Atos, the global information technology service provider, has announced that PARAM Siddhi — AI has been ranked 63 among the Top 500 supercomputers of the world, also making it the country’s largest and fastest supercomputer.

全球信息技术服务提供商Atos宣布,PARAM Siddhi-AI在世界500强超级计算机中排名第63位,也使其成为该国最大、最快的超级计算机。


This news comes on the heels of an announcement by NVIDIA, just last month, that said that the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) would be commissioning PARAM Siddhi — AI as India’s largest HPC — AI supercomputer.

就在上个月,英伟达(NVIDIA)刚刚宣布,高级计算发展中心(C-DAC)将启用PARAM Siddhi-AI,这是印度最大的HPC-AI超级计算机。



What can it achieve?

它能实现什么?



This supercomputer has been able to meet the several performance benchmarks including 4.6 petaflops sustained double precision, 6.5 petaflops of peak double-precision, and overall 210 AI petaflops. It can use multiple scientific applications, and performance analysis carried out using molecular dynamics, material modelling and quantum chemistry, fluid dynamics, weather ocean and disaster mgmt, etc. Further, PARAM Siddhi — AI has 2.4 million cores along with fairly large storage. 

这台超级计算机已经能够满足几种性能基准,包括4.6千万亿次浮点运算,峰值双精度6.5千万亿次,以及总共210千万亿次浮点运算。它可以使用多种科学应用,并利用分子动力学、材料建模和量子化学、流体动力学、气象海洋和灾害管理等进行性能分析。此外,PARAM Siddhi - AI拥有240万核和相当大的存储空间。


Now the efforts are directed towards building an HPC-AI frxwork with all AI libraries and SDKs which will cater to various applications. These libraries and tools will be built horizontally, and the startups can use them to jumpstart development. During the time of testing, this supercomputer was able to complete an hour of transcxtion in just a second, revealed the C-DAC spokesperson.

现在的目标是建立一个包含所有AI库和sdk的HPC-AI框架,以满足各种应用程序的需要。这些库和工具将搭建为卧式,初创公司可以使用它们来启动开发。C-DAC发言人透露,在测试期间,这台超级计算机能够在一秒钟内完成一个小时的转录。


With PARAM Siddhi AI, the aim is to provide superior computing and processing powers for applications in natural language processing, surveillance and image processing, automotive industry, healthcare, robotics, computer vision, and IoT, among others. Additionally, speaking at the event, Ajay Prakash Sawhney, secretary of MeitY said that PARAM Siddhi — AI would be greatly instrumental in meeting the goals of the National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence (NSAI). 

PARAM Siddhi AI的目标是为自然语言处理、监视和图像处理、汽车工业、医疗保健、机器人技术、计算机视觉和物联网等领域的应用提供卓越的计算和处理能力。此外,在会议上,MeitY的秘书Ajay Prakash Sawhney说,PARAM Siddhi - AI将大大有助于实现国家人工智能战略的目标。


He said, “It has been a couple of years since NSAI has been unveiled. For meeting the goals of this program, a significant requirement is superior computing power which can process an enormous amount of data using multiple GPUs and huge-scale computing. In this regard, this is the latest supercomputer that will prove to be greatly beneficial.”

他说:“NSAI已经推出好几年了。为了满足这个程序的目标,一个重要的要求是优越的计算能力,可以处理大量的数据使用多个gpu和大规模的计算。在这方面,这是最新的超级计算机,将被证明是非常有益的。”


Echoing the same sentiments, DST secretary Prof. Ashutosh Sharma stated that, this supercomputer would provide access to the high-performance computing (HPC) facilities to academic institutions, research and development institutes, as well as industries and start-ups over the National Knowledge Network (NKN) grid.

DST秘书Ashutosh Sharma教授表示,这台超级计算机将通过国家知识网络(NKN)网格为学术机构、研究和发展机构以及行业和初创企业提供高性能计算(HPC)设施。


The spokespersons in the event also outlined board policy and technology-level measures being taken to protect the data utilised by the supercomputer. Apart from having a data policy and data security policy in place, built in accordance with the international guidelines, it uses edge computing facilitated by its core of Ampere A100 GPU in conjunction with the Nvidia Mellanox.

会议发言人也概述了委员会为保护这台超级电脑所使用的数据而采取的董事政策及技术层面的措施。除了有一个根据国际准则建立的数据政策和数据安全政策,它使用了边缘计算,由其核心Ampere A100 GPU 配合Nvidia Mellanox配合执行。


India — AI garage of the world?

印度:全世界的AI车库?


Interestingly, as revealed by Vishal Dhupar from Nvidia, the primary focus of building PARAM Siddhi — AI in the most initial stages of development was to build software that could write software.

有趣的是,正如英伟达的Vishal Dhupar所透露的那样,在开发的最初阶段,PARAM Siddhi - AI的主要关注点是开发能够编写软件的软件。


He said, “Our nation is built on the expertise of a software engineer. But their ratio is just 0.5%. But if you take the 0.5 and augment that to over 90%, we will be able to do many things that alone humans can not do. Supercomputers like PARAM Siddi — AI can assist in this endeavour. It is transformational for India. Software engineers work that was done manually could now be augmented.”

他说:“我们的国家是建立在软件工程师的专业知识上的。但他们所占的比例仅为0.5%。但是如果你把这个0.5增加到90%以上,我们将能够实现很多人类无法做到的事情。像PARAM Siddi - AI这样的超级计算机可以协助这一努力。这是印度的变革。软件工程师手工完成的工作现在可以得到增强。”


He further added that the aim was to make India the ‘AI garage of the world’.

他进一步补充说,目标是让印度成为“世界AI车库”。


Notably, PARAM Siddhi is the second Indian supercomputer to enter the Top 100 in the list. Weather forecasting supercomputer Pratyush at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology ranked 78th on the November edition of the list, which is a few ranks down from its 66th in the June rankings announced by the project.

值得注意的是,PARAM Siddhi是第二台进入前100名的印度超级计算机。印度热带气象研究所的气象预报超级计算机Pratyush在11月份的榜单上排名第78位,比该项目6月份公布的第66位低了几位。


Wrapping up

总结



In this context, it is important to note that the same list contains 212 systems of China, 113 from the US, and 34 from Japan; with the US systems voted best in terms of performance. Considering this, it still seems there is a long way for India but now at least has a good head start.

由此而论,值得注意的是,这个榜单包含了中国的212台系统,美国的113台和日本的34台;在性能方面,美国的系统被评为最佳。考虑到这一点,印度似乎还有很长的路要走,但至少现在有了一个良好的开端。

newb3e
india supa and powa in same sentence you know that new is fake and full of delusional claims and bs!

如果“印度”、“超级”和“大国”这些词出现在一个句子里,我们就知道这个新闻是假的,充满了虚妄的说法和胡说八道!


masterchief_mirza
Has it faced off against Modi and his magical mathematics yet?

它已经与莫迪和他的神奇数学对决过了吗?


HostileInsurgent
This ranking is not made by us, go check it yourself.

这个排名又不是我们做的,你自己去看看吧。



arjunk
a moment of silence for all the indian students who had an exam the day after they listened to his bs

为所有听完他的废话后第二天参加考试的印度学生默哀。

Have Nuclear Bombs As small As 150-250 Grams, Says Pakistan Minister
Pakistan has tactical nuclear weapons as small as 125-250 grams which are capable of destroying a targeted area, Railways Minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad has claimed, amidst fresh Indo-Pak tensions over Jammu and Kashmir.
www.ndtv.com www.ndtv.com

先教你们的部长去吧。
“巴基斯坦部长说他们拥有小到150-250g的核弹”
“巴基斯坦铁路部长谢赫·拉希德·艾哈迈德声称,巴基斯坦拥有125-250克的战术核武器,能够摧毁目标地区。目前印巴在查谟和克什米尔问题上的紧张局势再次升级。”


masterchief_mirza
What nonsense? You wasted all that money on a "supercomputer" when the guy you need is already here. This man sees through clouds, unravels ancient mathematical conundra, and spells out impossible words like "STREANH" without batting an eyelid.

你在胡说什么?你们明明已经有了需要的人,还把所有的钱都浪费在一台“超级计算机”上。这个人能看穿云层,解开古老的数学难题,毫不眨眼地说出像“STREANH”这样不存在的单词。



newb3e 
i googled only found bhakti media lixs if its actually powa fool as you claim it to be why only rss boys know about it and not everyone?

我搜了一下,只找到了印度媒体的链接,如果像你这种超级傻瓜所说,这是真的,那为什么只有你们RSS佬知道这件事,而不是所有人都知道呢?


HostileInsurgent
Then cry me a river

你不知道你可以哭啊。


Capt. Karnage
Guys please don't post irrelevant and nonsensical posts here.

朋友们请不要在这里发布无关的和无意义的帖子。


masterchief_mirza
He's referring to the fissile material. Considering the fissile material in the bombs over Hiroshima weighed in at around the order of 50-100kg, a "tactical" nuke would realistically require something of the order of fissile mass as stated by Ahmad. It actually sounds plausible.
Hiding from radar behind clouds though...

他指的是可裂变材料。考虑到广岛上空的核弹中含有大约50-100公斤的裂变物质,一枚“战术”核弹实际上需要的裂变物质的质量与艾哈迈德所说的差不多。这听起来很有道理。
但某人说躲在云层后面可以避开雷达……


Capt. Karnage
Please do not derail the thread

别东拉西扯了。

And the technology behind the nukes that will not kill Muslims of India and everyone else will die?
www.theweek.in
Can nuke India without harming Muslims: Pakistan railway minister
Pakistan has "small" and "calculated" nuclear weapons says minister
www.theweek.in www.theweek.in

那你们这种核弹隐藏的技术,可以杀掉印度所有人,而避开穆斯林?
“巴基斯坦铁路部长:用核武器攻击印度,而不伤害穆斯林,可能实现吗?”
“巴基斯坦拥有‘小型’和‘精准’核武器。”

no 63=“NOW RANKED AMONG WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL” ???♂????♂????♂?

“63名”等于“印度现在是世界上最强大的国家之一”,耸耸肩。


Beidou2020
When I saw the headline I thought it would be top 10.
63? bwahahahahaha

当我看到标题,我还以为是前10呢。
63?哈哈哈哈哈。


FairAndUnbiased
are you surprised? This is India.

你诧异了吧?但这就是印度。


rott
I was even more generous, I was thinking like 4 or 5. :lol:
All useless Chinese members getting trolled by Indians :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

我更慷慨,我还以为是第四名或者第五名。
这些没用的中国成员都被印度人耍了。


dharmi
it probably is in the top 10 if 50 of the 63 are concentrated in 4 - 5 countries.

如果前50都集中在4-5个国家,那63也可能是前10。


rott
What? Can you say it in simple English?

啥?你能用简单的英语说说吗?


Capt. Karnage
There are no Chinese here.

这里哪有中国人。


UDAYCAMPUS
Why are Pakistanis trolling here when they don't even have a system in top 500 and we have 2 in top 100? Really some people just born to troll and have no accomplishments themselves, and to chinese trolls I hope you realize being in top 100 is a big accomplishment which shows a counties efforts towards r&d, just cause you have more in top 100 doesnt give you the right to troll

为什么巴基斯坦人要在这里捣乱?他们甚至没有进入500强的系统,而我们有2台进入了100强!有些人难道是天生的喷子?自己没有一点成就,还有中国喷子,我希望你们知道,成为前100也是一大成就,这体现了一个国家对于研发的努力,不要因为你们的前100更多,你们就有权喷人。


rott
You're wrong. Actually Chinese members got trolled by Indian news because of this title, "INDIA’S SUPERCOMPUTER NOW RANKED AMONG WORLD’S MOST Powerful" 

你说错了,实际上中国成员是被印度报道欺骗了,因为这个标题:“印度的超级计算机跻身世界最强大之列”。


UDAYCAMPUS
It is among the world's most powerful, all systems within top 100 are, top 100 computing systems among millions out in there in the world is what powerful is, we are not saying it is top 10

它是世界上最强大的系统之一,前100名的所有系统都是,前100名的计算机系统在世界上数以百万计的计算机系统中是多么强大,我们又没有说它进了前10名。
