Explore the evolution of couplers—a key tool in multi-physics simulations—and their growing role in the age of AI and heterogeneous supercomputing. In this insightful talk, *Kengo Nakajima* of the University of Tokyo & RIKEN R-CCS, traces the history of coupler technologies and connects it to the broader challenge of *software sustainability* in advanced computing environments.
What you’ll learn:
* The original role of *couplers* in linking models like atmosphere-ocean or fluid-structure
* How workloads and hardware evolution have transformed coupler usage
* Highlights from three major projects:
1. *ppOpen-HPC (2011–2018)* – MPI-based multi-physics coupler
2. *h3-Open-BDEC (2019–2024)* – Integrating Simulation, Data, and Learning (S+D+L) on Wisteria/BDEC-01
3. *JHPC-quantum (2023–2028)* – Toward Quantum-HPC hybrid computing
This talk offers a unique perspective on the intersection of simulation, AI, and quantum computing—and how couplers are bridging them.
