PROJECT – HOPE Dapp
Most of the charity organisations lack transparency and the supervision to them is difficult to achieve, which has a negative impact on the willingness of the people to donate. Blockchain provides a new solution for the charity system in terms of technology. This paper proposed a charity system based on blockchain technology and expounds the design pattern, architecture and operational process of the platform. Some core functions of the charity platform have been realised and verified on Ethereum in this article. We hope to increase the transparency of charities to enhance the public’s trust in charities and promote the development of philanthropy by blockchain-based charity system.

FDP IN MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATIONS FOR MACHINE LEARNING
VENUE: SREE BUDDHA COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING, PATTOOR
DATE: 22/03/2021 – 26/03/2021
COORDINATORS: Ms. Lakshmi S., AP, Dept. of CSE
Ms. Asha S., AP, Dept. of Mathematics & Basic Sciences
ABOUT THE FDP:
The FDP is specially designed to give a mathematical insight on the learning process in machine learning and deep learning. In recent timesthere has been a massiveincrease in applications based on deep learning. However there has been no clarity on how these architectures learn volumes of data taken from multidimensional space.When such architectures reach saturation, there is a need to look at newer learning algorithms and architectures. This is possible only if the mathematical aspects are clearly understood. This FDP will suit all those who want to do good research in areas using machine learning and deep learning. This course will present the basic mathematical foundations that are essential for machine learning.
The FDP is jointly organized by the Department of Computer Science and Engineering and Department of Mathematics and Basic Sciences, SBCE, Pattoor and financially sponsored by APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University, Thiruvananthapuram.

PGIF Program organized by CSE Department
Computer Science & Engineering department organized a Technical workshop on free and open source software (FOSS) lab in association with Post Graduate interdisciplinary forum on 29th March and April 3rd 2017 at, 1:00 pm, at Digital Library, Library Block. PG Coordinator Ms. Minu Lalitha Madhavu addressed the students and introduced the faculty members handling the sessions.
The session started at 1:05pm.Ms Soumya Murali, Asst Professor computer science and engineering Department gave an introductory session of FOSS.Mr Jayaprakash,Harware and network engineer SBCE gave a practical session on Open source software tools.Ms. Disha. Librarian SBCE gave an awareness on e-resources. For the free and open source software lab all the systems in the digital library was installed with Ubuntu.
Free and open-source software (FOSS) is computer software that can be classified as both free software and open-source software.That is, anyone is freely licensed to use, copy, study, and change the software in any way, and the source code is openly shared so that people are encouraged to voluntarily improve the design of the software. This is in contrast to proprietary software, where the software is under restrictive copyright and the source code is usually hidden from the users.
The benefits of using FOSS include decreasing software costs, increasing security and stability (especially in regard to malware), protecting privacy, and giving users more control over their own hardware. Free, open-source operating systems such as Linux and descendants of BSD are widely utilized today, powering millions of servers, desktops, smart phones (e.g. Android), and other devices. Free software licenses and open-source licenses are used by many software packages
