Back to LonelinessThe title says it all, I am all screwed today, feeling like going mad, breaking glasses, hitting myself with wall, etc and etc. However, for your information I won't be doing any of the things mentioned. Comon, its my regular behaviour. Sometimes I like my weirdness, the crazyness to spoil the evironment, the ability to think about inappropriate activities, I think I am falling in love with myself. But then, when i am out of my crazy state, I hate myself for wasting so much of time. There is so much to study, understand, invent, dicover, explore and teach with so little time.
Turning back the pages of life, i find lots of time has already been wasted. People have used me for their benefit, well, atleast I was useful to people. But what hurts me most is that fact that they didn't use me to the fullest. Anyhow, I dont want to get emotional here and reveal whole story. The point is story is so boring and I really want my blog to be interesting and weird, not routine. Memories play an important role in your life, ask your parents how wonderful they felt when you first walked. Certainly, I can say parents will feel more happy looking at their child walking for the first time than Americans felt when Neil Armstrong walked on moon. That's the emotions of parents for you. I feel really bad of myself when I fight with my parents on stupid things. Sometimes so much fustration creeps into my mind that I get uncontrollable, I argue with Ammijaan for small small things, and now-a-days even at Abbajaan. And when i get cooled down, I really feel bad for using my brain power in a real wrong way. Atleast, I shouldn't use it when I argue with my parents. Few days back, due to my excesive arguments, Ammijaan cried, i really felt bad at myself. There is no bigger sin than hurting parents, I made a resolution that I will exponentially reduce my arguments. See, I am not a super-human being to come to change myself like they show in movies. Some of my arguments are valid and my parents accept those, however, there are no solutions for those arguments. Too much of science in my life has handicapped my life.
My real happiness lies in understanding sceince and sharing it with people. I want people to discuss advance sceince, need people to collaborate but I find myself isolated and lonely. I stay awake alnight in persuit of ideas that change the world, that add to the science and in the morning i get so excited to share it with people and I find no one. Even if I find someone to share, his/her knowledge in sceince is too less to even understand what I am saying. The problem is that I have gone too deep into science and its very difficult to find people who can really understand me. My brain just breakdown and this the time when i argue with my parents. Why I am i so isolated in my life ? why wasn't I brought up like normal people ? Why do I keep awake myself whole night and strain my body ?.... I just want to be normal, normal like all other people ... They might not achieve anything spectacular in life but atleast they are happy. Why is that there is no damn happiness in my life ?...
But when I think deeply about this, I ask myself .. Does Abubakr's happiness lies in money? Does Abubakr believes in materialistic pleasures ? Doesn't Abubakr want a name in the history of Human race ? ... That's when I pump myself. I am distinctly ahead of others. I am not among you who believe that happiness lies in money, materialistic pleasures, worldly love... My happiness lies in understanding the Universe. Everytime I think about Universe I get closer to God. I Know, My God is watching my hardwork, my persistent effort in knowing his creation. Until his Hand is over my head, no one can cause me any harm.
Finite State Machine Approach for Web Performance TestingEffective performance of Web based systems impacts the profitability of the enterprises that makes use of them. The real time application of the web based system hugely depends on the behavior of the user. During the performance test time the biggest challenge is to generate the synthetic workload mimicking the request patterns of real time users. Any mismatch between the synthetic workload compared to live user can significantly corrupts the performance test results. However, it is very difficult to know precisely what a real workload’s characteristics will be, performance testing methodology must provide the flexibility to conduct a controlled sensitivity analysis on the characterizations of the workload model’s attributes.
One such method to minimize the mismatch is usage of Finite State Machines (FSM) to represent the user scenarios for the web performance testing. A FSM consists of sets of states, inputs and outputs. Upon applying a set of inputs results in transition of one state to another generating a set of outputs. Further to make the environment more of “live type”, a probabilistic FSM model can be built upon Statistical models such as Markov’s Chain. Each state of the Markov’s Chain represents the different request types supported by the Web application. The navigation of the user from different sessions within the web application is modeled through the Transition states of Probabilistic FSM. The coolest thing about Probabilistic FSM is that the each transition is associated with a probability. The Sum of all the state’s outgoing transitions equals to one. The transition probability represents the likelihood of a user choosing a particular transition from a state from all the allowed transitions. Traversing through the Markov chain, a trace of synthetic workload can be created for performance testing. The basic constraint of Probabilistic FSM is their complex nature. Building a FSM requires a certain effort on the part of the performance tester to specify the application model. As different web applications can have different scenarios, building a generalized FSM is difficult. However, for business sensitive applications accurate performance testing is of high need. It is advantageous to go for a thorough performance testing with more accurate synthetic workload. In such scenarios, implementing FSM type methodology would be useful.

Adaptation and Animals...I consider writing scientific papers as one of the most noble thing that you can do in your lifetime. Have you ever asked yourself, what's the major difference between humans and animals ? We all might give different answers to this question, but the essense of all the answers remains same.
{For the sake of this discussion, I am considering Animals and Humans as two different entities} Humans have an higher ability to modify the environment they live compared to other animals. Now, I am sure, my answer should have surprised you because it was not the same that you were thinking. Don't hurry, I can give you reasons to justify my answer but i want you to think about it. Just to make you easier, one such example "Humans conquered the darkness of night with the innovation of "lights". Have you seen any other animal that innovated an artificial system for conquering darkness ?" Now, that brings us to one major question. Should we modify the environment we live around or should we adapt to it ? Almost all animals have a higher tendency to adapt to the environment or become extinct. But, its the humans that have got a great tendency to modify/change the environment they live in, such that it becomes easier,safe and pleasurable to sustain. You don't see an animal building dams, you don't see an animals trying to make spaceships but you do find Humans spending lot of effort in innovating, discovering things that are not inbuilt in the environment. Ofcourse, even animals do try to innovate in some way or the other but human have a higher tendency to do it and that's what makes the difference. Hence, I can say that the ability of humans to innovate and modify the environment differentiates them from the millions of animals. Innovation is harmful when it modifies the environment to cause destruction, however most of the innovations that have been done have benefited humans. When I use the term "environment", its not just confined to the "enivronment that surrounds us", it means every possible thing that exists around us. In that generic sense, I can include stars, planets, galaxies and every possible thing that exists in this universe as part of our environment. Actually, the definition for environment depends upon the thoughts of the individual. For a school kid, the environment is all that happens in the school, for the Prime Minister of the nature, the environment is all the things that occur in the nation. And so on, the scope and size of environment increases. Undoubtedly, for a scientist, the environment is whole Universe. Everything that's existing in the universe should be part of his/her environment.
In our day to day life, we come acrosss hundreds of modifications that we have made to the exisiting environment. Today we are using computers, refrigerators, wireless phones, watches, etc all represent the modifications we have made to the environment. If you probe deeper into this scenario, you will find Humans have been making modifications ever since their evolution. Today we wear clothes, that's again a modification. Have you seen any species other than humans that wears all the well designed clothes ? That's the reason I say animals have higher tendency to adapt to the environment whereas humans have higher tendency to modify. Probably, questions that are puzzling across your brain at the moment is, why am I saying all this ? How is it related to papers ? Be pateint, I will answer them all. Every modification that humans have been making requires innovation of some kind. From Wheels to Nuclear Bombs, there have been people who have spend their creativity in innovating and modifying the environment around us. Even though I have been using the term "humans" all through out this discussion, not every human has contributed to the modifications. In fact, most of the humans have just waited for others to innovate. Ofcourse, we can easily equate them to animals. Nonetheless, we are the most innovative species created by God and we have to keep up that reputation forever. And the only way to keep up that reputation is to continuously innovate and change the environment around us. If we fail to do so then there isn’t much difference between humans and animals. I have heard many people saying that “it’s not possible for everyone to do innovation”. My friends you are absolutely wrong. When you claim that everybody is equal then why can’t everyone do innovation? Innovation can be anything, it can be just a simple thing in your day to day life which doesn’t significantly impact others or it can be a discovery of lifetime. But a Human has to do innovations of some kind in this lifetime just to prove that he has lived his/her life like a human rather than an animal. Now you might ask me, what’s innovation? My friends, I again reiterate, it could be ‘anything’. My mom makes a special chicken dishes for me which you won’t find anywhere. I call that as innovation as it’s impacting my life and those dishes are not found anywhere. At this point, I would also like to make it clear, I am not calling the dishes as innovation as my mom has an ability to create some hypothetical taste that pleases me, but the fact that “they are not found anywhere”. The recipe used in it is “invented” by my mom. So that makes an INNOVATION. In other words, innovation is about making something theoretical or practical which was so far unknown to mankind. Every time we find a new thing, the human race goes one step away from being an animal whereas every second you waste in adapting to existing environment; you are marching one step closer towards being an animal. Thoughts to build on...'Thoughts' that human brain generates are not only mysterious but sometimes very misleading as well. Your whole character is based upon the thoughts produced by your brains continiously. Everything that you do, everything that you say is nothing but the implementation of some of your the thoughts. The mystery of thoughts is that you are never sure what thought are you going to produce the next moment. However, based on your character one can guess the range of thoughts you can generate. Scientifically we can say that "Character" is similar to a complex system that generates future outputs based upon "past inputs". Human characters are not as simple as we visualize it to be. If the characters were simple, our lifes wouldn't have been full of emotions. The simpler the character is, the lesser the emotions are. I don't know why I am sounding so philosophical today. But let me not deviate from the topic at least today, my general tendency is to start from origin and end up at infinity !!
People judge your character based upon your "Public thoughts". Public thoughts are the actions that you have done in your life publicly (known to people). However, it is misleading to believe that actual character of a person is based upon so called public thoughts. Human brain generates millions of "private thoughts". Some of these thoughts we reveal it before the people we are close with and many we confine it to ourselves. The actual character of a person is based upon the combination of both public thoughts and private thoughts. Every decision that you make, every future step that you make is based upon the public thoughts and private thoughts. Let's do this scientifically since i am best at science.
Public Character ( Cp) = F ( public thoughts)
Actual Character ( C ) = F ( public thoughts, private thoughts)
Where 'F' is the judging function. Judging function is again dependent on the person who is judging.
The above equation can also be represented as
Public Character of X in Y's point of view ( Cpxy) = F( public thoughts of X, public thoughts of Y, private thoughts of Y)
Y can never determine the actual character of X unless Y = X.
"You are the best judge of yourselves". And yes, finally we have the scientific proof for that. It is impossible for 'Y' to know all the private thoughts of 'X'. Private thoughts are continious and even if you decide to share it with some person, the only way this could happen is that "you keep on saying simultaneously all the thoughts generated by your brain" to that person. Considering all the natural scenarios, it is impossible for you to simultaneously speek out all your thoughts to some other person day and night. By the way, those crazy love birds who at this moment are doubting this fact, let me say you "private thoughts" are generated even when you are 1 sec old.
Well, you can see from above that things are getting complex, but that's how complex we all are. We know people around us by their public thoughts and we aren't sure what there private thoughts can be. That's the reason so many people get misunderstandings, breakups and all sorts of crazy things happen between them. I am not a Love Guru, let me tell you, when you say you know a person, think again and if you are still not convinced that you are wrong, just have a look at the mathamatical proof given above.
Life is not about knowing a person, life is about making yourselves known to others. Wow, i just realised something special. If i can't be a scientist, I can be a good philosopher!! Once the people know you more, they will be able to get close to knowing your actual character. That way, there is a possibility of strong relationships. Anyhow, like many people say, relationships are based upon trust and faith. Sometimes trust and faith by others can modify your private thoughts and you might become a real good human being.
COMPACT DISCRETE THEORY OF UNIVERSEStephen Hawking in his book "A BRIEF HISTORY OF TIME" mentions a strange fact about the thinking of the people before twentieth century as " It is interesting reflection on the general climate of thought before the twentieth century that no one had suggested that the universe was expanding or contracting." I am not referring here about the expanding universe but I am pointing at the thinking of people. This was the time when infinite static model failed and yet people tried to justify by assuming illogical phenomenon of repulsive gravity. This particular statement holds good even today. In order to explain present day quantum physics the "people" have gone crazy enough to predict ten to eleven dimensions. They are just trying to complicate things by involving various parameters and dimensions. But God created this universe so that every ordinary person can understand it and appreciate the glorious creation. Here I have tried to bring forward a whole new way of understanding universe with simple language and common sense. If you spare few minutes and read this paper it will change your thinking.
In real number system we consider there exists infinite number of numbers present between two numbers. This is something that requires no proof. But applying real numbers to physical matter or to any system existing in universe doesn't hold good. I am nor a mathematician neither a Professor but I can justify the above statement using a bit of common sense. Can a point (for example (x, y, z )) exists in a continuous coordinating system ? This question might sound totally ridiculous but that very question has given me sleepless nights. After a lot of effort I came to a conclusion that it doesn't exist. A point can exist only in a discrete system. In order to explain this lets consider a simple experiment. Suppose you have an rod of length "L" and you have to cut it in pieces as small as possible. If I ask you how much time will it take you would say few hours or for a large rod few days. And that is where you make an mistake. The answer is for any valve of "L" it would take infinite time. If you don't agree with me then this thought experiment will convince you. Imagine you were able to do pieces of millimeter order, then still you haven't reached the smallest length. So you again start cutting and somehow you reached nanometer order, then also you haven't reached smallest length. So you again start cutting it and even you reach fermi level there still exists smallest length because you have assumed real number system holds good for measuring length. And if you go on further reaching smaller length dimensions of order 10^(-20), 10^(-25), 10^(-30), 10^(-40) and further, and further then also real number system says there exists smaller dimensions. So you can never cut a piece to a smallest dimension even if you are given infinite time. And you know the smallest dimension is nothing but a point, and it has been proved that point can never obtained. If you are not convinced with that then lets take another example you are given a graph sheet and asked to mark a point 2.5cm away from origin along X-axis. This would be the easiest graph you would ever plot but I would say not even the greatest mathematician will be able to plot this. The answer is simple, it is impossible to have a scale which would measure exactly 2.5cm from origin. And if such a scale exists then the manufacturer has to spend infinite amount of time for checking that the scale exactly reads 2.5000000000000000000000........................................... and these zeros continue up to infinity. Now you will say me somewhere you have to make an approximation, lets check up to 20 zeros after 2.5 and consider it as exact 2.5cm. And this is where the concept of discreteness gets introduced. Unknowingly we are considering length is discrete and dimensions are discrete. Is integration a continuous process ? Most of you may think Integration a continuous process but it is not. While performing integration we are assuming that the variable quantity doesn't vary over a interval say "dx" or "dy" and we consider this interval to be tending to zero and exactly here we are bringing discreteness in disguise. Now, let me introduce you to a brand new theory called as "COMPACT DISCRETE THEORY OF UNIVERSE" which deals with discreteness of various fundamental quantities. Here are the two postulates :
( Natural Constants number system includes all natural constants like charge of an electron, Value of pie, Napier's constant (e) etc)
A little boy's storyOnce upon a time there was a little boy who had never seen the outside world other than his house. His parents taught him everything they could and finally they decided to send him to the school. So the little boy goes to a school... there for the first time he finds lots of other kids running, shouting, laughing, playing...... The boy stares them but he doesn't know how to play, he doesn't know what is fun all about ... he is just confused looking at the other kids. Days pass by and neither did he try to talk with anyone nor did the other kids notice about him. He was alone, isolated and confused. One day it rained heavily and the school ground got filled with rain water. All the kids were dancing in the water and making noise except the little boy. Suddenly he saw some boys were making paper ships and there was a ship race. This excited him, he went near to that place to have a closer look. But the other boys didn't allow him to play since he didn't have his own paper ship. After reaching home the little boy learns the art of making ships from his mother and makes lot of ships. Next day, once again all the boys gather to have ship race... the little boy proudly joins the other boys with around 25 ships. Unfortunately all his paper ships sink and he loses the race. Other boys make fun of him since he had most number of ships in the race and still he lost. After a dissapointing first race, the little boy decides to do something innovative. He makes a water proof ship with polythene packets. He uses the jersey milk packets cover made up of plastic to make ships. This time he wins the race... the other boys started talking to him. Everyday he made better ships and he won the race every day. He was the undisputed winner...........until the water got dried. No more the kids gathered to have ship race...no more the other boys were talking to him ... once agian he was alone. He waited for the rain ... he waited for the ship race.....neither did it rain nor did anyone asked him to play another game. That little boy was me.... Mohammed Abubakr and I am still waiting for that rain. My life is still the same... alone, isolated and confused. When I win something, I see lot of people around me but when there is nothing going on in my life... I find no one. Neither did anyone tried to understand me nor did I try to understand people. But then, life has always been like my ships ... innovative and unbeatable. I am thankful to the Almighty God for all the luck and mercy he has blessed me, without which I wouldn't have survived in this untruthful world. Why Indian Astronomy got Screwed up ?Yes, that's the big question "Why Indian Astronomy got Screwed up ?" Any early thoughts in your mind ? Well, lets just analyze the situation.
Screwed up ? Oh, yeah, it really got scrwed up. Let me give you a small example and I will then relate it to Indian Astronomy. "Imagine, there is a student who scored exellent marks till 10th class and after that the student starts failing in all the exams. Don't you call the student has screwed up his/her life ?" That's exactly thing happened with Indian Astronomy. Around 1500 years back, their were some remarkable discoveries done by "few noted" astronomers in India. Then suddenly, there was a huge null, and if you look at the scenario deeply, the null is still going on. What were the reasons for Indian Astronomy getting screwed up ?
1. Some might argue that Indians were under foriegn rulers and it badly affected astronomy. This arguement is absolutely incorrect. Astronomy doesn't require money, it requires ideas, persistent effort and will to understand the universe. The foriegn rulers hardly had any role to play in declining the ideas of Indian Astronomers. In my opinion, Indian Astronomers failed to capitalize the situation. I mean, they had more chances of making their research global. They could have easily presented their ideas before wide audiance. However, they totally failed.
2. One of the major reason for "indian astronomy getting screwed up" is the "involvement of religious sentiments" in astronomy. One of the major hurdle before Indian Astronomers was to convince the people about wrong beliefs exsiting in thier religions. Believe it or not, people in those days believed in all kind of strange stories, for example "sun gets swallowed by a devil during solar ecllipse". And it is even surprizing to note that "there are still millions of people in India who believe in those stories". The astronomers were forced to give up their research by the religious heads. This situation was also faced by Galileo and other European Astronomers. However, the European astronomers succedded in overcoming the religious powers and Indian astronomers failed. We have to accept this fact.
3. The next reason is "Lack of good talent". Yes, even though Indian has been a very populated country, there is huge scarecity of good talent here. Generally, Indians don't accept this fact but its ture and they can't deny it. Indian never had a big pool of scientists, there were few big names but the number is too less for a large country. There were no Newtons, Einsteins born here and even if one such kind takes birth, the people will never recognize his/her efforts. If you find my statements odd, I can give you enough examples. Let me do that in future blogs.
4. Internal conficts such as Caste System was major hurdle before Indian Astronomers. Many sects of Indian people were not allowed to have basic education because they belonged to lower caste. This was the harsh reality of Indian society. In few regions of Indian, this situation still prevails. It is a great shame on the educated people of those times to have behaved in the above said manner.
5. Too much of belief in the past days of glory affected Indian astronomy badly. Past is past, people know you by what you are today and will be in future. Indians failed to understand this and paid a heavy price. Even today I find many people who contribute nothing to future and sing slogans of past.
Being a scientistBeing a scientist is such an odd choice, you don't get to enjoy much. Look at cricketers, damn within couple of years they get to date the most beautiful girls. Damn Dhoni is dating Deepika Padukone, I really envy him. Why don't people realize that "Scientists" put far more hardwork than any of the cricketers. But somehow girls get impressed by cricketers, singers,dancers, etc. Damn, i really feel bad for scientists. Whole life they spend in isolations for the inventions, discoveries and finally the people like Dhoni enjoy the fruit.
Imagine, if scientists would have not discovered telivision, Dhoni woun't have done any Advertizements and I am sure Deepika wouldn't have dated him then. It's all because of scientists... and yet the poor scientists remain single and isolated. You won't find a rock concert without mikes, loud speakers and lots of electronics, yet you don't find anyone appreciating those. Comon, there have been many sceintists who have spend their life time in inventing "amplifiers, noice removers, power circuits, mike systems, etc and no one gives credit to them.
Its the greatness of scientists that they dedicate their whole life in designing, inventings things for the benefit of people. And the disgraceful people never respect scientists in their life time. They are forced to live on megre saleries, force to bear critisizms, force to give up all pleasures in life and finally what do they get ? People don't even bother to respect them in their life time. Sometimes I feel scientists should never discover a vaccine for AIDS, anyhow they hardly have sex in their life, there is very minute chances that they ever get AIDS in life. Le the people die of AIDS. Its only the stupid people who accquire AIDS through precautionless sex. Anyhow, we scientists are most kind hearted people on this Planet earth, we will still decidate our lives in finding the vaccines. One of the other reason for it is that the stupid people do not have minimum common sense to not have kids when they have AIDS and we(scientists) don't want innocent kids to die because of the mistakes committed by their parents.
Scientists have benefited immensely for the developement of human race otherwise humans would have been competing with monkeys for bananas.

Date: 12-02-2006 Mohd Abubakr Signature Circular form of Periodic TableStudy of atomic elements reveals the presence of a systematic structure within the atom. The chemical behavior of the atom is determined by the count of the electrons present in it and more precisely the valence electrons. This internal electronic structure is theoretically represented in the form of electronic configuration of the element. Every element has its unique electronic configuration. The presence of similarities and symmetries in electronic configuration of different atomic elements leads to the classification of elements into families.
In 1869 Russian Chemist Mandeleeff arranged the elements in a form of table by considering atomic weight as the periodicity parameter. From the relationship embodied in the table, he predicted the existence as well as the properties of the elements then unknown. However in 1913 Henry Moseley identified that chemical and physical properties of the elements are more dependent on the number of electrons rather than atomic weight. He referred the number of electrons in an element as atomic number and modified the basis of classification of elements from atomic weight to atomic number. With theoretical advances such as electronic configuration of elements it was established that atomic number is the basis of periodicity.
The Modern form of Periodic table is based on the electronic configuration of the elements with priority to the valence electrons. It consists of 18 vertical columns called as groups and 7 horizontal rows called as periods. Also keeping in mind the importance of the outer shell electrons the table is divided into blocks namely s, p and d blocks. With all the advantages over Mandeleeff’s Periodic Table the Modern form of periodic table has gained wide popularity as standard representation of elements. Various aspects that favor Modern Periodic table are size, chemical behavior, atomic radius, ionization energy, electron affinity, electro negativity metallic character, binding energies, diagonal relationships etc.
The major disadvantage of the Modern Periodic table is its shape itself. Rectangular arrangement of elements puts constraints in describing the properties of the elements such as shape, atomic structure, nucleus, etc. With the developments in the nucleon shell model it is far more informative to have a complete periodic table showing both nucleon as well as electronic structure.
To incorporate more and more amount of properties in a form of arrangement of elements a new circular of periodic table is put forward. The aim of this circular form of table is make a student understand the atomic structure and its properties along side the periodic table. This table does include all the properties of the Modern Periodic table meanwhile adding further advantages. Silent features of Circular Form of Periodic Table:
Quantum mechanics...Well, I am starting this new blog entry after a long time and as usual i have absolutely no idea what i am eventually going to write. There are like millions things that i would like to share with you people but when i start writing I find nothing to write. I have to overcome this problem as soon as possible. Before I forget to mention, recently I wrote a paper called "On Dimensional Analysis Redundancy in set of fundamental quantities and Proposal of a New Set", its available on Arxiv. Here is the link http://arxiv.org/abs/0710.3483. Do check out and let me know what you have understood.
Now that I have been confirmed at Microsoft, I was thinking of how to proceed further about my research. Life is such a comprimise, you always have to sort out priorities. Ofcourse, research is my top priority but since I am paided at Microsoft, I have to benefit them as well. Oflate, I am reading a lot about Quantum Mechanics, its a strange field of science, No matter how much you read, it still remains as mysterious as it was at the begining. There is lot of thrill to know how the nature behaves at the sub-atomic levels. However, QM can just be wrong or would be requiring a major modification as its incompatible with General theory of Relativity. The problem is that QM doesn't support Gravity, though the effective gravity at sub-atomic level is almost negligible. However, at large distances Gravity plays a major role. Due to this, QM is not applicable at Large distances. Some crazy guys believe that String theory is going to replace QM/Relativity as a complete theory but I have my own doubths about string theory. I somehow feel, the universe is far more simple than string theory interprets it to be. 26 Dimensions reduced to 10 dimensions, phew... that's too much for my brain to take. Actually, the string theoriest arrived at 26 dimensions due to Dirac's equation. Anyhow, at this point let not get into it. We can debate on String theory some other time, i might invite Newton as well for the discussion.
The major problem with physics is that it has become too complicated for a common man to understand. Especially the young students find it very different to find and visualize what they study in their books, plus there is huge scarcity of professors and books that explain modern physics theories in a understandable way. Too much of maths is too bad for number of followers, that was the mantra of Stephen Hawking in his books. Currently, I am thinking about possible ways to reaching to students, making them understand QM, relativity and other stuff which is generally attributed as "Complicated" in a simple and elagant way. One idea I have in mind is to post some lecture series on "Youtube" by explaining QM just with "simple words". However, its a tough task as QM without Maths is difficult. Anyhow, I am drafting few ideas, real world examples and soon you will be seeing me on Youtube explaining Quantum Mechanics. At this point, I am not sure how people are going to take it. Lets see...
Moving on, I am free for next few days, so probably you will find more blog sessions from me. Actually, last two months have been depressing for me from research point of view. I have been pushing myself but as you know with so many distractions around its becoming too difficult, after i am just a normal human being. Anyhow guyz, i concentrating on some new ideas. Pray for my Luck and success.
Thanks.
