CDAC all set to develop crucial technology indigenously 

PUNE: The Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (CDAC) is in the final stage of creating India’s first 64-bit quad core microprocessor to end the country’s dependence on imported microprocessors and assure better data security. The process to indigenously build the system under the Microprocessor Development Programme took 18 months at a cost of Rs85 crore. Director general of CDAC Hemant Darbari said, “This will be very important for the defence and space sector as it will ensure better security due to fewer chances of interference by outside elements. We have already realized the processes in the microprocessor and found desired results. This will now go in production mode.” [Readmore]
