(2) Technology for Automatic Linkage, Utilization,
and Leverage of Massive and Diverse Individual
Data Sets Dispersed Worldwide
Linked Open Data (LOD), or data that is linked and merged with
other related information, is being more widely released glob-
ally. In partnership with the Ireland-based INSIGHT Centre for
Data Analytics, which has some of the best technology in the
field, as a world’s first, Fujitsu co-developed a platform that collects
and stores LOD, and allows for high-speed, single-batch search of
a multitude of interrelated information that exist as globally-
dispersed individual data sets. For example, using data publicly
released as LOD, such as basic corporate data (business sector,
number of employees, etc.), financial data (net sales, profits, and
so on), as well as share price, and other relevant data, the platform
enables instantaneous multifaceted analysis of corporate perfor-
mance. Fujitsu has released a free-of-charge cloud-based search
service for this LOD utilization platform. The platform will also
become an integrated part of Fujitsu’s data utilization business, to
realize new data amalgamation services in a variety of fields.

(3) Security Technology Essential for Secure and Safe
Data Utilization
Services of all kinds must have mechanisms in place to safeguard
privacy to permit the utilization of a variety of diverse data.
Fujitsu developed technology that enables high-speed statistical
processing and searching of such data while encrypted. This
breakthrough makes it possible to utilize with a greater sense of
security highly private data, such as DNA, and other biological
and medical personal data, and educational records. In biometric
authentication technology, Fujitsu developed technology that
allows for the generation of different types of authentication
data based on palm vein images, which can be varied for various
separate services. In the unlikely event that registered data is
leaked in one service, users can re-register with no impact on
other services, enabling uninterrupted use of services with peace
of mind.

(4) Technology for Realizing Continuous Optimiza-
tion through Dynamic Compositional Change of
ICT Infrastructure
The relentless rise in network-connected sensors and mobile
devices has triggered explosive growth in transmitted data
volume, resulting in an emerging issue as to how to address the
sharp increase in communications data traffic and the shift to
high-capacity servers. Fujitsu has developed distributed service
platform technology that, in response to changes in service
parameters, utilizes cloud-based processing and automatic
allocation of data chunks to intermediate servers on wide-area
networks. This optimal allocation reduces communications data
traffic to roughly 1/100th in size, allowing for dramatic improve-
ment in response time.
Additionally, through high-speed interconnection of pooled
CPUs, memory, and storage, as a world’s first, Fujitsu developed
technology that in approximately 10 minutes, can provide clients
with a server setup tailored to their needs. These achievements
will ultimately make it possible to efficiently utilize ICT resources
in response to application load.

(5) Platform Technology Supporting On-Site Product
Prototyping and Development
For higher performance in next-generation servers and super-
computers, Fujitsu developed clock distribution technology that
cuts power consumption by 20% in high-speed data communica-
tion circuits between CPUs. This technology will be applied to
interfaces between server boards, the building blocks of servers.
To further expand the range of fields of application for super-
computers, Fujitsu developed the world’s first commercial mag-
netic simulation software technology, that enables large-scale
micromagnetic simulations to analyze microstructures of mag-
netic materials, which had been difficult to achieve in the past.
This innovation has made it possible to analyze microstructures
of magnetic substances in ways not possible with earlier compu-
tational approaches.
