the availability point of view. This paper describes the K computer system and the measures taken for reducing power consumption and achieving high reliability and high availability. It also presents the results of implementing those measures. 1. Introduction Technology (MEXT). As the name “Kei” in Fujitsu has been actively developing and Japanese implies, one objective of this project providing advanced supercomputers for over was to achieve a computing performance of 30 years since its development of the FACOM 1016 floating-point operations per second (10 230-75 APU—Japan’s first supercomputer—in PFLOPS). The K computer, moreover, was 1977 (Figure 1). As part of this effort, it has developed not just to achieve peak performance been developing its own hardware including in benchmark tests but also to ensure high original processors and software too and building effective performance in applications used in up its technical expertise in supercomputers actual research. Furthermore, to enable the along the way. entire system to be installed and operated at The sum total of this technical expertise one location, it was necessary to reduce power has been applied to developing a massively consumption and provide a level of reliability parallel computer system—the K computer1), note)i that could ensure the total operation of a large- —which has been ranked as the top performing scale system.
