Research Summary

Toshiyuki  Imamura(Ph.D.)

The Large-scale Parallel Numerical Computing Technology Research Team conducts research and development of a large scale, highly parallel and high-performance numerical software library for the supercomputer Fugaku. Simulation programs require various numerical algorithms for the solution of linear systems, eigenvalue problems, fast Fourier transforms, and non-linear equations. In order to take advantage of the full potential of Fugaku, we must select algorithms and develop a numerical software library based on the concepts of high parallelism, high performance, high precision, resiliency, and scalability. We achieve this through close collaboration among computational science (simulation), computer science (hardware and software) and numerical mathematics. Our goal is to establish a fundamental technique to develop numerical software libraries, called KMATHLIB, for next generation supercomputer systems based on strong cooperation within R-CCS.
