Read about this non-conformist school created by Dr. Partha Algologic SchoLaR
...School of Logic and Reasoning...
Algologic puts its rich
experience and
involvement in the
software engineering industry, to train your prospects, clients and
employees. Algologic offers a wide range of
services related to
training and transfer of technology. Special packages can be designed,
based on your specific requirements, or you can choose from our
catalogue of ready-made course modules, and
customise them for your
specific requirments.

Training your clients at their site:
You do not have to divert your development personnel
unnecessarily, or disturb your production/ development schedules.
A large petrochemical complex in Indonesia used our services for
training their employees at their own site in East Kalimantan (Borneo).
Presentations on your behalf:
The ideal companion to your marketing efforts. It pays to use a
technically strong representative to support your marketing team. This
gives confidence to your clients, and brings them closer to you.
Regular training of your own employees:
is a must, for maintaining the competitive edge and
boosting employee morale. Training by a competent and qualified
outsider (i.e. Algologic), gives the much needed diversity of thought
and outlook.
One-day seminars at your
institution. Train your students and your staff.
Look here for details.
Courseware development and review:
We can build your courseware from scratch, or review and
update your existing courseware. Our excellent communication skills
and our domain knowledge make it possible for us to deliver products
which you and your trainees will appreciate forever. Our
courseware receives excellent appreciation from our clients and
trainees. Here is a review which appeared
in a famous newspaper from Pakistan. Algologic has created a very
rich collection of CDROM based courseware.
Take a look at this complete catalogue of
these CDROMs. You can also ask for an
evaluation copy of these CDROMs. Please write to us formally on your
company/institution letterhead.
Planning and course management :
We can undertake complete planning, coordination and
management of your courses (except marketing and promotion). You can
concentrate on more important and pressing tasks, by entrusting your
courses to an experienced and methodical person.
Web based training : Prof.
Partha, of
Algologic has launched a web based
"gurukul" for training on various subjects. Just take a look at
this mammoth initiative.
Algologic Scholar : Scholar --
School of Logic and Reasoning is a non-conformist school for
logic. It
helps you get an exposure to the wisdom of some of the world's
greatest philosophers and logicians. Helps you to think, reason, and
argue
logically.
Product-specific training
Want to train up your clients, prospects and employees on specific
products (developed by you or by others) ? Ask Algologic. We can work out
details by mutual consultations.
It is also possible to design customised courses suiting your
specific requirements
.
Ready made and tested modules
Ready made training modules make it very easy to build a training
package. These modules may be presented as stand alone courses,
or they may be mixed, to create a tailor made course, or they may be
made part of a larger course. These modules are constantly reviewed
and updated.
Our ready-made modules include (many more are being added):
All the following courses are done, only as CORPORATE TRAINING
courses. We do NOT conduct direct, individual, person-to-person, non-
corporate, courses.
Software engineering :
requirements specification, quantifiable design, formal methods,
verification & validation, programming languages (Ada, Prolog,
CLP-R, Forth). Based on several years of personal experience on these
subjects.
Petri nets : This versatile
tool is used in a wide variety of contexts. It has been used for
designing complex systems exhibiting asynchroneity and concurrency. It
is vry useful for desgning and anlysing real time systems, and
embedded systems, particularly for automation. Here is a specimen course announcement.
Real time systems : Petri
nets, temporal reasoning, concurrent programming, safety- critical
systems. Based on several lectures given at various
institutions.
Safety-critical systems :
Principles of safety in automation systems, particularly those which
involve computer controlled automation. Based on a successful and
highly appreciated course delivered at the Technical University of
Braunschweig, Germany.
Course description.
Algorithms : This subject is
of fundamental importance to computer scientists, and also to people
who have to solve real life problems mathematically. It is often
taught in a dry and abstract and tasteless fashion. Our approach makes
this topic, lively and interesting, without losing the underlying
mathematical rigour. We have conducted this course for several
institutions and for people with varied backgrounds.
Modelling and simulation :
The best approach to understanding complex processes and phenomena is
through mathematical modelling and simulation. This course gives a
generic approach to simulation as a tool, and highlights the strengths
and weaknesses of various approaches.
Tools for higher mathematics : Ganitalaya is a 3-day course where you get a panorama of various tools
related to higher mathematics.
Standards : Software
engineering standards, standards for formal methods, standards for
safety-critical systems, conformance.
Internet : A quick and short
overview. The course may be tailored to include the web and other
specific Internet based services.
World-Wide-Web : This course is an introduction to
the principles of design of "flawless" web pages.
The lecturer was
honoured by IEEE(USA)
with an international award for his excellent
contributions to web design. In addition to this,
Dr. Partha is the inventor of ideas like :
An informal look at formal methods :
One reason why "formal methods" have not caught up as much as
they should be, is the fact that they are rarely presented in a
coherent and complete fashion, to appeal to practicing software
engineers. This course breaks the conventional approach of presenting
formal methods. It is based on several years of actual experience in
the industry and several years of research and close association with
institutions specialising informal methods.
Course description.
Cryptography and PGP : is
not just for policemen and the army. Every one of us must know the
principles behind e-security and the tools like cryptography and PGP.
This is a course designed for all of us who have a sincere and above-
average concern for security.Course
description.
Appreciation course in French
Language and Culture: This is a short (20 days)
course, designed and conducted by Dr. Partha, who has extensive exposure to
French language and culture. Each day, the session will be
for 90 minutes.
You can get the outline and details of the above course
modules, by sending just a simple e- mail to Algologic.
Training the trainers
Want to build your own in-house team of trainers ? Here is an
effective
way to do that. Ask
Algologic. We can train your future trainers in various tools and
techniques related to technical training (like we did at TOTAL
Indonesie). We can also supervise training programs conducted by
you, so as to identify weak points and suggest solutions.
The courses can be conducted in English or in French, which
means that you can explore opportunities in French speaking countries
as well as in English speaking countries.
