As May is upon us, anticipation for graduation is increasing for seniors who are ready to leave Amity University behind and enter the “real world”. This is no exception for senior Abhijeet. With the end of the school year approaching fast, Abhijeet is excited to be graduating and is starting to look towards the future.

Abhijeet entered Amity as a freshman in 2006. His involvement in clubs at Amity reflects what he was taught as an Electronics Engineer.  One of the best experiences of college for his came through an event that he organized himself. It was an event in ASET's techfest 'ACT'. “We filled up the room we had and it was a really awesome moment. It was the first big event I’ve organized,” Abhijeet said.

Abhijeet took a lot of trips during Break to shimla , jammu along with his friends.When he isn’t donating his time to help others, Abhijeet likes to relax and read poetry. He also really likes food and going out to eat. When asked what the perfect day would be for him, Abhijeet gave an answer quite expected. “Sunny with some water nearby and fireworks. A good day with friends, oh and world peace.” Abhijeet said.

Now that graduation is around the corner, Abhijeet is taking time to reflect on his time at Amity. “I don’t feel like I’m graduating. It will be an interesting transition.” Abhijeet said.

He had this advice for freshers that are unsure what to think of the college experience. “Get involved and find out what you care about. Being involved benefits your community and yourself” he said, “Your college experience is what you make it. Whether you get involved with community service, Greek Life etc.. It’s really about self exploration.”

Students like me who find sitting in class and listening to boring lectures an arduous job may consider this post as the 'Treasure of Kuber'.

Here is the list of all video lectures by NPTEL.

During my studies in Amity, many students used to ask me the same question

"How we can publish a research paper?"

 Many of students who will apply for further studies in technical courses will discover that relevant published research papers help during admission process. They also help in getting a good job. So here I am trying to post some guidelines that you can follow …

1.How to Start

The first step for publishing a technical paper is to figure out your technical area of interest. Make sure that you had carried out enough studies on basics of that topic. Then you have you to update yourself with the ongoing technical happenings in your chosen field. You can do this by
1) Reading and searching a lot of technical papers. There are a lot of journals and IEEE papers floating around in net. (That is why I used to tell students to Join IEEE)
2) Go to one or more conferences, listen carefully to the best talks, and find out what people are thinking about.
3)Find a problem,look for solution

"Claytronics" is an emerging field of engineering concerning reconfigurable nanoscale robots ('claytronic atoms', or catoms) designed to form much larger scale machines or mechanisms. Also known as "programmable matter", the catoms will be sub-millimeter computers that will eventually have the ability to move around, communicate with each others, change color, and electrostatically connect to other catoms to form different shapes. The forms made up of catoms could morph into nearly any object, even replicas of human beings for virtual meetings.

Claytronics technology is currently being researched by Professor Seth Goldstein and Professor Todd C. Mowry at Carnegie Mellon University, which is where the term was coined. According to Carnegie Mellon's Synthetic Reality Project personnel, claytronics are described as "An ensemble of material that contains sufficient local computation, actuation, storage, energy, sensing, and communication" which can be programmed to form interesting dynamic shapes and configurations.

This is part of IEEE Spectrum's Special Report: 25 Microchips That Shook the World.

In microchip design, as in life, small things sometimes add up to big things. Dream up a clever microcircuit, get it sculpted in a sliver of silicon, and your little creation may unleash a technological revolution. It happened with the Intel 8088 microprocessor. And the Mostek MK4096 4-kilobit DRAM. And the Texas Instruments TMS32010 digital signal processor.

Among the many great chips that have emerged from fabs during the half-century reign of the integrated circuit, a small group stands out. Their designs proved so cutting-edge, so out of the box, so ahead of their time, that we are left groping for more technology clichés to describe them. Suffice it to say that they gave us the technology that made our brief, otherwise tedious existence in this universe worth living.
