  7. Two Exceptional Achievements: Made Worldwide Impact • Manindra Agrawal, CSE Dept. IIT-Kanpur • Discovered a polynomial time deterministic algorithm to test if an input number is prime or not. • Solved a long standing problem on polynomial test for primality • Two B.Tech. students form IITK were involved with this work.

  8. Two Exceptional Achievements … CorDECT • Ashok Jhunjhunwala EE Dept. IIT-Madras • Developed Wireless local loop (WLL) technology -- CorDECT • Incubated companies which markets this products worldwide -- particularly in developing countries (Africa, Middle East) • Extensively deployed in rural India • Various services on the CorDECT pipe Rural ATM

  25. Manpower and Output

  26. John F. Welch “India is a developing country but it is a developed country as far as its intellectual infrastructure is concerned. We get the highest Intellectual capital per dollar” Many multinationals, which include Microsoft, Motorola, Lucent, Google, IBM, TI, Analog Devices, Philips, Sony, Erickson, HP, Intel, Nokia etc. have already opened their R&D centers in the country. These centers are over and above their regular development centers.

  27. Riardo Giacconi, a Nobel Laureate in Physics, “A scientist is like a painter. Michelangelo became a great artist, because he had been given a wall to paint. My wall was given to me by the United States.” Many thanks Now such walls are emerging in India and we are seeing a ray of reverse migration
