IBM OPEN POWER
VISION
To reinvent the thought cycle of students for application based learning
MISSION
Artificial enables creation of intelligent machines and through the establishment of COE for AI our endeavor is to create Intelligent humans
ABOUT THE COMPANY & LAB
AI Lab will play a major role in the research and development commercial and industrial development of emerging AI technologies. The AI Lab will include IBM and other corporate sponsors, coupled with open source technologies viz., NVIDIA, Ubuntu, Redhat, Power9 and Xilinx to accelerate results.
There is a strong need for research and development activity in these domains:
1. Encouraging academic-industry partnerships.
2. Cross-disciplinary and collaborative research.
3. Making AI accessible to non-technical business students.
4. Enabling faculty-technologist interaction and learning.
5. Enabling startups, ISVs and industries to use the platform to innovate in ways that improve the World condition.
The IBM OPENpower Lab at NHCE uses IBM POWER9 processor based Server aims to meet the challenging needs of industry, academia, and society in the world of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) are identified, AI based hardware and or software systems and support from IBM.
