Hello! I’m Koda, a D1 student.
At the ongoing SCA/HPCAsia 2026 conference, the award ceremony for the 2025 APAC HPC/AI Competition was held. Team To(Hoku)^2_w/R, consisting of Koda and Shubham from the Takizawa Lab and Yuya Kudo from Hokkaido University, received the “Certificate of Participation and Excellence”!
Our team tackled the HPC task of accelerating NWChem. We worked on the acceleration from July to September and presented the acceleration results in October.
At the awards ceremony, we discussed the specifics of the acceleration with students from the winning team. While our approach was similar, we didn’t place among the top winners, but we achieved a satisfying result!
