The RITK Mathematical Computing Research Team is cordially invited to an Open Lecture in Durres

Location: Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Information Technology, Universiteti "Aleksandër Moisiu", Durrës, Albania The Department of Mathematics at the Faculty of Information Technology, Universiteti "Aleksandër Moisiu" in Durrës, Albania, had the distinct privilege of hosting a thought-provoking open lecture titled “Hands-on Workshop on SciLab” today. The esteemed guest speaker for the event was Professor Debabrata Samanta from the Rochester Institute of Technology Kosovo (RITK). The focal point of the lecture was an in-depth exploration of the SciLab program, an opensource software designed for numerical calculations, with a particular focus on its application in engineering and scientific domains. The lecture attracted a diverse audience, including Computer Science students and faculty members, eager to delve into the versatile capabilities of SciLab      

Professor Debabrata Samanta was joined by his esteemed colleague, Professor Mimoza Polloshka, and two exceptional students, Dea Tahiraj and Dijar Hashani, from the Department of Computer and Information Technologies (CIT) at RITK. Together, they provided practical demonstrations, offering valuable insights and enriching the learning experience for attendees. The session commenced with an introduction by Professor Mimoza, setting the stage for the objectives of the workshop. Subsequently, Dr. Samanta conducted a comprehensive demonstration of seven projects utilizing SciLab, showcasing its diverse applications and highlighting its accessibility across various platforms, including GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows XP/Vista/7/8.

The workshop concluded with enlightening presentations by Dea Tahiraj and Dijar Hashani on Data Analysis in SciLab, wherein they elucidated the topic with compelling examples from discrete mathematics. Dea Tahiraj kicked off the session with a foundational overview of data analysis methodologies, followed by an in-depth exploration of three specific techniques. To solidify understanding, she incorporated illustrative examples showcasing Scilab's data analysis capabilities. Dijar Hashani then transitioned the focus to discrete mathematics within the Scilab environment. The workshop concluded with an interactive session led by Dijar Hashani, allowing students to gain hands-on experience applying the concepts of discrete mathematics using Scilab.

This event stands as a testament to the Faculty's unwavering commitment to fostering technology and innovation, underscoring its role in propelling the academic community towards new horizons of knowledge and discovery.
