In 1987, the Indian government had requested to purchase a Cray X-MP supercomputer; this request was denied by the United States government as the machine could have a dual use in weapons development. [7] After this problem, in the same year, the Government of India decided to promote an indigenous supercomputer development programme.
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 CDC 6600, released in 1964, is generally considered the first supercomputer. [2] [3] However, some earlier computers were considered supercomputers for their day such as the 1954 IBM NORC in the 1950s, [4] and in the early 1960s, the UNIVAC LARC (1960), [5] the IBM 7030 Stretch (1962), [6] and the Manchester Atlas (1962), all [specify] of ...
