Well,

If it is there then all the computers that are in our office should also be networked with each other..

because sometimes some client will surely come to us for if we can run their software for some time on our own super computer...

hi,
I am not talking about LAN systems, but 'parallel' processing of the same data using more than one MCU,
connected and programmed in such a way as they share the processing required on the same data set.

Default Grid Computing

Hi Simran,
The technique is known as 'Grid Computing'. A good starting point is the wikipedia article
(Google will also give you some good links).




It's good to see India starting to take an active part in computing hardware.
They have done (and continue to do) so much work on the software side.



Little known fact: The 'Boson' sub atomic particle is named after professor Satyendra Nath Bose (Bengal) who collaborated on quantum mechanics with Einstein.


There was also J C Bose.
"100 years ago Jagadish Chandra Bose described to the Royal Institution in London his research carried out in Calcutta at millimeter wavelengths. He used waveguides, horn antennas, dielectric lenses, various polarizers and even semiconductors at frequencies as high as 60 GHz"

"Some concepts from his original 1897 papers have been incorporated into a new 1.3-mm multi-beam receiver now in use on the NRAO 12 Meter Telescope"

It has been manufactured by the company TATA...

It rank is four.. and speed of around 117.9 tera flops...

It is the fastest in ASIA... Wonderful thing
Congratulations! And to think your countrymen have us here, at ElectroTech to thank for that! I knew all those replies to the endless threads: "Sirs, I need ideas and technical diagrams for senior final project" would pay off for us sooner or later.

Is that's where the Chandra X-ray observatory got it's name from?

The observatory was named after Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar -
"widely regarded as one of the foremost astrophysicists of the twentieth century"

Smile Thanks...

Thanks..

Some are the people in our country who really make us proud... like the name that you mentioned above..

I hope some day I may also do something new that every one will like...

Well... Dreams are free of cost and they are meant to be seen..

Practical approach helps them come true..

Regards,

Simran..

I didn't think they still bothered with supercomputers these days.

I thought they just use clusters or really powerful PCs nowadays.
