Welcome three new B3 students to become a member of our lab!
An online party was held. It seems like hosting an online party is increasingly becoming a new way during the Covid-19 outbreak.
B3 students introduced themselves at first.
Students played games together.
Everyone enjoyed the party and had a great time.
We hope to have a long and successful journey together.
The Fifteenth International Workshop on Automatic Performance Tuning (iWAPT2020) was held from 18th to 22nd May. Two students participated and presented their work. Their topics are as follows:
– Task Priority Control for the HPX Runtime System
Authors: Suhang Jiang, Mulya Agung, Ryusuke Egawa and Hiroyuki Takizawa (Tohoku University)
– Automatically Avoiding Memory Access Conflicts on SX-Aurora TSUBASA
Authors: Naoki Ebata, Ryusuke Egawa, Yoko Isobe (Tohoku University), Ryoji Takaki (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) and Hiroyuki Takizawa (Tohoku University)
Because of the COVID-19, the iWAPT2020 was held in online discussion forum. If you want to view the presentation video with slide, please check the details at the following website:

Finally, the academic year 2020 has begun!
Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, we cannot hold the kickoff party as usual.
Thus, an online drinking party was held.
More than expected, 13 people in total participated in the drinking party!
Despite the remote participation, we enjoyed delicious dishes and drinks and got excited.
On the other hand, because it’s remote and easy to participate, there was someone participated with his bed hair (lol)
I know things must be so tough these days due to the COVID-19.
That’s why we should keep healthy, and have a positive attitude towards the new academic year!
Due to the coronavirus, the graduation ceremony of Tohoku University was canceled. Instead, a small one was held in our lab.

On 27th Oct, the yearly imoni party was held with Kobayashi Lab. together. This year, in total, around 40 students attended, as well as professors with their families.
4th-year-undergraduate students were the leading members to prepare this party, from burning the fire to cooking. A lot of foods, including imoni-pot and yakitori were made.
All students and professors had a great chance of chatting with each other.
