JAMMU, Oct 28: Week long ICT based short term course on Optimization using MATLAB, by the Department of Mechanical Engineering, SMVDU, in collaboration with the NITTTR, Chandigarh, concluded today.
The course was an interdisciplinary course covering a wide range of participants not only from engineering background but also science, management etc. The course focused on the Optimization i.e. finding the ultimate or the best solution of the multivariate problems using a soft tool MATLAB.
The course was jointly coordinated by Er Yatheshth Anand, Astt Prof DoME, FoE, SMVDU and Dr Naveen Gondhi, Astt Prof, DoCSE, FoE, SMVDU, along with the NITTTR Chandigarh.
The course covered a wide range of topics pertaining to optimization. The discussions/lectures were delivered by some eminent professors and were focused on the linear programming problems; their formation and travelling salesman problems with a training emphasis on MATLAB. The hands on training on the Optimization tool and solving of Linear & Non- linear Problems with emphasis on intelligent techniques for engineering optimization using MATLAB was also part of the course.
