About us
The Centre for Computational and Data Sciences (CCDS) at Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur (IIT Kharagpur) has been established in March 2017 with a mandate to promote next-generation interdisciplinary research and teaching activities that involve state-of-the-art high-performance computing (HPC) platforms. IIT Kharagpur is going to get a supercomputing facility of 1 Peta-flop computing power under the National Supercomputing Mission (NSM), Govt. of India. This facility will be built, managed, and operated under CCDS to provide large-scale computational support to the researchers of IIT Kharagpur, who are engaged in research activities in diverse areas of national importance. This facility will accelerate and evolve the level of research currently being done with manifold improvement in output and efficiency. The research activities of CCDS will address building hardware and software for HPC systems, Data Management, Analytics, Visualizations, etc, along with promoting cutting-edge research in different HPC application domains that include but are not limited to Computational Biology, Drug Design, Atmospheric Modeling, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Geo-Scientific Computations, Modeling and Mining of Heterogeneous Information Network, Multi-scale Modeling of Novel Materials, Computational Chemistry, Computational Physics, Cryptanalysis, Numerical Mathematics, Computational Mechanics, Non-equilibrium Molecular Dynamics, etc.

Researchers from Centre for Computational and Data Sciences (CCDS), the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) Department of IIT Kharagpur, and KIIT, Odisha, developed an app by integrating AI-based techniques such as deep learning and federated learning. The resulting web application, named CerviSpectraDiag, is inexpensive and capable of detecting early-stage cervical cancer from spectral data on low-power devices such as smartphones or tablets. The app features two core components—one that classifies spectral scans, and another that generates explanations or diagnostic insights. The app rapidly generates diagnostic reports in English or Hindi that any patient can understand. It also maintains a patient’s privacy, offering an alternative to standard biopsies that are painful and time-consuming. This research has been published in IEEE Transactions on Computational Social Systems (Q1-ranked, SCIE and Scopus indexed, Impact Factor: 4.9). You can view the publication here: https://lnkd.in/gWnaTFxT. The prestigious Nature India also featured the work in its August Research Spotlight.

We were delighted to host a one-day workshop on "Introduction to Supercomputer Facility" for students and faculty members of Bagnan College, Howrah, on 05.05.2025 at the Centre for Computational and Data Sciences, IIT Kharagpur. The session aimed to provide an overview of high-performance computing and the functioning of our supercomputing infrastructure. It was a pleasure to interact with 30 enthusiastic participants, including both students and faculty members, who actively engaged in the discussions and hands-on demonstrations. Alongside the workshop, we arranged an academic tour of Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur , giving the participants a glimpse into the vibrant campus life, research facilities, and the legacy of India’s premier institute. A big thank you to Dr. Soumen Roy and Prof. Kaberi Dey from Bagnan College for their support and encouragement throughout the visit. Your presence added great value to the day’s activities. We look forward to more such academic collaborations in the future! #supercomputing #workshop #HPC #NSM #CCDS #bagnancollege #iitkharagpur #academictour #Outreach #education #FutureOfComputing
