Abstract

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) project is realising a state-of-the-art and most sensitive radio telescope. The telescopes are coming up in two radio-quiet zones, the Western Australian and South African deserts. Pulsar and fast-transient search is a significant Program planned with SKA that needs enormous real-time computing to reduce about 60 petabytes of data from several hundred pulsar search beams of the telescopes. High-performance computing solutions with 10 Peta-operations per second processing capabilities are being constructed, exploiting the state-of-the-art CPU, GPUS and FPGA accelerators. This talk will provide a detailed outline of this transient search Program, highlighting the time and Fourier domain search pipelines, challenges, and current status.
