SUMMARY:IISc ACM and ACM-W Student Chapter: Fun with Graphs and Networks by
  Dr. Sajal K. Das
DESCRIPTION:Fun with Graphs and Networks\n\n\n\nSpeaker : Dr. Sajal K. Das\
 nTitle : Fun with Graphs and Networks\nDate &amp\; Time : August 10\, 2025
  (Sunday)\, 11:00 AM\nVenue : # 102\, CDS Seminar Hall\n\n\n\nAbstract: Ne
 tworks are typically modeled as graphs to abstract a variety of real-life 
 applications\, such as wireless mobile networks\, sensor and IoT networks\
 , UAV or drone networks\, cyber-physical systems\, social and biological n
 etworks\, etc. This talk will focus on recreational graphs and networks fo
 r simple problems (e.g.\, chess games\, card shuffling\, Pascal’s triang
 le\, Towers of Hanoi) using fundamental concepts of graph theory and combi
 natorics. The audience will have “fun” while enjoying graph magic.\n\n
 Pre-requisite: Problem/puzzle solving\, creative\, and fun-loving mind\n\n
 Guest Speaker Bio: Dr. Sajal K. Das\, whose academic genealogy includes Th
 omas Alva Edison\, is Curators’ Distinguished Professor and Daniel St. C

 nd Technology\, USA. Earlier he served the US National Science Foundation 
 (NSF) as a Program Director and was a Distinguished Professor of CSE at th
 e University of Texas at Arlington. His interdisciplinary research spans C
 PS\, IoT\, drones\, sensor networks\, cybersecurity\, AI/ML\, data analyti
 cs\, mobile and pervasive computing\, graph theory and game theory with ap
 plications to smart environments (e.g.\, smart agriculture\, health\, ener
 gy\, transportation). He has made fundamental contributions to these areas
  and published extensively in top-tier journals and conferences. He has co
 authored 4 books and 5 US patents and directed over $25 million in funded 
 projects. His h-index is 104 with 45\,300+ citations. Dr. Das is the Edito

 s and numerous awards for teaching\, mentoring and research including IEEE
  Computer Society’s Technical Achievement Award\, and University of Miss
 ouri System President’s Award for Sustained Career Excellence. He has me
 ntored 12 postdocs\, 54 Ph.D. scholars\, 31 MS thesis and more than 45 und
 ergraduate research students. Dr. Das is a Distinguished alumnus of IISc w
 here he is currently the Infosys Visiting Chair Professor. He is a Fellow 
 of the IEEE\, National Academy of Inventors (NAI)\, and Asia-Pacific Artif
