PARAM Rudra Supercomputers:
The Prime Minister of India virtually launched three Param Rudra Super Computing Systems and a High Performance Computing (HPC) system for weather and climate research.
- It is designed to tackle complex computational challenges across various scientific and engineering domains.
- Three Param Rudra supercomputers have been developed indigenously under the National Supercomputing Mission.
- They have been deployed at three key locations: Delhi, Pune and Kolkata.
- In Pune, the Giant Metre Radio Telescope (GMRT) will leverage the supercomputer to explore Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) and other astronomical phenomena.
- In Delhi, Inter University Accelerator Centre (IUAC) will enhance research in fields like material science and atomic physics.
- In Kolkata, S N Bose Centre will use supercomputing technology to drive advanced research in areas such as physics, cosmology, and earth sciences.
