CREST Team Sweeps the Ranks: GreenGraph500
Under the JST (Japan Science and Technology Agency) CREST project, “Advanced Computing and Optimization Infrastructure for Extremely Large-Scale Graphs on Post Peta-Scale Supercomputers,” Fujisawa Katsuki, Professor, Faculty of Science and Engineering and his research team are planning and developing an optimization system for extremely large-scale graphs* targeted to execute on next generation supercomputers.
On June 18, 2013, the ISC (International Supercomputing Conference) announced the team won the Small Data Category of the Green Graph500 List, which maintains a list of the most energy efficient systems for data intensive computing. Fujisawa’s CREST team sweeped the ranks from 1st to 5th place and 7th to 12th place.
*Graph: Spider web-like data structure consisting of finite set of ordered pairs, called edges, of certain entities called vertices
This research project is operated by “Advanced Computing and Optimization Infrastructure for Extremely Large-Scale Graphs Unit” of the Center for Research and Development Initiatives.
