Hello! This is Koda, a second-year master’s student.

I attended SC24, which was held in Atlanta from November 17 to 22!
SC24 is the largest international conference in the HPC industry, with 17,500 participants and over 500 organizations joining this year.

From our lab, Professor Takizawa, Shubham, and I participated in the conference.
Professor Takizawa gave a presentation titled “ExpressHPC: Towards ‘Connected Supercomputing’ Enabling On-Demand Job Execution for Disaster Resilience” at the Fourth Combined Workshop on Interactive and Urgent HPC.

Additionally, the students collaborated with members from other research labs at Tohoku University to set up an exhibition booth. At the booth, we introduced Tohoku University’s supercomputer systems and presented our research.

There were many presentations and exhibitions that were relevant to my research, making it a very valuable experience. Next year, I hope to present at a workshop, so I will continue to work hard on both my research and my English skills!

Hello! I’m Koda, a second-year master’s student.

We recently held an Imoni party!

It was drizzling that day, so we struggled to get the fire going, but with everyone’s cooperation, we managed to cook a delicious Imoni!
We also had a great time interacting with the new members who joined Takizawa Lab in October, making it a fun and memorable event!

Hello, I’m Imai, a fourth-year undergraduate student.
Recently, I was able to celebrate my and Nomura’s (also a fourth-year student) entrance exam success over a meal.
We had a great time talking about various topics, regardless of our year. It was a really enjoyable event.
As my research is about to begin in earnest, I am determined to stay focused and give it my all.

Hello, my name is Shubham, an M2 student.
I recently completed my master’s thesis final defense, focusing on the SX-Aurora TSUBASA system.
The defense was challenging but rewarding, as it allowed me to present my research findings and receive valuable feedback from the panel.
I am pleased to announce that I successfully defended my thesis and submitted it by the deadline. I am grateful to my professors and colleagues for their guidance and support throughout this journey.
I will continue to refine my work based on the comments received and look forward to contributing further to this field.

Hello, this is Tanizawa, M1 student.

SWoPP (Summer United Workshops on Parallel, Distributed and Cooperative Processing) was held at Awagin Hall (Tokushima Prefecture Local Culture Hall) in Tokushima Prefecture from 8/7-8/9. Many workshops were held, including the Workshop xSIG (Cross-disciplinary Workshop on Computing Systems, Infrastructures, and Programming) of the Information Processing Society of Japan, the HPC workshop, and the OS workshop.

From our laboratory, M1 students Katayama, Yanai, and Tanizawa presented the following papers at xSIG 2024 and the 195th HPC Workshop held at SWoPP 2024, respectively.

片山 敏伸, 高橋 慧智, 下村 陽一, 滝沢 寛之, “説明可能AI技術によるプログラムの性能モデルの解析”, xSIG 2024, 2024年8月．

柳井 快斗, 高橋 慧智, 下村 陽一, 滝沢 寛之, “タスク間の依存関係を考慮したワークフローのバッチジョブスケジューリング”, xSIG 2024, 2024年8月．

谷澤 悠太, 高橋 慧智, 下村 陽一, 滝沢 寛之, “HPCシステム用ウェブポータルにおけるジョブスケジューラの抽象化”, 研究報告ハイパフォーマンスコンピューティング (HPC), 2023-HPC-195 (9), pp. 1-9, 2024年8月.

Katayama’s presentation received the IEEE Computer Society Japan Chapter xSIG Young Researcher Award, and Yanai’s presentation received the Best Undergraduate Student Award. I would like to follow the example of my two classmates and continue to work hard in my research activities.
