List Of The Fastest Supercomputer In India A High Performance Computer

A supercomputer is a high-performance computer with many times the speed and security of a regular computer. A supercomputer's performance is measured in million instructions per second (MIPS). While a general-purpose computer can perform thousands of floating-point operations per second, the general-purpose computer cannot (FLOPS). India is rapidly advancing in terms of technology. India has supercomputers as well. We'll go over fastest supercomputers in India, as well as which ones are there.

PARAM 8000

The PARAM 8000, a 64-node machine, was the first machine developed from the ground up, and it was introduced in August 1991. Each node employed Inmos T800/T805 transputers; this 256-node system had a theoretical performance of 1Gflops but only 100-200Mflops in practise.

The PARAM 8000 is based on distributed memory MIMD architecture with a reprogrammable connectivity network.

PARAM 8600

PARAM 8600 is an enhanced version of PARAM 8000. C-DAC intended to add extra power by integrating the Intel i860 CPU. Each 8600 cluster had the same processing power as four PARAM 8000 clusters.

PARAM 9000

The PARAM 9000 designed to combine cluster and massively parallel processing computing tasks. Using the Clos network design, this system expanded up to 200 CPUs with 32–40 processors. The SuperSPARC II CPU was used in the PARAM 9000/SS, the UltraSPARC processor was used in the PARAM 9000/US, and the DEC Alpha was used in the PARAM 9000/AA.

PARAM 10000

The PARAM 10000 was unveiled. Each node of this supercomputer was built on a Sun Enterprise 250 server, which contained two 400 Mhz UltraSPARC II processors. This system's maximum speed was 6.4 Gflops. This would have 160 CPUs and 100 Gflops of processing power, easily extendable to the Tflop range.

PARAM Padma

In December of 2002, PARAM Padma was released. In June 2003, it was the first Indian supercomputer to join the Top500 list of supercomputers in the world, coming in at number 171. PARAM Padma's top speed was 1024 Gflops (about 1 Tflops). IBM POWER4 CPUs were employed in the computer.

PARAM Yuva

PARAM Yuva was announced in November 2008 and is now ranked 69th among the world's Top500 supercomputers. The maximum sustained speed (Rmax) of this supercomputer is 38.1 Tflops, and the maximum speed (Rpeak) is 54 Tflops. It utilised PARAMNet-3 as its principal connector and had storage capacities ranging from 25 to 200 TB.

Param Yuva II

In February 2013, PARAM Yuva II was unveiled. It was built in three months for a total cost of 160 million dollars. It has a peak performance of 524 Tflops, which is nearly 10 times faster than the current facility, and it will use 35% less energy than the current facility. On the community standard LINPACK benchmark, the supercomputer can produce a sustained performance of 360.8 Tflops, according to CDAC. This is the fastest supercomputer in India have a performance of more than 500 Teraflops.
