COMPUTATIONAL ENGINEERING & NETWORKING @ AMRITA

Centre of Excellence in Computational Engineering & Networking (CEN), is playing an important role for the future of the scientific discovery process and engineering design. The CEN labs are currently conducting research in many innovative areas of engineering, working towards developing a massively parallel Partial Differential Equation (PDE) solver; a massively parallel design and analysis platform for flow visualization and fluid dynamics; reliable truss topology optimizer; setting up a full fledged Bio informatics lab.

CEN developed an automatic super-computer clustering toolkit. CEN organized a six day long Workshop on High Performance Computing in December 2004. CEN developed massively Parallel Interior Point Method Based Linear Programming Solver which can take millions of variables and constraints A parallel computing research team at CEN has developed a high performance computing cluster based on Linux desktops. This cluster is named Sudhamani. Dr.K.P. Soman and Dr.K.I. Ramachandran of CEN recently authored a book on Wavelet which was published by Prentice-Hall of India.
