'''Anupam''' is a series of supercomputers designed and developed by [[Bhabha Atomic Research Centre]] (BARC) for their internal usages. It is mainly used for molecular dynamical simulations, reactor physics, theoretical physics, computational chemistry, computational fluid dynamics, and finite element analysis.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://dae.nic.in/?q=node/115|title=Nuclear India|publisher=Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India|volume=35|issue=1–2|date=July–August 2001}}</ref> | '''Anupam''' is a series of supercomputers designed and developed by [[Bhabha Atomic Research Centre]] (BARC) for their internal usages.

BARC has started development of supercomputers under the ANUPAM project in 1991 and till date, has developed more than 20 different computer systems. All ANUPAM systems have employed parallel processing as the underlying philosophy and [[MIMD]] (Multiple Instruction Multiple Data) as the core architecture. BARC, being a multidisciplinary research organization, has a large pool of scientists and engineers, working in various aspects of nuclear science and technology and thus are involved in doing diverse nature of computations. | BARC has started development of supercomputers under the ANUPAM project in 1991 and till date, has developed more than 20 different computer systems.

To keep the gestation period short, the parallel computers were built with commercially available off-the-shelf components, with BARC's major contribution being in the areas of system integration, system engineering, system software development, application software development, fine tuning of the system and support to a diverse set of users. | To keep the gestation period short, the parallel computers were built with commercially available off-the-shelf components, with BARC's major contribution being in the areas of system integration, system engineering, system software development, application software development, fine tuning of the system and support to a diverse set of users. | ||
