PU CIT Faculty member delivered an Invited Talk in International IEEE Conference


Punjab University College of Information Technology Assistant Professor, Dr. Syed Waqar ul Qounain has been invited at IEEE International Conference on Communication, Computing and Digital Systems (C-CODE) 2017 to deliver an invited talk on “Science through Computational Modeling and Simulation” last week.

In this talk Dr. Waqar has emphasized that our world is a complex system which is over time becoming more complex place to live and to understand this complex system in its totality, is no more a task of human mind alone. He further added that we need computational techniques to represent such a complex system and the computational power to simulate its behavior for different scenarios to come. In this talk he briefed that how the computational modeling and simulation (CMS) has helped us to engage in a new form of thought experiment and to create new kind of theories which has enhanced the scientific methods through computational rigor. He stated that the CMS is helping in representing and augmenting our understanding of the world around us and this has changed the way we conduct science in general.
