Jeebus, it was a rhetorical question. Do I have to explain the definition of that too?

Yes my bad, I miswrote GLONASS instead of GAGAN, since I was describing India's navigation systems roadmap. IRNSS will be a fallback. The accuracy is 20 metres, which makes it unsuitable for civilian sector. For military, they will have to increase its accuracy too, so I'm unsure how much of a...

How can you question the ability of an organization which posts 1 billion dollars in profit in a time of recession? How many organizations are able to achieve that? Why should Wipro start product development when it can achieve the same results (realize profits) without any investment? Its...

I don't assume anything. I was merely curious as to why you were rolling down the floor when its quite obvious that the organization in question has the monetary resources to start 10 independent microprocessor projects in a year. What attitude are you talking about? I've worked in Indian...

India is making its OS for use in military equipment. It's not designed for grandparents.

What's so funny? The average design cost of a microprocessor is around $100 million. Let's say Wipro wants to design a microprocessor. Wipro's annual profit is around 45000 million Rs, which comes to around 1 billion dollars. Wipro will be able to easily fund multiple microprocessor projects the...

GLONASS is for civilian sector which relies on NAVSTAR (GPS signals) for private sector navigation in the near term. IRNSS is for military (a completely new system fully controlled by India) which is regional (India and encircling 2000 km around it) to make the military independent of foreign...

A new kernel is not required for a different processor architecture, unless the processor is not a von-neumann machine. You just need a new cross-compiler.
