A couple of days back DG-DRDO Avinash Chander Inaugurated
Dhruva-3 computing platform.
“It is one of the fastest computing facility in the
country and will also play a very good role in cyber security and information
processing”, Chander said.
"CVS Sastry, informed that DHRUVA-3 will be used for
designing aero-frame structures, stress analysis of materials and simulation of
complex systems."
This product came out from the stable of 'Advanced
Numerical Research & Analysis Group (ANURAG)'. ANURAG was established in
1988, "to execute specific, time-bound projects/ programmes leading to the
development of custom designed computing systems and software packages for
numerical analysis and other applications".
Other important products came out from ANURAG are, PACE,
ANAMICA (ANURAG's Medical Imaging and Characterization Aid), general purpose
microprocessors - ANUPAMA (32-bit RISC processor, and works at 33 MHz clock
speed) and ABACUS.
Hope that Dhruva will contribute significantly for the advancement
of aircraft design and simulations.
Sajeev.
