Motivation
High Performance Computing (HPC) is the use of powerful processors, networks and parallel computers to tackle problems that are very compute or data-intensive. The HPC techniques can be used to program the largest computer containing hundreds of thousands of processors, or to exploit the full potential of a multi-core laptop.
HPC is widely used in a range of areas of science, engineering and industry. Many branches of modern science, such as climate research and nanotechnology, rely on complex computer models which can only be run on parallel supercomputers. Companies involved in areas such as aerospace and automotive engineering, oil exploration, drug design, Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and genetic sequencing all run computer models on HPC systems. HPC techniques are now essential for any software developer who wants to take full advantage of modern multi-core processors and computing clusters.
The Industry giants work in the area of HPC are DELL, HP, Microsoft, VMWARE, IBM and many more.
Program Objective
The M.Sc. Tech High Performance Computing Program is geared to industrial processes and research methods.
Provide students with expertise in advanced tools and techniques for HPC software development and numerical algorithms.
Enable students to apply this knowledge to key areas in Science and technology.
Equip students with the interdisciplinary skills that form an integral part of modern computational science.
Develop student’s skills in problem solving, project management, independent critical thinking, professionalism and communication.
This also paves way for graduates towards a doctoral degree.
Program Highlights
The master program in High Performance Computing offers a unique course which can provide from the conventional High Performance Computation to the latest cloud computation.
The course offers necessary knowledge of the hardware and the software to design, implement and validate for High Performance Computation.
Eligibility
The candidate from BE/BTech in Electronics & Communication, Electrical & Electronics, Telecommunication, Computer Science or any other relevant branches in Engineering/MCA/MSc in computer science will have direct entry into the 2nd year (i.e. 3rd semester).
