The JuliaHub platform is designed to accelerate the development and deployment of Julia programs by technical users in a variety of engineering and computational disciplines. JuliaHub makes it easy for Julia users to explore the open source ecosystem to create, share and manage packages, to leverage parallel computing and GPUs for large-scale computations, and to serve Julia applications through web APIs. In addition to being a general purpose platform, JuliaHub also provides a suite of vertical domain-specific products that leverage this platform, including JuliaSim, Pumas, PumasQSP and Cedar. JuliaHub is cloud-first but is also available on-prem and even air-gapped.

Julia is a high-level, high-performance, dynamic, open-source language for numerical computing. It provides a sophisticated compiler, distributed parallel execution, numerical accuracy, and an extensive mathematical function library. Julia has thousands of open source contributors and a rich package ecosystem, containing thousands of packages.

India is sitting on a demographic dividend, expected to become the world’s youngest country by 2020 with 64 per cent of its population, roughly 800 million people, of working age. But our country cannot become a global powerhouse unless we resolve the contradictions and bridge the gaps that distort our society. The challenge before us is to enable every one of India’s 1.2 billion citizens to realize their aspirations. According to Nandan Nilekani and Viral Shah, the only way to do this is by using technology to radically reimagine government itself. Buy on Amazon: http://www.amazon.in/gp/product/0670087890

I designed the policies and the technology behind the Aadhaar-based payments systems for Government payments and the e-KYC platform. Aadhaar-based payments today form the backbone of India's government payments. In Rebooting India, I describe at length our experience in rolling out transformational technology projects in government.

Interactive Supercomputing designed Star-P, which aimed to make parallel scientific computing accessible for scientists and engineers. Interactive Supercomputing was acquired by Microsoft in 2009.
