    Fujitsu Laboratories mission is to drive the growth of the Fujitsu Group by continuously developing emerging technologies with global application aimed at addressing current and future social issues. With this aim in mind, Fujitsu Labs is researching and developing technologies ranging from advanced materials, next-generation devices, computers, networks, and information and communication technology (ICT) systems to the creation of next-generation solutions, new services, and novel business models.

    We are now entering an era where everything will be virtually connected and people, things, information, and services will be digitized for the creation and utilization of new values. The number of terminals connectable to internet will reach approximately 45 octillion (= 1027) per person for the current world population of 7.5 billion. We can say this number is almost infinite in real terms. Moreover, in this connected world, the values generated by ICT also have infinite possibilities.

    This explosive increase in the number of connections will raise a number of issues. Further advances in ICT are required. For example, we are facing the limits of complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) device miniaturization and network transmission capacity, which is currently 100 Tbps (=1014 bps). Data volume will increase exponentially to 1 yottabyte (=1024 bytes) by 2030, the level difficult to handle simply by improving existing technologies. Borderless security problems in cyber space will arise one after another along with the spread of the Internet of Things (IoT).

    To break through these difficult challenges, we have to develop new computing architectures, networks, cloud systems, data management systems, artificial intelligence (AI) and security technologies, and integrate all of them as a comprehensive ICT platform.

    Fujitsu is providing Connected Services for customers to expand their business and services through cross-industry collaboration, which can create new value cycles, and promoting Digital Co-creation.

    Therefore, Fujitsu Labs is also pushing the research and development of technologies to connect wisely, simply, and securely to achieve the Hyperconnected Cloud, which is the future Digital Co-creation Platform and our medium- to long-term vision. Fujitsu Labs has now reached the phase to materialize this vision and put it into practice. Moreover, we are promoting applied innovation research to create business models and services for rapidly implementing cutting-edge technologies in various fields that will contribute to the public happiness and help create a prosperous society. Fujitsu Labs is also conducting leading-edge basic research to solve the problems that require technologies that go beyond todays ICT and computing technologies. The important mission of Fujitsu Labs is to continue to explore research themes that produce impressive and amazing advancements.

    In the fall of 2018, Fujitsu Labs will celebrate its 50th anniversary. As a world leader in research and development, we have been generating numerous innovative technologies and contributing to individuals, societies, and businesses, and institutions. We will inherit this DNA of a researcher and keep growing. Along with the other 160,000 employees in the Fujitsu Group, we will drive forward Human Centric Innovation Digital Co-creation for the happiness of people all over the world.

    In order to incorporate digital technologies into the core part of business and to succeed in digital transformation that reforms total business structure of enterprises and industries, we have to fuse existing business and digital technologies and promote Digital Co-creation for co-creating new values with ecosystem partners and customers. On this co-creation platform, it is important to connect internal processes and external ecosystem partners services via application programming interface (API).

    In Knowledge Integration domain, we are pushing forward with the following R&Ds in preparation for evolution of connected services which is a precondition of Digital Co-creation: a new style

    assembly-type application development technology (API Compose) for mashup of internal and external services and data via API, a technology to utilize current applications (API Publish) by organizing functions and data which have been enhanced in the existing business systems for enabling them to be used from outside via API, agile development and continuous improvement of SoE (Systems of Engagement) that connect not only services but also people and things for generating new innovations. With these technologies, we will respond to the needs of customers who are aiming to achieve early digital transformation based on their current business.

    Now, we entered the era of Digital Co-Creation Business where all people, things and processes are connected with digital technology for co-creating new values by utilizing information obtained through these connections. On this co-creation platform, in order to offer the safe and secure business opportunities to our customer companies, who can be both service providers and service users, we have to improve not only the service providers values and convenience of service users but also the reliability of this common platform.

    In the research domain of Connected Business Platform, we are promoting R&D on various technologies to implement continuously evolvable cloud architecture and services by accumulating and utilizing Fujitsus own operational data, in

    addition to incorporating our customers diverse kinds of data concerning IoT, media, business, etc. Highly scalable data store and parallel processing technology enable us to accumulate a large amount of data and its high-speed use. So far, cloud services of IaaS and PaaS were said to be a black box, however, our technology to provide and control these services by using operational API made it possible for our customers to use cloud services according to the operation policy of their own systems. In the development of these software applications, we adopt various OSS and their development methods and system implementation methods for facilitating agile development and commercialization of these technologies.

    Massive amounts of various types of data

    In the world where people and all things ranging from information to services are connected and interlocked, massive amounts of various types of data is generated or scattered in multiple places and each piece of data has its different characteristics. In order to use these pieces of data freely as we like, it is important to simplify the data management and enable to process it flexibly. Therefore, ICT infrastructure and ICT platform across different clouds are required.

    In Hyperscale Data System domain, we are conducting R&D on technologies to provide ICT devices such as servers, storages, and networks with performance and functions required in various business fields in addition to SDx technologies to control them by software. Specifically, we are engaging in the development of

    low-latency communication technology to realize ultra-high-speed transaction processing based on supercomputer technology, and software-controlled SSD that can use flash memory efficiently according to the application requirements, and acceleration technology to offload the virtualized software network functions to hardware.

    Users of Hyperscale Data System can flexibly manage and utilize continuously increasing massive amount of data, and moreover, can use high-performance functions which were conventionally provided by dedicated devices. As a result, this system enables quick delivery or utilization of new services and drastic reduction of operation cost.

    In IoT era, as huge volumes of data is being generated continuously from a variety of sensors and devices, it is indispensable for us to process massive data at high speed. On the other hand, as we are almost reaching the limits of general servers performance improvement based on conventional semiconductor device miniaturization technology (the end of Moores Law), a new architecture or computing paradigm to process unceasingly increasing large amounts of data is required. FLL has long been presenting new computing architectures to the world and we are now promoting the following activities for the upcoming era.

    In Domain-specific/Next-generation computing field, we are proceeding with R&D of a next-generation architecture that can attain extremely high performance by specializing and optimizing

    its function in certain domain such as artificial intelligence, media processing, etc. which will become very important in the future, by using FPGA , GPU or dedicated processing devices. We are also challenging the R&D of a processor for Deep Learning that will speed up AI processing.

    As well as development of innovative architectures, we are also engaging in R&D of packaging technologies for highly integrated and power saving hardware, and technologies for efficient server control in datacenters.

    In Domain-specific/Next-generation computing, we will continue developing new architectures and hardware packaging technologies to meet growing demand for high-performance computing resources.

    For further acceleration of rapidly spreading digital transformation, in addition to digitizing the systems of each site, we have to connect them with broader business systems and services for realizing the world where various kinds of information on people and things are seamlessly circulated for new value creation. For achieving this connected world, in IoT Integration, we are focusing on R&D of the following two domains.

    Real world service platform is a cloud platform for realizing data distribution among diverse systems. For example, when retail and manufacturing systems are connected, if stock quantity of a certain product in retail stores becomes short, this information is sent to the relevant factory system to automatically start its production, or the actual operation data obtained from it can be used for optimization of whole production process in the factory. For realizing such a system, we are engaging in the development of a new cloud platform that can manage real world information

    digitized on a basis of a person, thing and site, and automate the data exchange and distribution via API.

    Field area network technology connects the real world service platform and on-site systems safely and securely. On actual sites, along with increased use of wireless communication devices such as Wi-Fi, BLE, LPWA, etc., various problems that hinder smooth communication are coming up such as interference caused by mixture of wireless communication systems with different standards, shielding or congestion due to environmental changes. Therefore, we are trying to develop a technology to connect on-site systems simply and securely through diversified wireless systems, by summarizing and instantaneously visualizing the wireless communication status of multiple systems with different communication standards, and detecting a fault and autonomously controlling the target system according to the status of a problem.

    In digital transformation era, it is required to connect people and things in the real world and services in the virtual world in a prompt manner to meet the requests of people and companies. However, we need to go through complicated procedures and spend much time to do so because it is necessary to connect many different types of networks such as field-area, enterprise on-premises, cloud, public, or private networks.

    One Network is a dynamic network that provides easy connections among people, things, and services using sensors or devices without network expertise, and it changes the connection according to the various demands. In order to realize One Network , we are engaged in the development of technologies to design, configure, and operate the entire network automatically or simply, as well as the technologies to hide the complexity of the network and isolate the target network resources for connecting

    them securely (orchestration/service connection).In wireless communications field where further broadband

    enhancement is required, we are proceeding with the development of the fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication systems, including high-capacity transmission that enables to connect 50 billion or more wireless devices simultaneously, or ultra-low-latency that enables automated driving. We also engage in the development of optical network technologies which are expected to address explosive traffic increase in everywhere, such as datacenters, 5G wireless communication networks, etc. in digital transformation era. The requirements for such optical networks are not only to realize ultra-high speed and high efficiency networking, but also to realize its smooth operation and management in heterogeneous open environment where many pieces of equipment from different vendors are mixed and used together.

    One Network is a dynamic network that provides easy connections among people, things, and services using sensors or devices without network expertise, and it changes the connection according to the various demands. In order to realize One Network , we are engaged in the development of technologies to design, configure, and operate the entire network automatically or simply, as well as the technologies to hide the complexity of the network and isolate the target network resources for connecting

    them securely (orchestration/service connection).In wireless communications field where further broadband

    enhancement is required, we are proceeding with the development of the fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication systems, including high-capacity transmission that enables to connect 50 billion or more wireless devices simultaneously, or ultra-low-latency that enables automated driving. We also engage in the development of optical network technologies which are expected to address explosive traffic increase in everywhere, such as datacenters, 5G wireless communication networks, etc. in digital transformation era. The requirements for such optical networks are not only to realize ultra-high speed and high efficiency networking, but also to realize its smooth operation and management in heterogeneous open environment where many pieces of equipment from different vendors are mixed and used together.
