BRIEF DESCRIPTION:

The Department of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science (AI&DS) at Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology (SMIT), in collaboration with the All-India Council of Technical Education (AICTE), New Delhi, and the Centre for Faculty and Staff Development (CFSD) at SMIT, successfully conducted a one-day AICTE-SANKALP Awareness Workshop on High Performance Computing (HPC) on July 27, 2024.

The workshop featured Dr. Krishna Vijay Kumar Singh, a C-DAC Master Trainer and AICTE- nominated expert, who provided insightful sessions on the fundamental concepts of HPC and parallel programming covering the following Topic.

1.     HPC Architecture: An Introduction to High Performance Computing

2.     Parallel programming using OpenMP and MPI

3.     Parallel Programming with Co-Processors (GPU Programming and CUDA)

The program was inaugurated by Dr. Om Prakash Singh, Head of the Department of AI&DS and Head of the CFSD at SMIT, who delivered a welcome address that set a tone of enthusiasm and dedication at 11:00 AM. Dr. Singh emphasized the critical importance of HPC in today’s technological landscape. He continued the talk with some demonstration of experiments on Param Utkarsh supercomputer. It may also be noted that Dr. Singh is presently working an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Application at SMIT and recognized as AICTE-MASTER training for imparting training on High Performance Training (HPC).

AICTE-SANKALP is an initiative by the All-India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) aimed at fostering awareness and skills in High-Performance Computing (HPC) among students and faculty of technical education institutions, facilitated by AICTE Master Trainers.
