26 March 2012 Japan: Fujitsu Digitizes Sticky-Note Brainstorming with Proprietary Digital Pen Technology
Kawasaki, Japan, March 26, 2012 – Fujitsu Laboratories Limited today announced that it has developed an industry-first technology supporting the digitization of results from sticky-note brainstorming sessions by utilizing a digital pen. Sticky-note brainstorming is becoming an essential part of business analysis and idea generation, and is widely viewed as a necessary step in concept-building and the exchange of ideas within many enterprises and organizations. Until now, digitally recording the arrangement and content of sticky-notes for sharing and record-keeping had to be done manually, requiring photographs to be taken of groupings, which took up considerable man-hours. Now however, Fujitsu Laboratories has developed a technology that, by utilizing a digital pen in conjunction with proprietary image processing technology, supports the digitization of individual sticky-note placement and contents from captured images of groupings. This new technology will assist in recalling the brainstorming session and simplifying searches at a later date, boosting usefulness of those sessions, while successfully reducing man-hours by more than 80% compared with conventional manual methods.

13 March 2012 Japan: Fujitsu Develops New Distributed Processing Technology to Efficiently Collect Desired Data from Big Data Streams
Kawasaki, Japan, March 13, 2012 – Fujitsu Laboratories Limited today announced the world's first successful development of a distributed processing technology that efficiently collects enormous volumes of real-world data in the cloud through network-linked gateways. Services that collect and employ huge volumes of real-world data in the cloud—such as the location and health status of people and the status of different operations—are now expanding, and the increase in communications volumes associated with collecting this data poses a huge challenge. To address this problem, Fujitsu Laboratories has developed an algorithm that takes a portion of the data that would otherwise be processed in the cloud and instead performs optimized distributed arrangement in a gateway. Using this technology, it is possible to efficiently collect in the cloud only the data required from the big data streams being processed through the gateway, enabling a 99% reduction in transmission traffic volumes.
