My friend recently underwent a summer-internship at this c-dac(http://www.cdacindia.com/)Centre for Development of Advanced Computing, the govt institution responsible for the grid. he had some interesting news. People there spend time playing movies&songs on the Param supercomputer(c-net says - The latest Param crunches numbers at a speed of 100 gigaflops ). Hardly any research is carried out in these governmental institutions. and projects drag on for years together.
so we here don't expect to c the grad anytime in the near future
