  • National Supercomputing Mission
    02 April, 2020 National Supercomputing Mission Part of: GS Prelims and GS-III- S&T India has produced just three supercomputers since 2015 under the National Supercomputing Mission (NSM). National Supercomputing Mission The National Supercomputing Mission was announced in 2015, with an aim to connect national academic and R&D institutions with a grid of more than 70 high-performance computing facilities at an estimated cost of ?4,500 crores over the period of seven years. It supports the government's vision of 'Digital India' and 'Make in India' initiatives. The mission is being implemented by the Department of Science and Technology (Ministry of Science and Technology) and Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), through the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), Pune and Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru. It is also an effort to improve the number of supercomputers owned by India. These supercomputers will also be networked on the National Supercomputing grid over the National Knowledge Network (NKN). The NKN connects academic institutions and R&D labs over a high-speed network. Under NSM, the long-term plan is to build a strong base of 20,000 skilled persons over the next five years who will be equipped to handle the complexities of supercomputers. Key Points Progress of NSM: NSM’s first supercomputer named Param Shivay has been installed in IIT-BHU, Varanasi, in 2019. It has 837 TeraFlop High-Performance Computing (HPC) capacity. The second supercomputer with a capacity of 1.66 PetaFlop has been installed at IIT-Kharagpur. The third system, Param Brahma, has been installed at IISER-Pune, which has a capacity of 797 TeraFlop.

  • 6.Science and Technology
    6.Science and Technology Science and Technology in India 1. India boasts of many contributions such as the first use of zero as revealed by the Bakshali manuscript. However, India now needs to look ahead of its past laurels and move from being a net consumer of knowledge to becoming a net producer as it emerges as one of the world’s largest economies. According to WIPO, India is the seventh largest patent filing office in the world. However, India produces fewer patents per capita. 2. Current situation 1. India has become a major destination for outsourced R&D activities. We currently have more than 1,100 R&D centres set up by MNCs such as IBM, Google, etc. 2. Indian scientists are at the forefront of some global groundbreaking work. For example, 37 Indian scientists from nine Indian institutions played a key role in the discovery of gravitational waves that received the Physics Nobel prize in 2017. Indian scientists also contributed to the discovery of a neutron star merger at Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO), USA. 3. The development of Brahmos, advanced air defence supersonic interceptor missiles, diverse missiles and rocket systems, remotely piloted vehicles, light combat aircraft (LCA), etc., are brilliant examples of India’s progress in strategic and defence technologies. 4. India now ranks amongst a handful of nations that have credible capabilities in the field of space technology. The upgrading from SLV to ASLV and PSLV to GSLV, the first moon orbiter project Chandrayan-1, Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) at the cheapest price and the recent simultaneous launch of 104 satellites are India’s significant achievements.

    DHRUV TIMES 29.06.20 ALL INDIA EDITION Dhruv’s Times Our motto: “If you read, you will succeed!” Vol. 52 29/06/20 From the Hey guys, welcome to this edition of your favorite kids’ newspaper, DT! Guys, today I went to my school to get all my supplies for the term, and Editor’s believe me, I got a little nostalgic when I entered the gates of the school. I even went to my class because my mother thought that there desk would be something left in my locker from my previous grade. And boy, what nostalgia! The attendance space were teacher used to write our class strength, the whiteboard, the lockers, the drawers, you name it, everything! I was so happy that after 3 months, I was back to my class again, for a brief moment. There were teachers in the school too. There was the Vice-principal, Ms. Priyadarshini, and a bunch of other people too, but not many that I recognized. Okay, enough about this. Let’s start this paper! Guys, I want to tell you something serious – would you like to be a boxer? Because I just saw this interesting movie – Creed 2, and it’s all about the boxer Adonis “Donnie” Creed, who fights with Viktor Drago, whose father killed Donnie’s father in 1985. So he gets revenge when he challenges Viktor to a Boxing match, and that match turned out to be a really painful one. If you ask me though, I’d rather not take a risk. I seriously don’t want to lose blood while playing a sport and believe me, if I die because some maniac punched me to death, like Apollo Creed, Donnie’s father, then my life would suddenly screech to a halt, and I seriously don’t want that to happen.
