Seminar on “Constraints in Implementing Intelligent Systems in Real-time”

A seminar on “Constraints in Implementing Intelligent Systems in Real-time” was organized on 3 January'2009 at 10:00 am at the Conference Hall of the Center for Excellence in the Department of Computer Science, University of Dhaka.The speaker of the seminar was Dr. Alamgir Hossain, senior lecturer in the Department of Computing at the University of Bradford, UK. He discussed the complexity of some of the computationally demanding intelligent systems for business, engineering and systems biology related applications. These included the constraints of evolutionary optimization, uncertainty and large data manipulation/processing issues in implementing intelligent systems in real-time. He then demonstrated some alternative solutions of these complex computational issues. These included how one can exploit the power of learning algorithms (artificial intelligence or adaptive filter) and/or dividing a problem into smaller sub-problems to achieve a solution in implementing an intelligent system in real-time. Finally, some of the research results were presented to demonstrate the merits and capabilities of the proposed solutions.

Dr. Alamgir is an active member of modeling, optimization, scheduling and intelligent control (MOSAIC) research group, Department of Computing, School of Informatics, University of Bradford, UK. Prior to this he has held academic position at Sheffield University (as visiting research fellow), Sheffield Hallam University (as senior Lecturer) and University of Dhaka (as Chairman & Associate Professor of the Computer Science & Engineering Department).
