IETE Student Chapter

Bangalore Institute of Technology, Department of Electronics and Communication engineering IETE Students Forum (ISF) conducted technical talk on Artificial Intelligence on 10th August 2019.
Ashika Nadiu gave the keynote speech on August 10 from the Defence Research and Development organization (DRDO) in Bangalore for Artificial Intelligence.
Ashika explained that in theory, AI is defined as machines doing what humans do. In Practice, AI refers to narrower tasks- such as pattern speech or image recognition – that were once thought to require human intelligence. Recent progress in computer science shows that machines can complete these narrower task as well as – or may be better than – humans.
Practical AI shines in those kinds of black-and-white situations, but programming AI and machine learning is still 99 percent human work. “The equation for AI success is taking a set of categories and an enormous amount of data and then feed those two inputs through an algorithm. That produces the models that do the work for us.

Technical Talk on Artificial Intelligence held on 10th August 2019

MTech. (VLSI Design and Embedded systems)

The semiconductor technology especially the VLSI Chip design has been developing at a very fast rate and today it has reached nanometer scale. The miniaturization and 3 D devices have enabled placing over one billion gates on a chip. This is drastically reduced the integrated circuit overall size and speed has tremendously increased. Advances in VLSI have resulted in a compact, highly reliable and fast electronics systems. The advances in VLSI have moved from integrated circuits to System on Chip. The designers have a very big challenge to design such a chip in highly competitive market. There is urgent need to produce quality engineers who will be able to create new chip ideas, design new VLSI chips and also embedded systems.

The program curriculum is aimed at VLSI and Embedded system design. The theoretical foundation is built through courses like Digital VLSI design, High speed VLSI design, Low power VLSI Design, Analog and mixed mode design, system on chip design. The practice includes the skill development in both front end & Back end designs, verification and testing. The course also offers strong knowledge and practical skills in developing embedded solutions on varied platforms such as FPGA, Advanced microcontrollers and processors. They learn to implement real time embedded systems. The designers gain practical knowledge through mini and major projects in both VLSI and Embedded system design domains.
