    Applications of parallel computing
    (Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Moratuwa., 2012) Dassanayake, DMUC; De Silva, LYSG; Fernando, MDY; Jayawardana, DDSL; Ranatunga, AI; De Silva, R
    parallel computing is one of the main solutions for the newly arising computational problems, implementations of parallelism are multi-core systems. To improve the performance in specific usage such as matrix multiplication we have to analyse the algorithms behind it. Markov's chains and memetic algorithms are two algorithmic implementations of parallel programming. Data mining is used in AI development, but can be efficiently used to optimize parallel computing as well.

    Riyadisi - Intelligent driver monitoring system
    (2014-06-26) Darshana, KUGS; Fernando, MDY; Jayawadena, SS; Wickramanayake, SKK
    Road accidents have become a major problem that causes nearly 1.3 million people die and 25-50 million people injured or disabled in each year all around the world. It has been calculated that 10% to 20% of traffic accidents with dead drivers are caused by driver inattention. Drowsiness and distraction of drivers have become the main causes for driver inattention. Drowsiness is something unavoidable and out of control of the driver. Sleepiness increases reaction time and generates the decreased vigilance level, alertness and concentration. Hence the quality of decision making may be affected. Reduced attention and raised reaction time increase the probability of road accidents. Distractions such as looking away, using mobile phone or navigation systems are also obviously cause to make driver loses his/ her focus.
