Findings From Real Petascale Computer Systems and Fujitsus Challenges in Moving Towards Exascale Computing

SESSION: Novel and Future Architectures II

EVENT TYPE: Exhibitor Forums

TIME: 2:00PM - 2:30PM

Presenter(s):Toshiyuki Shimizu

ROOM:155-B

ABSTRACT:
Fujitsu offers a range of HPC solutions with the high-end PRIMEHPC FX10 supercomputer, the PRIMERGY x86 clusters and associated ecosystems. The presentation will highlight performance evaluations for the K computer and PRIMEHPC FX10, including details of the technologies implemented. The technologies include a SIMD extension for HPC applications (HPC-ACE), automatic parallelization support for multi-threaded execution (VISIMPACT), a direct network based on a 6D mesh/torus interconnect (Tofu), and hardware support for collective communication (via the Tofu & its dedicated algorithms). The evaluations confirm these features contribute to scalability, efficiency, and usability of application programs in a massively parallel execution environment. In addition, initial indications show that future platforms, which will have more processor cores with wider SIMD capability, will exhibit similar characteristics. Fujitsus recent activities and collaboration framework for technology development toward Exascale computing will also be introduced. This includes co-design of architecture and system software with selected applications.
