Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday, September 26 inaugurated three Param Rudra supercomputers and high performance computing systems for weather and climate research. PM Modi did this inauguration through video conferencing. Not only this, PM Modi announced a research fund of Rs 1 lakh crore in this year's budget.
According to news agency ANI, PM Narendra Modi said that our scientists and engineers have built 3 Param Rudra supercomputers. These 3 supercomputers have been installed in Delhi, Pune and Kolkata. Today, 2 high performance computing systems named 'Arka and Arunik' have also been inaugurated for the country.
He said that the three supercomputers that have been launched will help in advanced research from physics to geology and cosmology. These are the areas in which today's science and technology world is looking at the world of the future. Let us tell you, the cost of the supercomputer is Rs 130 crore.
Not only this, PM Modi said that a research fund of Rs 1 lakh crore was announced in this year's budget. The effort is that India should empower the 21st century world with its innovation, make the world stronger. Today there is no sector in which India is not taking new decisions, not making new policies.
Today, in this era of digital revolution, computing capability is becoming synonymous with national capability. There is no sector which is not directly dependent on technology and computing capability, this is the biggest basis of India's success in Industry 4.0. At the same time, Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnav said that the PM has inaugurated the Param Rudra Supercomputer today.
Computers designed in India are being manufactured in India itself. We all know that climate change is a big challenge for us. In these circumstances, by creating supercomputing facilities for the country and by using supercomputing facilities and creating new models, these supercomputers will be very helpful in facing the challenges being faced by farmers, governments, villages, cities and every citizen due to climate change.
Equipped to tackle a wide spectrum of domains such as weather and climate, computational fluid dynamics, bioinformatics, and materials science, these supercomputers are not just computational workhorses. They also bring the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to the forefront, with capabilities in machine learning and deep learning frameworks, providing both computing and storage as cloud services
