The lab researches computing infrastructure centered on supercomputers.
AboutAbout the lab
Pursuing the computing infrastructure that supports academia and industry.
The Date Lab researches computing infrastructure and data infrastructure centered on supercomputing, as well as the applications built on them.
The lab advances its research and development by drawing on its experience building and operating the D3 Center's supercomputing system, large-scale visualization system, and data infrastructure.
It is a lab that studies the infrastructure needed for large-scale computation, such as AI development and numerical simulation.
As a cooperating chair of the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology and the School of Engineering, the lab also works to develop people who will lead and pioneer this field.
