Happen to meet Narendra Karmarkar Dr Narendra Karmarkar after a gap of 3 years or so ! One of his pictures I have from MITWPU days ! Rahul Vishwanath Karad Dr. Vishwanath Karad MITWPU https://lnkd.in/dB9sMixJ Karmarkar received his B.Tech in Electrical Engineering from IIT Bombay in 1978, MS from the California Institute of Technology in 1979,[3] and PhD in Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley in 1983 under the supervision of Richard M. Karp.[4] Karmarkar was a post-doctoral research fellow at IBM research (1983), Member of Technical Staff and fellow at Mathematical Sciences Research Center, AT&T Bell Laboratories (1983–1998), professor of mathematics at M.I.T. (1991), at Institute for Advanced study, Princeton (1996), and Homi Bhabha Chair Professor at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Mumbai from 1998 to 2005. He was the scientific advisor to the chairman of the TATA group (2006–2007). During this time, he was funded by Ratan Tata to scale-up the supercomputer he had designed and prototyped at TIFR. The scaled-up model ranked ahead of supercomputer in Japan at that time and achieved the best ranking India ever achieved in supercomputing. He was the founding director of Computational Research labs in Pune, where the scaling-up work was performed. He continues to work on his new architecture for supercomputing. Dr Karmarkar scored AIR 1 in IIT JEE ( Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, IIT Bombay - Shailesh J. Mehta School of Management). He was also President's Gold Medalist at IIT Bombay in 1978 ( This is awarded to students scores highest possible CGPA in the whole batch, across branches). He help built first super computer for Pentagon, AT&T. He was funded for RS 500 cr by Ratan Tata to build india's fastest ( also world's fastest super computer). He built world's 4 th fastest Supercomputer within 3 years and could essentially beat the legacy of CDAC which has been working for 30 plus years and could not even come close to his super computer's speed. Scientists working under him are heading super computing missions in few countries. Amazing personality, brilliant mind and zeal to do something big for the country, that is Dr. Narendra Karmarkar for you ! Avi Taware Amit Palkar COEP Technological University Prasad Khandekar MLOGICA Searce Inc Icertis EKA (abbreviation of Embedded Karmarkar Algorithm, also means the number One in Sanskrit[6]), is a supercomputer Design[edit] To enable design of new software, a previously proven hardware platform was needed. This was provided in the EKA system using 14,352[2] cores based on the Intel QuadCore Xeon processors. The primary interconnect is Infiband 4x DDR. EKA occupies about 4,000-square-foot (370 m2) area.[7] It was built using offshelf components from Hewlett-Packard, Mellanox and Voltaire Limited.[2] It was built within a short period of 6 weeks.[8]

Narendra Karmarkar is a living legend and an inspiration for people like me (the students of Maths). I have fascinated by his work, ever since I came across his interior point algorithm.

was part of the team trying to build HFT solution at CRL pune but not under him...know about his few eccentricities, his pune connection and I hail from his hostel h5 (what we call in Marathi as बादरायण संबंध!)
