Research summary
The High-Performance Big Data Research Team at the RIKEN Center for Computational Science has be developing system software for the advancement of high-performance computers such as the Fugaku supercomputer. In particular, we aim to integrate high performance computing (HPC), big data (Big Data), and artificial intelligence (AI). To achieve this goal, we are researching and developing fundamental technologies that are universally required for the advancement of high-performance computing. Especially, we develop system software for accelerating big data processing and AI training & inference (i.e., HPC for Big Data/AI) while we also make use of big data and AI technologies for the advancement of high-performance computing (i.e., Big Data/AI for HPC). We also study technologies for designing future high-performance computers. Specifically, we are developing technologies for scalable parallel I/O, scalable machine learning and deep learning using hierarchical memory storage technology, utilizing non-volatile memory, scalable and efficient fault-tolerant technology, efficient data compression and transfer on high-speed networks, and advanced programming environments. We also explore architectures to develop the next generation of large-scale systems. We are actively collaborating with researchers from domestic and foreign companies, universities, and national laboratories to establish a high-performance big data processing infrastructure.
