Happy Independence Day!

It was an honour to meet Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw ji yesterday and be a part of this demo, where our multi institute team mostly made up of young students and staff demonstrated a call over our homegrown 5G base station and packet core.

[Ashwini Vaishnaw @AshwiniVaishnaw]

Aatmanirbhar 5G 🇮🇳

Successfully tested 5G call at IIT Madras. Entire end to end network is designed and developed in India.

Proud moment for the entire team. A small step, but hopefully will pave the way for indigenous 5G hardware and software in the future.

[Rajeev Chandrasekhar 🇮🇳 @RajeevRC_X]

First video call demonstrated at @iitmadras using indigenous #Atmanirbhar5G #Stack developed by multi-institutional 5G test bed project

Congratulations n Well done to the team

@vinayaksn We do not have a specific target. Anyone who wishes to develop their system building skills, even faculty, is welcome to participate. We have put out a rough set of topics so students can read and decide.

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

The computer systems group at IITB is organizing a 6-week online "bootcamp" this summer, followed by a 1-week in-person summer school, designed to provide hands-on training in building computer systems. Interested students and faculty can apply at:

My online NPTEL course is starting next week. Please spread the work to interested folks. The computer systems group at IITB is also planning a summer school and summer internships to those who clear the course.

@mnwsth You guys don’t use Paxos?

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

With due apologies to those who cannot read Telugu, sharing something I wrote recently…

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

@vinayaksn Vinayak, I do weave in a lot of topics from cloud computing into the course in the relevant parts, eg, fault tolerance, atomicity.

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

Hello! I am teaching a course titled "Design and Engineering of Computer Systems" on @nptelindia next semester (starting Jan 2022). The course serves as a broad introduction to computer systems. Please share with interested students. More info here: https://t.co/XCMXo7M5Wi

@nano_arun Too many reasons and nuances to discuss on a public forum!

[IIT Madras @iitmadras]

@varun_aggarwala Sure, high impact is a given. The distinction between short and long term is in terms of what can be used by industry right now vs. what will be useful in the future. Academia can afford to take this long term view.

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

I often hear lots of uninformed/exaggerated comments on academia, mostly because we as a society do not have enough clarity on what exact purpose academia does/does not/should/should not serve. This is a difficult question to answer because the job has no clear JD. (1/n)

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

@aditya_acharya1 Yes we definitely do not have enough supply to meet the demand for high quality technical education. We must work on it to scale up to our population. Online courses are a good way to fill the gap for now.

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

@AlienKashif Humanities is not my area of expertise so I won’t comment. This thread primarily deals with science/tech subjects.

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

I would like to end with the disclaimer that the views expressed here are purely personal. What works for me may not work for others. I am neither interested in, nor equipped to, designing a manifesto for all of academia (16/16)

[Mythili Vutukuru @MythiliVutukuru]

"Smart people should go into academia / industry." Such binaries are meaningless. Industry and academia are not competitors but complementary engines that together drive the economy. One is not in any way inferior to the other. People should simply do what they are good at (15/n)
