IIT Madras and IISc Launch National Supercomputing Hub for Quantum Simulation
EXPRESS ARCHIVE: Institutional documentation relating to IIT Madras and IISc Launch National Supercomputing Hub for Quantum Simulation.
The Department of Science and Technology has inaugurated a petascale quantum simulation and supercomputing center jointly operated by IISc and IIT Madras.
The installation features indigenous liquid-cooled high-performance compute nodes optimized for molecular dynamics, material science, and climate forecasting.
Doctoral scholars and startup incubators receive subsidized compute access to train sovereign large language models across Indian official constitutional languages.
"Academic compute sovereignty enables Indian researchers to solve national challenges in materials, medicine, and climate with localized precision."
The center also offers certified courses in parallel computing architectures to expand India's cadre of high-performance software engineers.
