stock market tutorial

I have gone through tutorials for how to enter into stock market. I need to start from zero. Everything is new ... But it gives opportunities for us to learn unknown area about money or market or financial system. We can play with money wisely as well as it increases our analyzing ability.

Shaastra 3rd day ( my second entry to shaastra)

This day some more encouraging because I could see open house ( means - all departments exhibit their labs and explain courses, tools they are using)

Labs :
Mechanical lab:
This was a good experience for me to mechanics. They have explained the power steering mechanism, testing of a braking system ... etc
Electrical Engineering :
They are some more active in IIT. I could see some good projects as well as posters of different technology like semiconductor, optics ..etc.

Projects:
1. Image processing , QPSK,noise addition, transmission and receiving
2. Sensing the pressure of a diaphragm (which is pulsating) inside a bucket of water,reading the data for plotting graph ,measuring diameter variation
3. Optics
4. Semiconductor technology explanation

companies sponsoring to them : benchmark Tenet

Computer Science:

I have seen
1. FPGA lab( Altera board, VHDL program burning, quartus( forgot name) software )
2. Robot show ( laptop controlled wheel chair)
3. one SRM student explained me one telos board
Actually the board was connected to USB of Linux Os CPU. Using 'make' command he burnt the program to the board. The program is to read temperature and humidity of the room. Interesting stuff is, the board was connected to similar four boards at different places by wireless. They were also reading temp and humidity. He set an apache and mysql to display the current and last 10 set of informations.

IBM person talk
cell processor, ibm semiconductor areas...etc

WANT 2 FLY AUTOMATED
This was a project demo of IITM students. The project designed by different (electronics and aerospace) department students in IIT. Their coordination,programming and mechanical skill is really amazing....

Shaastra 2008 (Second ENTRY to IITM)

IITM Shaastra 2008 was a good as well as bad experience to me. With out knowing the schedule ( was aware of FOSS conference ) and location of programs at 1 o clock , I entered in the IITM. But the programs were going on 2.5 km inside from IIT entrance gate. Walked through out the way, that had given chance to enjoy the beauty of IITM campus (even temples are there inside) .

Shaastra's beauty
Big big companies are sponsoring to this tech festival. L&T infotech,google,HSBC, GREDGE....etc. When I reached Elephant circle ( Gajendra circle), had seen big,big malls – one for Indian army, another for winergy ( wind to electric energy conversion) .
Talks, puzzles, conferences, workshops ( haven't seen ) all very standard programs.......

Shaastra's Bugs,
But I haven't seen the electronics, electrical,computer science or civil engineering IITM students projects or experiments exhibited in the ground. No project exhibition like mini projects or final year projects are less ( may because of first day ) or not there . Hardly you can see those stuffs. Then I understood, in that case GECT ECE's 'Quintessence ' or 'Insignia' (CS program) are giving more importance to exhibition of projects. In this particular thing the contribution of IITians to Shaatra was less. That is really really sad thing.

I think, IITians are more concentrating on entrepreneurship or business type stuffs... that also good . But IIT is famous because of technology, science and BRAIN.... not that much in business. But IIT can develop that too.... good. But only that, is bad.

Events participated.
Meanwhile got a chance to listen one RTI officer talk. That was really inspiring, as well as I wondered these type officers are there in Indian government. After having lunch and tea( very costly, don't know what the time was !!), wandered here and there without knowing what to do. Because, don't know the schedule... what program? which auditorium ? ...CLT,ICSR,DOMS.....etc. I enquired about the program schedule ... But I didn't get ( asked two places. First person direct me to registration people sitting place in IIT ground. Second person didn't care me that much). Really I feel bad.


FOSS Debian

Finally at the end of the day , I got FOSS Debian conference taken by Kapil ( http://www.imsc.res.in/~kapil/). Don't know more about his background. But he studied mathematics and now addicted in debian as well as in FOSS. He explained about patch and diff. I didn't get more( thats my problem).But he had started a Ubuntu vs Debian fight...funny moments.
The words that strike while listening.

And last when I looked into my watch, the time was 7.30pm. I knew that, “ I will miss the workshop on 'hacknight' in late night( 10.30pm to 'overnight' - no end time -) ' . No other way , have to return.
