He is a Padma Shri, [3] Padma Bhushan, [4] and Maharashtra Bhushan [5] awardee. Indian computer magazine Dataquest placed him among the pioneers of India's IT industry. He was the founder and executive director of Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) and is currently working on developing exascale supercomputing for India.
[8] [10] [9] C-DAC was given an initial 3 year budget of Rs 375 million to create a 1000MFLOPS (1GFLOPS) supercomputer by 1991. [10] C-DAC unveiled the PARAM 8000 supercomputer in 1991. [1] This was followed by the PARAM 8600 in 1992/1993. [10] [9] These machines demonstrated Indian technological prowess to the world and led to export success.
[note 1] It is the first multi-PetaFlops supercomputer ever built in India. [4] Pratyush and Mihir are two High Performance Computing (HPC) units. They are located at two government institutes, one being 4.0 PetaFlops unit at IITM, Pune and another 2.8 PetaFlops unit at the National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting (NCMRWF), Noida ...
[4] BARC has started development of supercomputers under the ANUPAM project in 1991 and till date, has developed more than 20 different computer systems. All ANUPAM systems have employed parallel processing as the underlying philosophy and MIMD (Multiple Instruction Multiple Data) as the core architecture. BARC, being a multidisciplinary ...
The Indian jute industry, in turn, was modernised during the British Raj in India. [3] The region of Bengal was the major centre for Jute cultivation, and remained so before the modernisation of India's jute industry in 1855, when Kolkata became a centre for jute processing in India. [3]
The project was given an initial run of three years and an initial funding of ₹ 30,00,00,000, the cost of a Cray supercomputer. [7] A prototype computer was benchmarked at the 1990 Zurich Super-computing Show. It demonstrated that India had the second most powerful, publicly demonstrated, supercomputer in the world after the United States. [7 ...
The 106th Indian Science Congress, which was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, runs until January 7. The head of a southern Indian university cited an old Hindu text as proof that stem ...
