Abstract
We have been carrying out the FLAGSHIP 2020 to develop the Japanese next-generation flagship supercomputer, Post-K, named as “Fugaku” recently. In the project, we have designed a new Arm-SVE enabled processor, called A64FX, as well as the system including interconnect with the industry partner, Fujitsu. The processor is designed for energy-efficiency and sustained application performance. In the design of the system, the “co-design” with the system and applications is a key to make it efficient and high-performance. We analyzed a set of the target applications provided from applications teams for the design of the processor architecture and the decision of many architectural parameters. The “Fugaku” is being installed and scheduled to be put into operation for public service around 2021. In this talk, several features and some preliminary performance results of the “Fugaku” system and A64FX manycore processor will be presented as well as the overview of the system.
