Nasim stunned the audience by his expertise and blissful presentation, we felt that we were in some TED Conference!, rather than presenting he inspired the audience and he delivered an eye opener and awakened us to realize the mammoth lag of our curriculum compared to the industrial race.
The Workshop aimed at presenting various improvisations made over the old mode of processor designing, and an overview and architecture of the UltraSPARC T2 processor was presented.
Project ideas for the students interested in this sector were also presented. The presentation included only 277 slides!!
We are planning to have the next version of this workshop which will provide hands on experience on how to
