PARAM Supercomputer Among the Most Power Efficient Systems of the World


The Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) has achieved a significant milestone with PARAM Yuva II supercomputer being ranked 1st in India, 9th in the Asia Pacific Region and 44th in the world among the most power efficient computer systems as per the Green 500 List announced at the Supercomputing Conference (SC'2013) in Denver, Colorado, USA.

Supercomputers, in general, consume a lot of electrical power and produce much heat that necessitates elaborate cooling facilities to ensure proper operation. This adds to increase in the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of a supercomputer. To draw focus towards development of energy efficient supercomputers, Green500 ranks computer systems in the world according to compute performance per watt, thus providing a world ranking based on energy efficiency. 

Energy consumed by supercomputers is measured at various Levels – L1, L2, L3 - for purpose of reporting. As the level increases, accuracy and rigor of measurement exercise also increases. It is also a measure of our capability and noteworthy that C-DAC is the second organization worldwide to have carried out the Level 3 measurement of Power versus Performance for the Green500 List. 

Shri Kapil Sibal, Minister for Communications & Information Technology, has congratulated C-DAC for this significant achievement. He said that supercomputing is very important for the all round advancements in the country, and the Government is planning a big impetus for capacity building and advanced R&D in this area. He would expect many more contributions from C-DAC, as a key player, in this endeavour. 

PARAM Yuva – II uses hybrid technology – processor, co-processor and hardware accelerators - to provide the peak compute power of 520.4 Teraflop/s using 210 kiloWatt power. The interconnect network comprises of homegrown PARAMNet-III and Infiniband FDR System Area Network. This system is designed to solve large and complex computational problems. The system has 200 Terabytes of high performance storage, and requisite system software and utilities for parallel applications development.

SOFTWARE UPDATION AUTOMATED IN SPEEDNET 4.1.


The Center for Excellence in Postal Technology (CEPT), Mysore is making constant efforts to improve the quality of software to provide best services.  As part of this activity, CEPT will now be pushing Speednet updates from the Data centre directly to the field offices, which have implemented Speednet Version 4.1.
At present, whenever an update is released for Speednet, the System Administrator has to go round all the offices under his control and to update software manually.   Now this process is automated. The software at the local office gets updated automatically whenever CEPT releases update.  SpeedNet communication will do the miracle.
Prerequisite:
a)    SpeedNet Update 4.1 should be available in the system.
b)    In respect of computers running XP SP1 or SP2, DotNetframework 2.0 or higher to be installed.

How it happens:

a)    If the updates are limited to database upgration the same will happen silently in the background.
b)    If the updates includes application level changes
                i).        the operator will be shown a message indicating availability of New update, at the time of login. Follow the instructions displayed. (This activity can be done by any operator)
                  ii).        Software will not allow login, unless the upgradation process is completed.
Action to be taken by Offices running much older versions:
Offices not implementing Speednet Version 4.1, will have to upgrade manually by downloading the SpeedOne Updater.exe file available in the CEPT FTP site (at ftp://cept.gov.in/SpeedNet/speednet4.1.1/). For upgradation requirements, please refer the ReadMe file.
Challenges:
During automatic transmission, files may get damaged due to various Network or other problems.  In such cases errors will be displayed while updating the application.  When such errors are encountered, please download the update directly fromftp://cept.gov.in/SpeedNet/speednet4.1.1/

LDC-UDC ISSUE : TOWARDS A FINAL ACTION ON LDC & UDC GRADE PAY ISSUE…


TOWARDS A FINAL ACTION 

WHY THE REPRESENTATIVES OF LDC & UDC SHOULD ASSEMBLE AT DELHI ON 9TH JANUARY 2014…?

This Association has been receiving opinion from LDC & UDCs of various Ministries of GOI in respect of upgradation of grade pay viz. (1) taking up of the LDC & UDC issue through political leaders including Sonia Gandhi (2) Challenge the present pay structure of LDC & UDC in the Principle bench of CAT. (3) Conducting pen-down strike to achieve the demand; and now we have a 4th opinion i.e. getting the grade pay of LDC & UDC upgraded through restructuring.

As regards the option (1) above, several of the experienced persons have advised me the way is not workable because no political leader/Multi-cadre Associations would support a particular cadre without considering the after effect of the pay structure of other cadres. Even the railway unions have not demanding upgradation of grade pay of the lakhs of junior clerks working in the railways.

Through option (2), we can put up the actual work load of LDC & UDC in subordinate offices; the decision of the pay Commission increasing the educational & technical qualification of LDC without an equal increase in the pay structure; subsequent increase of Grade pay by several state Governments who have implemented the 6th CPC in their state and other related issues before the court through a very good advocate.  It is worth to mention here that Confederation also has advised us to file a case in the principle CAT on the issue.

The 3rd opinion as received i.e. conducting of pen down strike by the LDC & UDCs is not practical because these LDC/UDC are spread over various ministries of GOI and lack of a common Association/Federation representing all these LDC & UDC. Moreover, we have the experience that major Federations, in which LDC & UDC of the respective Departments also members are not taking any active initiation to resolve the LDC/UDC issue.

As regards the 4th point, the instructions of Ministry of Finance to the FA, DoP&T is not complete. Restructuring of LDC & UDCs by each ministry according to merits of the representation made by the Associations is not practical. DoPT has to issue detailed instruction regarding the nomenclature of the posts, time frame for its implementation etc.

Thus in order to take a decision/forming a steering committee for further action a meeting of the representative/ Associations is organized on 9th January 2013 at New Delhi. The venue will be JANTHAR-MANTHAR i.e. the venue of Dharna of Confederation. The top leaders of Confederation will be available in the venue to take advice on the issue. We appeal all our friends, who gave me much energy to fight the case so far, to please attend the meeting.

All friends who attend the meeting may please co-operate by making their own arrangements for stay at Delhi.

With regards 
Yours sincerely
(TKR Pillai) 
General Secretary

Reference is invited to this Department's O.M. of even No. dated 12.09.2013 vide which the software/ database in respect of officers of CSSS and CSCS were posted.

2. The Web-based system has since been hosted on an NIC server and is available at URL:http://www.cscms.nic.in.

3. As the Cadre Units are aware, the cadre management functions of CSSS at present are carried out by manual updation of data by keeping track of each and every development. This obviously is a cumbersome task as sometimes orders issued by the Ministries/ Departments in implementation of orders issued by this Department or otherwise are not received in time by CS-II Division and vice-versa. Absence of accurate updated information leads to delay in carrying out cadre management activities. The Web-Based Cadre Management System being launched will result in updation of the data on real time basis and would subsequently facilitate speedy decisions relating to cadre management functions. The primary objective behind the Web-Based Cadre Management System is, therefore, to reduce paper work and delay involved in cadre management of CSSS by shifting cadre management related activities online.

4. Officers can log in to the system with a default user ID which is a combination of 8 digit date of birth followed by first four letters of their names i.e. ddmmyyyyabcd. For instance, if the name and date of birth of the officer is Ramanujan and 10.02.1975 respectively, his user ID will be 10021975rama. The default password is apple123 which may be changed at the first login. User manual of the system is available at the Help tab after login to the system.

5. Availability of complete and accurate data in respect of the officers is indispensable for successful operation of the system. The basic available information in respect of the officers has been uploaded by this Division. Cadre Units and individual officers of CSSS are requested to log in to the system to check if the complete and up-to-date data is available in the system. Any discrepancy in this regard may immediately be brought to the notice of the Nodal Officer concerned and this Department for correction/ updation. Nodal officers designated in this regard would be responsible for the correctness of data in respect of officers of CSSS posted in their respective Ministry/Department. In case, the data in respect of any officer is not available in the system, the same should be forwarded to this Department without any further delay. Officers concerned are also requested to ensure that the data in respect of them is available in the system. In case, the complete and accurate data is not available in the system, any request for cadre clearance for deputation, training etc. may not be considered. Further, their names may also not be included in the zone of promotion. Once complete data is available in the system, this Department will issue the orders for posting, transfer and promotion through this system. Similarly, the Ministries/ Departments will issue the orders for a relieving/ joining, appointment, promotion etc though this system.

6. The Web-based System comprises of the following modules:

(i) Employee Information System : This module provides the basic information about the official. Cadre management activity carried out through the system automatically updates the database. This module generates various reports on the basis of the data viz, a) personal information report, b) RTP report, c) multi-information report, d) events report viz, retirement, deputation, VRS, etc. e) vacancy report, f) designation wise report etc.

(ii) Promotion/ Transfer Module : Promotion / transfer orders will be issued by this Division through this system also. Cadre units will indicate the relieving/ joining details of officers through the system immediately on relieving/ joining of the officer on the basis of the order issued by this Department.

(iii) Deputation Management System : Cadre clearance in respect of officers in the rank of PPS and above for deputation is granted by this Division. The officers will now also apply through this system for cadre clearance for deputation. Nodal Officers of the cadre units will forward the request online. Copy of the relevant portion of the advertisement should also be scanned and uploaded in the system. The scanned copy will be in pdf and jpeg formats and should not exceed 1MB. In case selected for deputation, the officer will be relieved through the deputation module of the system.

(iv) Voluntary Retirement : Cadre clearance for Voluntary Retirement in case of PPS and above level officers of CSSS is accorded by this Department. The cadre units are required to submit the proposal for voluntary retirement through the system.

(v) Vigilance Status : Vigilance clearance, whenever required, will be sought and obtained through this module. In respect of officers of the level of PPS and above, vigilance status will be updated both by the cadre units as well as AVD-I unit of this Department. Vigilance status in respect of officials upto PS level will be updated by the Cadre units.

(vi) Immovable Property Return : CSSS officers will be required to file the Immovable Property Return through the module. PPS and above level officers will be required to take a printout of the return submitted online, sign it and send the same to CS-II Division for record.

(vii) Mandatory Training : The officers for training will be nominated through this module. Their attendance and result will also be available in this system.

7. All the cadre units and the individual officers are requested to extend the necessary cooperation to make the web-based system successful in the interest of speedy, transparent and effective cadre management of CSSS.
