Preface
According to a famous quotation by Robyn Davidson, “the

most difficult part of an endeavor is taking the first step, making the first

decision”. CONVERGE is a first attempt of the center for converging

technologies to preserve the memories of all the events that have occurred

over the course of time since the department was established. This

magazine is an initiative to cherish the dried roses of the past between the

beautiful pages of the life story of the center.

To begin with, the booklet encloses the details of the

center and how it came into existence. To continue with, we have tried to jot

down all the academic happenings that have made an impact in our lives. The

magazine proceeds with the cultural activities that were performed in the

premises. But as we say, sports do not build character, they reveal it. The

episodes of the sports week have also been traced down the memory lane.

We have also tried to include and acknowledge all the renowned personalities

and scientists that have visited the center and contributed in some way to

the development going on here. The department has been remarked as the

nurture house of talent which could be well verified by the list of

achievements gathered by the students of the center. As we mentioned in

the very beginning the most difficult part of an endeavor is the first step,

thus the magazine concludes by giving a brief mention to all those who have

dared to take the step and made it successful.

 About the Centre

The world economy is undergoing a fundamental

structural change driven by the globalization of business on the
one hand and by the revolution in Information and
Communication Technology (ICT) on the other. World economy
may find a new equilibrium in the coming decades mainly
because of the emergence of a set of changes based on
synergies and confluence of Nanotechnology, Bioinformatics &
Biotechnology, Information & Communication Technology and
Cognitive & Neuroscience (NBIC).

The integration and synergy of these technologies

originate from nanoscale where the building blocks of matter
are established. Each of these technologies is currently
progressing at a rapid rate. The Center for Converging
Technologies (CCT) at the University of Rajasthan is
conceptualized as a centre to strengthen quality education and
to pursue high standard research in the frontier areas of NBIC
technologies so as to accelerate techno-economic
development.

The centre was established in the year 2006 with 120

students in its first batch. The course has specifically been
designed to meet the requirements for research in converging
technologies and educational activities.

The centre is first of its kind in India which is running a

course in converging technologies. The centre is an incredible
effort of the founding members from the University of
Rajasthan.

UGC team for XI five year plan visited CCT on 22nd July,
2008. Prof. Panjab Singh (Chairman of the visiting team and
former DG, ICAR), Prof. Somaya Raju (Osmania University),
Prof. S.C. Gupta (Delhi University) all appreciated the concept
of Converging Technologies and course structure of the CCT.
They spent about an hour at the centre and interacted with the
Director, faculty and students at CCT. They assured every
possible help from U.G.C. for this centre.

 Why? The concept? The idea
Director Sir With Hon’ble Chancellor & Vice chancellor
Converge 2009
As the world is expanding at a higher pace there is a need to
converge the various fields of technology for the betterment of
mankind. Several techniques must join together to increase human
performance, human health and to fasten the economic
development.
NBIC (nano-bio-info-cogno) convergence is a broad, cross-
cutting, emerging and timely opportunity of interest to individuals,
society and humanity in the long term, recommended that an R&D
initiative focusing on enhancing human performance should
become a national priority. NBIC convergence presents for human
performance improvements, including work efficiency, learning,
sensory and cognitive capabilities, communication, human-machine
interface, life extension, defense and human health. So with this
new concept, there was emergence of a centre “Centre for
Converging Technologies” which is accomplishing this very concept
of convergence.
The centre promotes the students to develop scientific
attitude and to prepare them to take up new challenges the world
economy is facing, so that they come up with innovative and mind-
boggling ideas. The primary aim of establishing the Centre for
Converging Technologies (CCT) is to produce high quality research in
the four streams – Nanotechnology, Bioinformatics and
Biotechnology, Information and Communication Technology,
Cognitive and Neuroscience so as to create new scientific
methodologies, engineering paradigms, and industrial products.
HIGHLIGHTS
The centre has an MoU for research collaborations, faculty and
student exchange with the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology
(RMIT) University, Melbourne, Australia.
This course has been cited as “This new technology education
program (of University of Rajasthan) may become a pattern for
other universities”, at the Portland International Conference on
Management of Engineering and Technology 2007(PICMET),
Portland, USA.
The former Hon’ble Chief Minister of Rajasthan Smt. Vasundhara
Raje has cited the centre as “CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE”.
The centre was granted two crore rupees in the annual
budget 2008 of the government of Rajasthan.

Academic events trip to KApoor Chand Kulish Smriti Van

As part of the academic session of 5th semester,

a trip was organized to biodiversity park
“Kulish Smriti Van”, Jaipur.

The trip was a successful venture under the

experienced and learned guidance of Prof S.L
Kothari, Prof Mishra and Prof. P.S Jain.

A vivid variety of plant species inhabit the park

,spread along the Jawaharlal Nehru Marg of
Jaipur. Spread in a very vast area this park or
biodiversity zone is a centre of study as well as
recreation.

Biodiversity forms a very essential part of our

lives and imagining, living separated from the
latter is no more than a nightmare. Biodiversity
can be appreciated only when field trips and
practical hands on experience are undertaken.
This trip was one such effort in realizing this
idea and strengthening the belief in its saying.

Trips and visits are always associated with

some wonderful memories to cherish. This trip
was successful in its aim of making the students
realize the vast abundance of variety of life
forms that prevail on this planet. So many
species of plants were available in this park, so
that remembering the names of all of them was
quite a difficult job.

Things are valued and cherished when achieved

after toil, hard work and pain. After a period of
control regulation and maturity came the season of
fun, frolic and entertainment.

Spring fiesta embodies the fresher’s party given by

the seniors to their lovely juniors.

The host seniors gave the guest juniors an ethnic

and traditional welcome. It was wonderful to see the
guests dressed in unique attire spanning from black
for boys and red for the girls.

The event kicked off with a game named paper

dance where the contestants were asked to dance
on a paper which folded with completion of each
round. Other exciting games like animal identity,
pony making for boys and applying stickers for girls
were held too.

After the interaction among the students the

teachers made their entry which marked the
flagging of cultural activities.

From ultimate dances to superb songs to wonderful

poems to ecstatic speeches, you name it and we had
it all.

The function was presided over by inspiring words

of motivation from the director Prof S.L Kothari and
other distinguished guests present. If this was not
enough the delicious Mumbai cuisine was there to
tickle our taste buds to their pinnacle.

The big smiles on the faces of our guests were a

clear indication of the events success. The air was
filled with a puff of satisfaction for the hosts and a
breeze of happiness for the juniors!!!!!!

CCTblog started in 2009 with a single bit of code to
enhance the typography of everyday writing and
with fewer users than you can count on your fingers
and toes. Since then it has grown to be the largest
self-hosted blogging system in the world, used on mil-
lions of sites and seen by tens of millions of people
every day
A blog is often a mixture of what is happening in a
person's life and what is happening on the Web, a
kind of hybrid diary/guide site, although there are
as many unique types of blogs as there are people.
People maintained blogs long before the term was
coined, but the trend gained momentum with the in-
troduction of automated published systems, most no- CCTblog Home page
tably Blogger at blogger.com. Control Structure of CCTBlog
Thousands of people use services such as Blogger to Port of data and channel
simplify and accelerate the publishing process. Blogs
are alternatively called web logs or weblogs. How-
ever, "blog" seems less likely to cause confusion, as
"web log" can also mean a server's log files.
A weblog, or simply a blog, is a website which contains
periodic, reverse chronologically ordered posts on a
common webpage. Such a web site would typically be
accessible to any Internet user. Part of the reason "blog"
was coined and commonly accepted into use is the fact that
in saying "blog", confusion with server log is avoided.
Blogs run from individual diaries to arms of political
campaigns, media programs and corporations, and from one
occasional author to having large communities of writers.
(source ... wikipedia)
 Full standards compliance — We have gone to great lengths to make sure every bit of
CCTBlog generated code is in full compliance with the standards of the W3C. This is impor-
tant not only for interoperability with today's browser but also for forward compatibility with
the tools of the next generation. Your web site is a beautiful thing, and you should demand
nothing less.
 No rebuilding — Changes you make to your templates or entries are reflected immediately
on your site, with no need for regenerating static pages.

 CCTBlog Pages — Pages allow you to manage non-blog content easily, so for example you Do something Different in
could have a static "About" page that you manage through CCTBlog. For an idea of how powerful cloud of people
this is, the entire CCTBlog.org site could be run off CCTBlog alone. (We don't for technical mir-
roring reasons.)

 CCTBlog Links -- Links allows you to create, maintain, and update any number of blogrolls
through your administration interface. This is much faster than calling an external blogroll man-
ager.

 Cross-blog communication tools— CCTBlog fully supports both the Trackback and Ping-

DONT QUIT……

When things go wrong as they sometimes

will,

When the funds are low and debts are high,

And you want smile but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest if u must but don’t you quit,

Life is queer with its twist and turns,

As every one of us sometimes learns,

And many a failure turns about,

When he might have won had he stuck it out;

Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,

You may succeed with another blow,

Success is failure turned inside out,

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,

And you never can tell how close you are,

It may be near when it seems so far;

So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit,

It’s when things seem worse,

PROBLEMS WITH ‘PAPER’ SYSTEM

Systems, which are largely dependent upon the paper , have a very poor speed and accuracy because,
 It take time to write data on paper,
 Circulation of data becomes very slow,
 Many people are involved to complete the circulation,
 It‟s very hard to find out the desired data or file from the labyrinth of files,
 Most of the time is consumed by the process which is related to the checking of answer sheets.
Accuracy largely depends upon this step. Subjective paper has its own drawbacks.

Suppose a panel of 10 teachers is going to check the answer sheets. For the same answer, every
teacher will have his own ideas and opinion. So different students will get different marks for the
same answer.
 DRAWBACKS OF SUBJECTIVE PAPER
No doubt that subjective pattern of paper improves the writing skills of the students, but it have some drawbacks too.
 Knowledge of depth can not be achieved.
 Students can estimate the paper.

THUMBS UP WITH ONLINE EXAMINATION

As described in the beginning, online examination is
one of the technologies which will help to replace the exist-
ing system of „paper‟.
Following are some points to thumbs up with online
examination.
 It will reduce the use of paper.
 This system is much more faster because here we
don‟t need to check the copies individually. Com-
puter will check the input answers by its own.
 After checking the inputs of all the students, result
will be ready by clicking just one button.
 Result can be prepared in less than one minute.
It‟s a revolutionary thought.
 Accuracy is very high in this case because a com-
puter can calculate more accurately than a hu-
man.
 Reliability is also much more high because of less
human interference. It‟s very hard to make unde-
sirable changes.
 It is very easy to maintain the database. User can
fetch the information in many ways in a short time.
 Reduces the work load of university.
 No need of Re-evaluation.

THUMBS UP WITH OBJECTIVE EXAMINATION

If the internal exams are based on objective pattern of the exam then there are many advantages of this scheme.
 Thorough knowledge of the subject is important to score in objective exams, so it will improve the knowledge of the
students. Students will learn hard to score in the exams because little knowledge is not enough to pass the exam.

OUR PROJECT
We will include the following points in our online examination project.
 A well defined way to conduct a healthy examination.

 A well defined algorithm for a smooth flow of data.

 During examination, it is important to deny the students not to access the internet. Student should not excess
the internet facilities. For this, a new internet browser is under construction. Some other parallel options are also
available.

 Random question paper will be distributed among the students. Sequence of questions will be different.

 Total marks obtained by every student will be stored separately.

 Result can be declared by one touch after the exam completed.

 THE TECHNO-POETS……
MET BY CHANCE
As we walk our path of life,
We meet people everyday.
Most are simply met by chance.
But, some are sent our way.
These become special friends
Whose bond we can't explain;
The ones who understand us
And share our joy and pain.
Their love contains no
boundaries.
So, even we are apart.
Their presence enhances us
With a warmth felt in the heart.
This love becomes a passageway,
When even the miles disappear.
And so, these friends, God sends
our way,
Remain forever near.

Biodiversity
There is a world outside earth, which awaits us with open arms.
Charles Darwin, an eminent naturalist has quoted “Only the
fittest shall survive”.
Imagine your favorite movie on a 1970 Black and white
television. Only 2 colors struggle to bring life to your favorite
stars .Everything only black or white, whether be it the
mountains, or the rivers, the trees or the flowers, the sunset or
the sunrise, the tiger or the fishes. It is just like suffering from
colorblindness in a world so beautiful, full of colors, colors and
colors everywhere.
The nature is so creative that even Pablo Picasso and
Michelangelo would find their art like a spec in the god’s ocean
of creativity.
Talking in the scientific language, biodiversity is the variety of
life forms that throng this blue planet. Biodiversity includes all
the animals all the plants, all the microbes rather all the living
organism. The creation of biodiversity by god is a move to break
the mono tonicity in life. The beautiful animals and flowering
plants found on this earth are a gift of god, a wonderful treat to
watch. Talking about India, it accounts for about 8.1% of the
biodiversity of the world. The distribution of these life forms
date back to 3.7 million years ago , when the planet earth was
formed. There were only a few categories of microorganisms
that sustained the harsh conditions prevalent. Slowly as the
temperature rose the atmosphere became oxidizing, more
important and complex live forms started arising. The world is
endowed with a number of life forms. Scientists estimate a
whooping 15 million species on earth, of which only 1.5 million
are known to us. The Himalayas in India, the tropical rain forest
of Africa, and the coral reef Australia are one of the exquisite
examples of biodiversity that prevail on earth.
Biodiversity has been of economic importance to mankind.
Various microorganisms are cultured in laboratories to extract
several important enzymes. Insulin which is a pivotal enzyme
for diabetics is now undergoing mass production in factories.
There are several species which are endemic i.e. found only in a
particular area or region. The Andaman and the Nicobar Islands
and the Lakshadweep are very good instances of endemic
species, probably because of the isolation from the
mainland.
Converge 2009
There are several species which are endemic i.e.
sachin dubey, vi sem
But to every good there associates a bad.
Economical considerations have led many selfish and poor
humans to engage in heinous acts like animal poaching and
cutting of woods causing deforestation. There are several
species facing a threat of extinction, thanks to the poaching
mentality.
This has led to the creation of many protected areas for the
conservation of animals and plants. India has 14 biosphere
reserves, located in almost every corner.
Two kinds of protection are provided to these animals, in-
situ and ex-situ. In-situ involves rearing the animals in their
natural habitats, which leads to maximum success rate. Ex-
situ protection is needed in certain areas, where captive
breeding is also performed. Similar areas have been
developed for protection of plants and their revival.
The government has taken several steps to keep the
biodiversity alive. Many rules and regulations have been
framed and a number of institutions formed. Several NGO’s
are also working with the aim to protect the biodiversity
and the diverse life forms.
Several germplasm conservation centers have sprung up to
maintain the endemic species of crops present. The wildlife
act of 1972 is such an attempt.
Apart from being an economical resource to humans,
biodiversity is a source of aesthetics as well. The serene and
beautiful organisms of the sea, the amazingly colored
flowers of the Himalayas, the extra beautiful birds instill an
amazing sense of joy and happiness in us.
Being a citizen of a species rich country and occupants of a
beautiful planet, it is not just our duty but a will and wish to
conserve the biodiversity that exists. Otherwise the
situation would worse than being blind with both eyes

A NEW DIRECTION TO LIFE

“Who knows when life takes new turn, new direction
and new dimension.”
After crossing the schooling phase of life, fire
burning inside, we were paving a way to shape our
future-to be a doctor, wearing white coat,
stethoscope in hand, sitting in a cabin, enjoying the
fruits of success.
But, you never know where life is destined to
take you, in the crowd we lost our identity and we
failed. Dreams were shattered and we were in a
condition of complete dilemma.
“Life is a tin of sardines-we’re all looking for
the key.”
As the time passed we understood the concept of
convergence and realized its importance. Now, we
were in the 6th semester standing at junction of

NBIC, soon becoming jack of all trades and
master of one.
Lastly, we want to heartily thank Centre

dreams come true and feel proud to be called as
“CCTian” and to be a part of such a dignified

DAFFODILS BY WILLWAM WORDSWORTH

I wandered lonely as a cloud

That float on high o’er vales and hills

When all at once, I saw a crowd,

A host of golden daffodils

Beside the lake,beneath the trees,

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine and twinkle

on the milky way,

They streteched in never ending line

Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance

Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The wave beside them danced,

But they outdid the sparkling
