Based on the PARAM series of supercomputers, he built the National Param Supercomputing Facility (NPSF) which is now made available as a grid computing facility through the Garuda grid on the National Knowledge Network (NKN) providing nationwide access to High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructure. Currently, Bhatkar is working on exascale ...
[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.
Pratyush and Mihir are the supercomputers established at Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Pune and National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecast (NCMRWF), Noida respectively. As of January 2018, Pratyush and Mihir are the fastest supercomputer in India with a maximum speed of 6.8 PetaFlops at a total cost of INR 438.9 Crore. [2]
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 ...
It also does not include not a new idea, indigenous alternatives, low-cost alternatives, technologies or discoveries developed elsewhere and later invented separately in India, nor inventions by Indian emigres or Indian diaspora in other places. Changes in minor concepts of design or style and artistic innovations do not appear in the lists.
[11] [12] With performance of up to three megaFLOPS, [13] [14] it was dubbed a supercomputer and defined the supercomputing market when two hundred computers were sold at $9 million each. [9] [15] The 6600 gained speed by "farming out" work to peripheral computing elements, freeing the CPU (Central Processing Unit) to process actual data.
Now, scientists in India are dismissing Einstein’s theories. (AP Photo) Speakers at a major conference in India have been slammed for making “irrational claims” including that ancient Hindus ...
Raju was a key contributor to the first Indian supercomputer, PARAM (1988–91), [2] Raju has also engaged in historical research, most notably claiming that the Jesuits transmitted infinitesimal calculus to Europe from India. [4] [5] [6] It was possible, but no trace of it has yet been found.
