Title
Parallel computing: an Indian perspective
Abstract
The launch of the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) in August '88, marked the begining of high-performance computing in India. The charter of C-DAC is to design, develop and bring into commercial production, in a time-bound manner, state-of-the-art and internationally competitive parallel computers. Several compute-intensive applications in science and engineering are to be demonstrated on the C-DAC target machines. The third component of the project is spawning of advanced research. The paper summarises the progress realised in the C-DAC project and also presents briefly an overview of other notable research projects in parallel computing that are currently underway in various academic and research institutions, including those in the Indian computer industry. A future perspective in advanced computing, that has been proposed for implementation during 1990–95 period, is also sketched.
