The Earth Simulator in Yokohama was the world's fastest supercomputer in 2004, but 7 years later the K computer in Kobe became over 60 times faster.. Japan operates a number of centers for supercomputing which hold world records in speed, with the K computer being the world's fastest from June 2011 to June 2012, [1] [2] [3] and Fugaku holding the lead from June 2020 until June 2022.
The International Development of Computer Education (IDCE) is an effort by KCG's programs to expand computer education in various countries. It was commenced in 1988 by Yasuko Hasegawa and her daughter, Yu Hasegawa (a.k.a. Yu Hasegawa-Johnson) when three hundred fifty 8-bit personal computers were donated to Thailand’s secondary and upper level schools.
H-II Transfer Vehicle. Founded in 2003 through the merging of three aerospace organisations (Institute of Space and Astronautical Science, National Aerospace Laboratory, and the National Space Development Agency of Japan), the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) conducts space and planetary exploration, aviation research, and the development of various space technologies and satellites.
Fugaku (Japanese: 富岳) is a petascale supercomputer at the Riken Center for Computational Science in Kobe, Japan. It started development in 2014 as the successor to the K computer [4] and made its debut in 2020. It is named after an alternative name for Mount Fuji. [5]
This workshop became Kyoto Computer Gakuin (Kyoto School of Computer Science) in 1969. Japan was then entering a period of economic growth and recovery in the post-war period and computers were still rare at that time. Only a handful of organizations like major banks, university research centers and airline companies possessed computer technology.
Since then, Japanese research in computer music has largely been carried out for commercial purposes in popular music. [148] Computer graphics. Particularly well known iconic digital computer graphics images include Running Cola is Africa, [149] by Masao Komura and Koji Fujino, created at the Computer Technique Group, Japan, in 1967. [150]
The University of Electro-Communications (電気通信大学, Denki-Tsūshin Daigaku) is a national university in Chōfu, Tokyo, Japan. It specialises in the disciplines of computer science, the physical sciences, engineering and technology. It was founded in 1918 as the Technical Institute for Wireless-Communications. [2]
The university specializes in computer science education, both hardware and software, at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. It is known for its open access to computers; there is a 1:1 ratio of computers to students, and students have access to a computer 24 hours a day.
