Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur will soon impart training to students, faculty, scientists, researchers in high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence.
HPC refers to the practice of aggregating computing power in a way that delivers much higher performance than one could get out of a typical desktop computer.
The institute has set up the Center for Computational and Data Sciences (CCDS) funded by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) to carry out next-generation inter-disciplinary research and teaching activities that involve the HPC platform.
