Post-K Supercomputer with Fujitsu’s Original CPU, Powered by ARM ISA
Toshiyuki SHIMIZU , Vice President of the System Development Division, Next Generation Technical Computing Unit, FUJITSU

Abstract : Fujitsu has provided supercomputers for forty years by developing hardware and software characterized by high application performance and stable operation. Fujitsu delivered the K computer in 2011, won 1st place twice in the TOP500, debuted the PRIMEHPC FX10 in 2012 and the PRIMEHPC FX100 in 2015. For these high-end supercomputers, Fujitsu developed its proprietary CPU and interconnect. Fujitsu also produces x86 clusters for general purpose application usage and customer requirements.

RIKEN and Fujitsu are currently working on the development of the K computer’s successor, the “post-K”, as Japan’s national supercomputer development project. The post-K inherits the K computer system architecture whilst targeting up to 100 times higher application performance.

The post-K project selected a Fujitsu original CPU with ARMv8-A and SVE instruction set architecture to reach a wider set of applications and contribute to the development of the ARM ecosystem for HPC applications as well as to improve science and society.

Biography : Mr. Toshiyuki Shimizu is Vice President of the System Development Division, Next Generation Technical Computing Unit, at Fujitsu Limited. Mr. Shimizu started at Fujitsu Laboratories with the research and development of the AP1000 massively parallel supercomputer system, and he has been deeply and continuously involved in the development of scalar parallel supercomputers, large SMP enterprise servers, and x86 cluster systems. His primary research interest is in interconnect architecture, most recently culminating in the development of the “Tofu” interconnect for the K computer and PRIMEHPC series. Mr. Shimizu has led the development of Fujitsu’s high-end supercomputer PRIMEHPC series, and is now engaged in developing the architecture and technology for the Post-K supercomputer. Mr. Shimizu received his Masters of Computer Science degree from Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1988.
