International Conference on RECENT ADVANCES IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (RAIT-2012) during 15-17 MARCH 2012 At Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad

About ISM

Indian School of Mines (ISM) was set up by Government of India and formally inaugurated by the Viceroy Lord Irvin on 9th December 1926 on the model of Royal School of Mines, London. ISM was granted autonomy and become a Deemed University under UGC Act, 1956. In 1996, the Institute came under financial and administrative control of MHRD, Govt. of India. In the year 1997, ISM was affiliated to the IIT JEE for admission to its B.Tech programmes. ISM is situated in the heart of the country’s prime coking coal belt, has a fully residential campus of its own consisting of a graceful blend of old world and new style buildings. The school today is making foray into the newer areas of academic endeavors in tune with the changing times. The school is located at a distance of 3 km from Dhanbad Railway Station. Dhanbad is well connected by railways with other important cities of the country like Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai etc. The nearest airports are Kolkata (250 km) and Ranchi (180 km).

About RAIT

Over the past few decades, we are witnessing remarkable advances and explosive growth of new technologies that are changing the world very fast. Information Technology (IT) sector is indeed playing a significant role in facing the technological challenges of the 21st century. The impact of IT on every sphere of human activities is stupendous these days. This field has been playing vital role in our economical, social and rural growth. The change in Information Technology is racing by the hour with a new idea emerging at every small span of time. The eastern region of our country has tremendous potential for the growth of mining, metallurgical and mineral industries. It is felt that there is a strong need to give a new dimension in our efforts to catch up the rapid strides being made in technology. Therefore, it has been thought in greater interest to bring together all IT/Computer Professionals, Researchers, Academicians, Industry People and valued users on a common platform to discuss the current state-of-art in IT and its role in the global scenario. With this thought, the Department of Computer Science & Engineering, ISM conducted two National Level Seminars on Recent Advances on Information Technology, namely “RAIT-2007” and “RAIT-2009” (sequel to RAIT-2007) in year 2007 and 2009 respectively. After the huge success of these two events, the department has decided to pull up RAIT series at global level to organize the 1st International Conference on “Recent Advances in Information Technology (RAIT-2012)”. The idea of this International Conference has been conceived with multi-disciplinary areas in IT, Computers, Electronics together with application areas of Mineral, Service, Telecom sectors that are strategically important for the overall economic growth of our country. The vision of the conference is to provide awareness about the recent advances in the Information and Communication technology, through tutorial, keynote addresses and pre-reviewed research paper presentations. The conference will also serve as an excellent platform for all the participants to share their views and ideas. Another endeavor of this conference is to collate and present the latest development in IT/Computer along with realistic assessment of the current status and trends.

Short Term Course on Vacuum Technology and Process Applications At Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur

Short Term Course on Vacuum Technology and Process Applications At Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur

INTRODUCTION

IIT Kharagpur is the first of its kind in the country and has been providing trained manpower for different
Industries/Research organizations through B.Tech, M.Tech and Ph.D programs. Specialized courses and
workshops are also being organized under Continuing Education Programme (CEP) to train personnel from
Industries/Universities. The institute has established a sophisticated Vacuum Teaching Laboratory in
Cryogenic Engineering Centre under Indo-German Collaboration Programme, to train technicians, engineers,
scientists and teachers working in the field of vacuum and its related areas. This laboratory houses several advanced vacuum equipment for production/measurement of vacuum and trouble shooting/application of vacuum systems. In addition, the institute has several high vacuum systems applied for metallurgical processes, MBE growth of thin films, microelectronic devices, Surface studies and Chemical analysis. Expertise/Facilities also exist on application of vacuum in chemical Engineering, food/pharmaceutical technology and biotechnology. These facilities are routinely used to solve technical problems faced by vacuum and related industries.

OBJECTIVES

Vacuum Technology has diversified applications in different areas of science and Engineering. These include
the major fields like Electronics, Metallurgical/ Chemical Processing, Food Processing, Space-Simulation, Nuclear Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Cryogenic systems. This has resulted in rapid development of many sophisticated vacuum instruments, pushing the range of vacuum to 10-12 Torr. To keep pace with this advancement in vacuum technology, it is absolutely necessary for the engineers/scientists/teachers of our country to get a first hand exposure to these modern vacuum equipment and their applications. Keeping this objective in mind, present course on Vacuum Technology and Process Applications is undertaken. The uniqueness of this course is that, in addition to classroom lectures, emphasis is given to the practical training in designing, handling and trouble shooting of variety of modern vacuum pumps, components, measuring systems, residual gas analyzers, leak detectors, vacuum furnaces, coating units, vacuum
dryers and other applications.

COURSE OUTLINE

(1) Introduction to basic concepts of vacuum.
(2) Application of vacuum in different processes.
(Metallurgical, electronic, chemical, electrical, space, nuclear, pharmaceutical, food and cryogenics)
(3) Production of medium and high vacuum by Rotary, Piston, Roots, Diffusion, steam jet ejectors, Water-ring, Dry membrane and Sorption pumps - their assembling and maintenance, pump-down characteristics.
(4) Ultra-high vacuum pumps and their pumping characteristics, Handling and maintenance of Turbo-
molecular, Ion and Cryopumps.
(5) Pressure measurement in vacuum systems using different primary and secondary gauges. Calibration/
maintenance of vacuum gauges.
(6) Residual gas analysis in vacuum systems.
(7) Design and Fabrication of vacuum chambers, flanges, couplings, and components for different applications.
(8) Gas flow in vacuum systems, conductance calculations and measurements on vacuum piping networks. Design of vacuum piping in process industries.
(9) Leak detection/trouble shooting/maintenance of vacuum systems, handling of mass spectrometric leak
detectors, degassing procedures.
(10) Handling of vacuum based furnaces/coating units/ driers and other process-systems.

Participants will also receive extensive practical training on above topics in the laboratories.

ELIGIBILITY

All practicing engineers/technicians working in private, public, government organizations/industries;
scientists/engineers from R&D establishments, college teachers are eligible to apply for participation.

LAST DATE FOR APPLICATION 10th Nov 2011

REGISTRATION FEE/COURSE MATERIALS/CERTIFICATE

Participants are required to pay Rs. 20,000/- per participant as the registration fee for this two-week
course. The fee is to be paid in advance by a demand draft in favor of "CEP-STC, IIT, Kharagpur".
Payable at Kharagpur.

Each registered participant will be provided with a detailed lecture notes on "VACUUM TECHNOLOGY & PROCESS APPLICATIONS" and registration materials/stationary. At the end of the course, the institute will issue a certificate.
