|| SHAKTI ||

Indian Institute of Technology, Madras to develop the first indigenous Indian industrial-grade processor.

The SHAKTI Processor Program, was started as an academic initiative back in 2014 by the Reconfigurable Intelligent Systems Engineering (RISE) group at IIT-Madras. It is completely Open-source.

Intel/ AMD and ARM have their own architectures or the language with which you communicate with the processor . Intel and AMD has something called X86 and ARM uses their own .

RISC-V is an open source instruction set architecture .

Suppose you go to buy a car , but you are forced to buy a truck along with it . If you want to buy a car , you have to also buy the truck . This is the problem with INTEL and ARM .

You can't choose what specific instructions you want to use . You have to buy them all . We can use RISC-V to make a custom chip design for our needs .

As a bonus many people responsible for RISC-V are also Indian

THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PROJECT

MADE UNDER ( MADE IN INDIA INITIATIVE)

IT CAN DRASTICALLY LOW THE COST OF MOBILE MADE IN INDIA
