INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY - RESOURCE CENTER (ICT-RC)

"The Center of Excellence in Information Technology"

Welcome to the ICT - Resource Center at the Nelson Mandela African Institution of Science and Technology (NM-AIST). The center of excellence in information technology.
Param Kilimanjaro Super Computer

PARAM Kilimanjaro Super Computer (HPC) is an ICT infrastructure available at NM-AIST which has the ability to process data and perform complex calculations at a high speed. We all know that a laptop with 3 GHz processor can perform around 3 billion calculations per second. While that is much faster than any human can achieve, the HPC can perform quadrillion of calculation per second. From business point of view ... Read More.....>>>

HPC Business Value Addition:

 

HPC system plays a crucial role in the development of robot technologies by collect and process vast amounts of sensor data in real-time and enabling accurate perception and decision-making.  It allows the optimization of robot designs, algorithms, and control systems through large-scale simulations and iterative processes. 

 

HPC system is vital for advancing machine learning (ML). It can handle large-scale computations and data. It can process massive datasets for training complex ML models in deep neural networks. It reduce the time required to train models by providing high computational power, enabling more iterations and experimentation.
