Uncovering the Hidden Mechanisms: Challenging Large-Scale Network Interpretation

Hello, this is Koji Maruhashi from the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. This article is the third in the GraphAI series. In the first post, we introduced methods for learning large-scale graphs with billions of nodes. In the second post, we explained how to make inherently black-box GraphAI explainable and interpretable. In this article, we will introduce our efforts on a further challenge: "uncovering the underlying phenomena of large-scale graphs."

SC25 Participation & Exhibition #4: FUJITSU-MONAKA & FugakuNEXT

Hello everyone. We are Yuya Edazawa, Yuma Muto, and Takuya Okamoto from Fujitsu’s Advanced Technology Development Division. We are working on the development of FUJITSU-MONAKA[^1] series, including the next-generation Arm processor FUJITSU-MONAKA, which will be the foundation of the future of cutting-edge domains such as AI, HPC, and cloud. In addition, in June 2025 we launched development of FugakuNEXT, the successor system to Fugaku. This project is currently being carried out jointly with RIKEN and NVIDIA.

To share these initiatives and their latest progress with the global community, we participated on-site in SC25, the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis (hereafter, SC25 | https://sc25.supercomputing.org/), held in St. Louis, USA from November 16 to 21, 2025.

In this article, we report on the exhibit content related to FUJITSU-MONAKA and FugakuNEXT, as well as the latest trends we observed through attending technical sessions and visiting other exhibitors’ booths.
