Computer Courses, UNC at Chapel Hill:

Introduction to Programming , Foundation of Programming,

Introduction to WWW Programming , Advanced WWW Programming

Developed a user interface for a scientific program using CGI, PERL, and XML. My present project is to design and prepare more sophisticated and advanced generic user interface implementing JAVA and XML. The present development promises to lead to generally applicable method for any of a large number of existing and yet-to-be-written complex programs.

Developed and designed an application system for scientific and educational data. Developed Inter-atomic Potential Energy Functions for use in Solid State Shock and Detonation Simulations.

Designed and implemented scientific programs using FORTRAN. Obtained wave function of some diatomic molecules using MCI calculations and found their dipole transition moment etc. Published papers in reputed journal.
