  • Driving the Change from Computers to Computerisation
    Driving the Change from Computers to Computerisation Excerpts from the book Icons of Indian IT By by Anand Parthasarathy & S Sadagopan 2018 / 148 pages / Hardcover / Rs. 1995 ISBN: 978-8183284851 / Wisdom Tree Prof Mahabala never saw himself as just an academic, so while he helped to set up the first mainframe computers in India’s leading engineering institutions, he also assisted in opening them up for research and industrial use. At the Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) at Kanpur and Madras (now Chennai) and at the Computer Society of India (CSI), he kick- started the computer revolution and ensured it permeated every facet of societal change in India. Fresh from Canada, where he had obtained his doctorate in Electrical Engineering, Mahabala together with V Rajaraman and HK Kesavan, played a pioneering role in shaping IIT Kanpur into a crucible of Computer Science. When Mahabala finished his doctorate in electrical engineering in 1964 at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, he took a few days off to visit the IBM plant in Don Mills, Ontario. ‘I saw an IBM 1620 being tested prior to shipping. It carried a placard “CAWNPORE”. I was told that it was being sent to IIT Kanpur, and was, in fact, the first computer to be installed in an educational institution in India,’ he recounts. By one of those happy coincidences, Mahabala ended up in the same institution. He got a telegram from IIT Kanpur— ‘Come and join as an assistant professor’. He later found out this was the work of Prof HK Kesavan of the electrical engineering department, with whom he had interacted briefly on a previous short visit.

The proposed appointment of Dr Sethuraman Panchanathan, Senior Vice President of the Office of Knowledge Enterprise Development at Arizona State University (ASU), was announced by the White House Friday with 15 other key administration posts. "Our nation will be greatly served by the talent and expertise these individuals bring to their new roles. I am grateful they have agreed to serve in this Administration, and I look forward to working with them in the months and years ahead," Obama said. At over thirty, the Obama administration has more Indian-Americans working at high places than in any other previous administration. Panchanathan, who has held his current position at ASU since 2011, previously worked as a Data Communication Engineer for International Software India Limited in Chennai, India in 1986. He received a BSc from the University of Madras, a BE from the Indian Institute of Science, an MTech from the Indian Institute of Technology, and a PhD from the University of Ottawa, Canada. Panchanathan has held a number of positions at Arizona State University since 1998.

  • Annual Report 2007 | Reports & Filings | Investors
    Once upon a time, the world was spiky. Opportunities were unequal across countries, information was often walled and new economies were unheard of. But around the mid 990s, things started changing. Wealth began to spread, opening up fresh markets. A baby-boomer generation aged in developed countries while a Gen-Y exploded in emerging ones, rebalancing the workforce and propelling new economies. Technology became ubiquitous, connecting people and information. Together, these disruptive forces rearranged and leveled the global business-scape. Braving the waves of complex regulations and changing customer expectations, a new breed of entrepreneurs arrived to claim the unexplored land. They found a flat world. We live in exciting times.
