Software Engineering

We are trying to develop a Software Engineering Methodology dubbed as 3D Model. The benefit of this model is that it involves less number of task phases, applicable for a small team and allows quick delivery.

 

Health Engineering

Here we are developing a simple model to help ICU patients by using a smart monitoring system. This will reduce the ICU stay time and improve the cure process.

 

Education Data Mining

Here we are investigating the teaching learning process, specially in the area of higher education, by analyzing different types of education data. This aims to improve the learning capacity of students, and teaching capacity of teachers.

 

Bangla OCR

Here we worked on an array of topics to develop a Bangla OCR.

 

Nanomaterial Development

We work with development and characterization of nanomaterials. Our last work was to develop a simple arc discharge system to develop nanomaterials in a low cost way.
