Pune: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday launched three Param Rudra supercomputers along with high performance computing systems named Arka and Arunika. PM Modi said that technology should be improved in such a way that it empowers the poor and makes people's lives easier. He said that to achieve big achievements it is necessary to have a big vision. He described this day as a 'big achievement' in the field of science and technology. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that his government is determined that the benefits of research in technology should reach the common man.
He said, “Self-reliance in science is our aim. The government is giving priority to science, technology and research. We launched the National Supercomputing Mission in 2015 and now quantum computing technology has paved the way for information technology. This will help in improvement.” of manufacturing, MSME and startups.
Preparations for Mission Gaganyaan have started and by 2035 we will have our own space station in space. India is building its own semiconductor ecosystem that will be an important part of the global supply chain. The Prime Minister said supercomputers will ensure that even the smallest farmer has easy access to accurate knowledge of the world and will help them make informed decisions about crops. Seafaring fishermen will also benefit as these technologies will reduce risks and inform insurance schemes. By incorporating AI and machine learning, models can be created that will benefit all individuals. The Giant Meter Radio Telescope in Pune will be used to study astronomical phenomena using a supercomputer. Delhi's Inter University Accelerator Center will pave the way for development in areas like materials science and nuclear physics. The PM said that both the names Ark and Arunika are related to the Sun. High-performance computing systems worth Rs 850 crore designed for weather and climate research have been installed at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology in Pune and the National Center for Medium Range Weather Forecasting in Noida. They have extraordinary computing power. These systems will make forecasts related to cyclones, heavy rains, storms, hailstorms, heat waves, droughts and other critical weather events more accurate in the short term.
Five things related to Param Rudra supercomputer
