What is a supercomputer? Discuss the need for the development of Supercomputers for developing countries like India. (150 words/10 Marks)

Approach Briefly discuss the supercomputers and their characteristics Explain the need for supercomputers in India. Highlight the challenges with respect to supercomputing. Supercomputers are the physical embodiment of high-performance computing allowing organizations to solve problems that would "t be possible with regular computers. A supercomputer works much more quickly by splitting problems into pieces and working on many pieces simultaneously. Pratyush and Mihir are two of the fastest supercomputers in India. India has 5 supercomputers in the TOP500 List of the world’s most powerful supercomputers. Characteristics of Supercomputer Supercomputers are able to solve large amounts of calculations. Multiple users can access the supercomputer at the same time. More expensive than ordinary computers. Use for special areas where complicated calculations are needed. Having huge storage capacity. Need for supercomputers - India needs supercomputers for their multiple advantages that can"t be performed by ordinary computers - Weather forecasting and climate modeling -Supercomputer applications are able to study and understand climate patterns. Computational biology - Supercomputers are used to diagnose various diseases and provide assistance for producing good results in strokes, brain injuries, and other blood flow issues in our bodies. Also, they are used in gene sequencing and analyzing protein samples. Financial Market Place- Supercomputers play a vital role in real financial success in the emerging online currency world such as bitcoin and the stock market. Simulations - Simulation environments are created by supercomputers. eg Disaster management simulation, Atomic energy simulation, and War simulations. Scientific Research - In many experiments such as the Large Hadron Collider at CERN Black holes imaging is used. Big data analytics - the process of extracting useful information and discovering hidden patterns by analyzing the different types of big data sets. Data Mining -Some large-scale companies need a supercomputer for extracting useful information from data storage houses or in the cloud system. Military and Defense Missions- Supercomputing helps to provide virtual testing for nuclear explosions and weapon ballistics. Challenges with supercomputing in India More Expensive Need more space for setup Not able to replace physical testing Need well-trained staff Required more maintenance Need massive external storage for huge data High power requirements Need water cooling in addition to an A/C system, because a supercomputer produces more heat during processing time. GOI has launched a supercomputing program known as the National Supercomputing Mission. The mission envisages empowering us by installing of vast supercomputing grid comprising more than 70 high-performance supercomputing facilities. High-performance computing is important if India wants to make significant progress in areas like weather forecasting, drug discovery, astrophysics, and bioinformatics. Developing indigenous facilities will ensure that applications are tailored to address problems that are specific to India.
