The concept of globalization provided well rounded development on various fronts. In this context the overarching role of Mechanical, Electrical, Computer Science, Electronics, Civil, IT, Food Engineering, Business Administration, Applied & Agricultural Sciences is of prime importance. Demarcations among various engineering disciplines are often artificial. Therefore an integrated and interdisciplinary engineering approach is necessary. This conference is open to the researcher and industry professional of all the areas of engineering and technology. The conference provides a leading forum for sharing the original research contributions and practical development experiences among researchers. 

A one day workshop on Cloud Computing with Bluemix is held at RIMT, Mandi Gobindgarh in the Department of Computer Science & Engineering. Around 200 Students from CSE, IT & MCA participated in the workshop. Dr. Harsh Sadawarti, Campus Director, RIMT Group & Dr. Sushil Garg, Principal, RIMT MAEC welcomed Mr. Mani Madhukar, Technical Lead (North & East India), IBM Academic Initiative.  Mr. Vijayant Bansal, Chairman of RIMT Group appreciated the efforts of CSE Department and said that through this workshop students will learn about the latest technologies and able to compete at national level contests organized by IBM.

The event started with a theory session in which the expert gave a lecture on Cloud fundamentals and Bluemix architecture. IBM Bluemix is the newest cloud offering from IBM. It is a platform as a service offering based on the Cloud Foundry open source project that promises to deliver enterprise-level features and services that are easy to integrate into cloud applications. It enables organizations and developers to quickly and easily create, deploy, and manage applications on the cloud. Later on a hands-on practical session was conducted in which the participants individually worked on the IBM software and learnt to develop various cloud applications.

The Computer Science Students’ Club of Computer Science & Engineering Department has organized a “Technical Event” on 1stSeptember 2014.
