IT company IBM and the state-owned Centre for Development of Advanced Computing have signed a memorandum of understanding to collaborate on the creation of a joint working group to accelerate high-performance computing in India, IBM said on Wednesday.
The collaboration is intended to spur and support the growth of India's developer community with a focus on processor design, system design, firmware, and application development, including contributions to open-source initiatives, IBM said in a statement.
"This collaboration aims to create…a conducive environment. At IBM, we are proud to partner with C-DAC to take the next step towards our continued commitment to enhance India's digital transformation and economic growth through such technologies," Sandip Patel, Managing Director, IBM India & South Asia, said.
As part of this MoU, both parties will promote IBM's Power processor for high-performance computing (HPC) applications across Indian startups, MSMEs, research organisations and academic institutions.
Through the HPC working group, IBM and C-DAC plan to collaborate in several key areas, spanning skilling, competency and ecosystem building in HPC design research across the full technology stack for processor development. PTI PRS PRS BAL BAL
