People have been the foundation of Institute’s success ♂
In addition, there are two new Teaching Labs equipped with state-of-the-art teaching aids including projectors, TV screens and theatre-style seating that can accommodate up to 100 students at any given time.
In order to deliver sustainable and reliable computing resources and services to meet research demands of IIITH’s highly computational research community, the institute has a High-Performance Computing (HPC) service that provides campus researchers with cutting-edge computing infrastructure, enabling them to address scientific, application and engineering problems and solve challenges in the areas of Computer Vision, Machine/Deep Learning, Natural Language Processing, Bioinformatics as well as investigate chemical and biological processes such as protein folding.
The HPC cluster facility, named, “Ada” after Ada Lovelace, the first ever computer programmer, consists of 92 nodes, each equipped with dual Intel Xeon E5-2640 v4 processor, 128 GB RAM, four Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti / RTX 2080 Ti GPUs and two scratch disks (2 TB SATA and 960 GB SSD SATA). The cluster has a total of 3680 CPU cores, 1472512 GPU cores and 11776 GB RAM. The aggregate theoretical peak performance is 70.66 TFLOPS.
Abacus is the first HPC cluster facility of IIITH, with a total of 59 HP SL230s compute nodes. Each node is equipped with two Intel Xeon E5-2640 processors, 48 to 96 GB RAM and 2 TB scratch disk. The nodes are interconnected through Gigabit and 4X QDR Infiniband. The cluster provides about 14 TFLOPS of peak computing power.
Polymer Lab: Flexible Circuits and Systems (FleCS Lab) focuses on the development of flexible circuits, sensor systems, polymer-based device fabrication and characterization. In this lab, students have access to state-of-the-art equipment for polymer research such as spin-coater, ultrasonicator, vacuum chamber, centrifuge, precision pipettes, microscope, magnetic stirrer, and precision weighing scale. Areas of research include fabrication of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) for soft robotics applications, development of polymer-based conductive inks, and development of novel flexible sensor systems.
Product Labs, the market relevant product engineering arm of technology transfer office (TTO) curates and brings relevant market/business insights to the institute, defines products based on market potential, enables market/licensing readiness of Institute research and identifies “Go To Market” owner and collaborates with partnering corporates/Investors.
Embedded Systems and IoT Lab is equipped with ARM Processor kits, ATMEGA32 boards, Altera FPGA Boards, Zed boards, TI Mixed Signal System Development kit
NLP HACKATHON (Online Hackathon) ♂
1. The event is open to startups & individual innovators (intending to create startup).
2. A maximum of 5 people can be part of team
3. The idea must have an "Indian language" translation component.
4. The team shortlisted for Hackathon should participate in pre Hackathon workshop
5. The winning teams must attend the idea shaping workshop to claim the prize (post hackathon)
6. The teams must pitch the idea at pre-hackathon workshop
7. The teams must demo the working prototype to the panel for final evaluation.
8. The team shall take responsibility for any IP violation
9. The team shall be competent to understand NLP technologies and implement solutions using the APIs provided by IIITH.
10. The team shall get their own computers/laptops and host the solutions at their own cost.
11. IIITH shall provide the access to the Language technology APIs and the orientation to the teams. No other computing resources will be provided except for the ones needed to run IIITH tech engines somoothly.
