Agile Methods | Institute of Information Technology

The Agile Method is a particular approach to project management that is utilized in software development.
This method assists teams in responding to the unpredictability of constructing software. It uses incremental, iterative work sequences that are commonly known as sprints.
The aim of agile methods is to reduce overheads in the software process (e.g. by limiting documentation) and to be able to respond quickly to changing requirements without excessive rework.

Must Read Student Professor Conversation - DON’T BLAME | AISSMS Institute of Information Technology

The 21^st century is witnessing the most amazing technological revolution but as a parent and as a Professor.
I am also seeing a stark change in the behavioral patterns of the kids/students of this century. On one hand where the kids/students’ are extremely tech-savvy and are easily acclimatizing to the new technological trends on a daily basis; they are however lacking some basic life skills which we as humans must possess.

Is Peer Pressure Is Harmful or Beneficial To an Individual | AISSMS Polytechnic

Someone does something because of peer pressure, it means that they do it because of other people in their group do it. The thoughts, behavior, tastes of fashion, music, television and other walks of life are often seen having a deep impact on the living of an individual. We may tend to get influenced by the lifestyles of our peer.

The changing ways of life, of our peers, often forces us to change our ways of looking at life and leading it.

 It’s a human tendency to do what the crowd does. The few have the courage to oppose the peer pressure and be the own selves rather than being one among the lot. Peer pressure is affecting most of us, both, positively and negatively.

Peer pressure is useful since it makes us more alert, we can improve own-self and attentive to the happenings around us even the small ones that we might look over but actually be helpful for our knowledge and development.

BASALT FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE INVESTIGATION | AISSMS POLYTECHNIC

The construction industry is always trying to find new, better and economical material to manufacture the new product, which is very beneficial to the industry. Today a significant growth is observed in the manufacture of composite material. With this also the energy conservation, corrosion risk, and sustainability is important when a product is changed or the new product is manufactured. 

Such as the basalt fiber (BF) and basalt rebars are used in reinforced concrete, which is one of the high-performance non-metallic fibers made from basalt rock melted at high temperature. By considering the most effective mechanical properties of basalt fiber there are various applications such as civil engineering structures where RCC members required sufficient stability against the loads and stresses developed into the structures due to the seasonal effects.  Basalt fiber is used to improve the strength of concrete structures.

In short, basalt fiber reinforced concrete offers more characteristics such as light weight, good fire resistance and strength. In future it is very beneficial for construction industry. Many applications of basalt fiber are residential, industrial, highway and bridges etc.

Role of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in future: A step towards make in India

           Nanotechnology is an ability to control and manipulate individual atoms and molecules.  In everyday life, the food we eat, the clothes we wear, the buildings and houses we live in, even our own bodies is made up of atoms. But is impossible to see an atom with the naked eye or with the microscopes we use in the laboratory. We need nanoscopes or microscopes with nanoscales to see the objects with atomic dimensions.

          Nanoworld of science and nanotechnology is a wide and multidisciplinary area of research and development that has been growing worldwide in last few years. The word ‘nano’ means ’dwarf’ in Greek. One nano is one billionth of a meter.

Career Pathways To Lead Students Towards Success | AISSMS Institute of Information Technology

While entering into college level after class X, the students should be made aware of different stream lines they can enter into for their graduation and post-graduation. They can opt for engineering or technology (B.E or B.Tech), design(B. Des, Bachelor of Fine, creative, visual arts or interior designing), architecture (B. Arch) if they opt Science stream (PCM group) after class XII. 

Those choosing Science stream (PCMB) have technology as well as medical science options open. Science (PCB group) can opt for pure medical related disciplines such as MBBS, dental surgeon, Homeopathy, Ayurveda, nursing, pharmacy and many more wide varieties of specializations (MBBS, BDS, BHMS, BAMS, B. Sc (Nursing) B. Pharm). 

Now, if someone enters commerce, arts or business management then there are options like (B. Com, B.A, BBA, BBM, BBS etc.). Also, now-a-days students are preferring courses like mass communication, social work, journalism, gaming art and design, photography or career options in different performing arts.

There are many more career pathways but every field demands creativity, hard work, self-learning abilities, sincere efforts and patience which will definitely lead the students towards success in the career they perceive!

Importance of Patient Adherence | AISSMS College Of Pharmacy

Patient adherence is the extent to which the patient follows the instructions of his physician.

The reasons patients don’t take or discontinue their medicines is multifactorial and depends on the disease and drug regimen. Hence our approach too has to be multipronged rather than one size fits all. First we need to ask, has the patient been adequately counselled on the disease process? Has he understood what the consequences of not taking his medication

eg. Discontinuing TB treatment midway could result in him developing resistance to the medicines and it will not be effective next time.
