Fujitsu demonstrates high performance simulations on Fastest Supercomputer, Fugaku

By OEM Update Editorial June 24, 2021 3:56 pm

Fujitsu has successfully demonstrated that large-scale, high-definition analysis can be performed with commercial applications widely used in the industrial space on the supercomputer Fugaku.

Fujitsu Limited successfully leveraged on one of the world’s fastest supercomputers, Fugaku, to demonstrate the feasibility of high performance, large-scale, very high-definition analyses with commercial applications, widely used in the industrial field for simulations including fluid dynamics. The trials were conducted in collaboration with a number of application vendors between November 2020 and May 2021. Fujitsu and the participating vendors have additionally collaborated to validate operations and conduct performance tuning for commercial applications in high demand with manufacturers for Fugaku as well as the Fujitsu Supercomputer PRIMEHPC series, which draws on technology developed for the Fugaku project. Application vendors have been beginning to offer these commercial applications starting in June 2021.

Verification and results of large-scale analysis using commercial applications:
In collaboration with various vendors, Fujitsu conducted a large-scale, high definition simulation for improving the energy efficiency and safety of aircraft and automobiles, which represents an increasingly important priority from the viewpoint of reducing environmental impact making use of commercial applications that have been tested for the PRIMEHPC series. Using the computing resources of Fugaku, Fujitsu conducted simulations with highly parallel processing, validating the feasibility of performing analyses within the amount of time required by companies for practical application in the real-world.
