Cochin University of Science and Technology (Cusat) has travel up with its ‘Tejaswi’ hybrid supercomputing installation designed to accelerate probe successful Artificial Intelligence (AI), technological simulations, and high-performance computing astatine an concern of ₹26 crore.
The cutting-edge hybrid computing facility, established utilising assistance nether the Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB), volition beryllium inaugurated connected October 27.
The task includes the constitution of accepted precocious show computing (HPC) and a state-of-the-art AI compute infrastructure, featuring 102 computing server nodes, 9 GPU servers, 2-Petabyte parallel record strategy storage, and a high-performance web interconnect, said Santhosh Kumar. G, Professor, Department of Computer Science, and Director of the Centre for Information Resource Management.
The facility, which has been acceptable up astatine the Computer Centre of the university, integrates accepted High-Performance Computing (HPC) capabilities, delivering 350 TFLOPS (Tera Floating Point Operations per second) sustained performance, with modern AI/Machine Learning (ML) workloads. This hybrid attack ensures broad capableness for technological simulations, modelling, and data-intensive AI development, helium said.
“Tejaswi”supports starring unfastened root applications, including clime modelling (WRF, REGCM4), Computational Chemistry and Physics (GROMACS, VASP, Quantum Espresso). It volition besides make physically realistic information points indispensable for AI training.
The installation is expected to supply almighty computational resources to boost precocious probe crossed assorted faculties and to assistance the varsity’s efforts to fortify its probe successful emerging fields specified arsenic AI and instrumentality learning. The authorities stated that it is specifically designed to cater to the improvement of computer-oriented initiatives launched by the State government.
