With Fugaku Supercomputer Installed, RIKEN Takes On Coronavirus
Supercomputers are designed for a number of big jobs that can only be done by massively powerful machinery, and one of those jobs has been the modeling of chemical compounds and biological systems, often in concert to model diseases and to help find cures for them. …

To Exascale And (Maybe) Beyond!
The difference between “high performance computing” in the general way that many thousands of organizations run traditional simulation and modeling applications and the kind of exascale computing that is only now becoming a little more commonplace is like the difference between a single, two door coupe that goes 65 miles per hour (most of the time) and a fleet of bullet trains that can each hold over 1,300 people and move at more than 300 miles per hour, connecting a country or a continent. …

Japan Gets An LLM Compliments Of Fujitsu And RIKEN
Very few organizations have enough iron to train a large language model in a reasonably short amount of time, and that is why most will be grabbing pre-trained models and then retraining the parameters in the models with much smaller datasets that are important to them. …
