About the Seminar
The Department of Electrical Engineering shares the work carried out by them on mathematical modeling, sensing, information processing and control that has made it feasible to realise efficient management of hundreds and thousands of networked irrigation channels in an integrated manner. The Department's methods are currently being deployed for testing and comparison by provincial irrigation departments and local water management institutes. In the wake of a worsening water crisis and in full realisation of the social and economic impacts of disruptive automation, the Department strives to find out the limits of 21st century engineering to save a complex 19th century irrigation system from total collapse.
