I.. actually dont know what wonderful day actually mean.. becuase all day are wonderful in one or other sense..
But I see, many people putting their best day so far. So I thought to monitor and I got it today a best day in recent times. I came to office and I took a small write up assignment (yeah in project work) thats too on Windows File System Filter Driver and you guess for what :-) for Sy.. System Requirements Specification document of a Security Software.. I completed it in 1 hour, it came up very well very fast.
Anyway, I went to IIIT Hyderabad and I listened to Mr. John E. Hopcroft. He talked on Future Directions in Computer Science. I could not get much of his details, but I was able enough to understand the problem and probable and definite "probablistic" and other solutions. But alas! I could not ask him a question. Well !!
His ppt link is http://www.cs.cornell.edu/jeh/. You will get it in Talks Sections.
1. Becuase John discussed too much maths in his presentation: One guy (senior old person) aksed him: so maths will continue to rock, and who doesnt know this much maths, he is OUT :-)
John replied: "Well.. Technology existed much before Science and Maths came into existence." and I got a feeling at that time: Technology is household but science and maths are not that much. We can see our mothers and household people to use things in a nice technical ways :-)
2. Somebody asked him something and used the word software. John told universities does talk about programs and not softwares.""
I got a feeling that: there are two things : university and industry.. whos bridging the gap...
Isnt it a wonderful day ! ! !
