Richard M. Felder is Hoechst Celanese Professor Emeritus of Chemical Engineering at North Carolina State University. He is coauthor of Elementary Principles of Chemical Processes (4th Edition, Wiley, 2015), which has been used as the text for the introductory chemical engineering course by roughly 90% of American chemical engineering departments and at many international institutions, and coauthor of Teaching and Learning STEM: A Practical Guide (https://educationdesignsinc.com/book/) (Jossey-Bass, 2016). He has also authored or coauthored four book chapters and over 300 papers on chemical process engineering and engineering education and presented hundreds of invited talks, workshops, and short courses in both categories at conferences and to industrial and research institutions and universities throughout the United States and abroad. He co-founded the American Society for Engineering Education National Effective Teaching Institute in 1991 and co-directed it from 1991 through 2015.

  Effective Mixed Methods Research

Assoc. Prof. Dr Norma Alias, UTM
Increasingly large data sets are being difficult for researchers and algorithm providers. It is not easy to handle because involving huge simulation and governing the complex modelling. In addition, they realized that, the specific hardware and software should be used to support the large scale simulation. However, by attending this workshop, the researchers will learn the concepts and skill on how to solve big data problem of a brand challenge application. Many opportunities for enhancing the parallel algorithm, domain and function decomposition, mapping strategy of large scale simulation, message passing paradigm, high performance computing architecture will be described. We believe, the technical skills increase in a hands-on training on some HPC software or communication protocol software such as PVM, CUDA and Matlab Distributed Computing System (MDCS). The aims of this workshop is to build the understanding about big data simulation, how to handle the simulation and how to use the HPC software. This workshop will divide into two parts.
