\subsection{Project Work Undertaken}\label{Project Work Undertaken}
I did a project titled “Innovations in Science and Technology: A Mathematical Perspective”
during the Open House and Science Exhibition organised by Faculty of Science, The M.S.
University of Baroda, Vadodara in association with the Indian Science Congress Association
in January 2014. I studied famous problems like the Konigsberg Bridge Problem and Four
Colour Problem that have been solved with the help of Graph Theory. I looked into an
introductory course on Cryptography and did a comprehensive research regarding the various
applications of cryptography that awe come across in our daily lives. It was rather fascinating
to see how patterns in real life like that of a flower can be related to the Fibonacci Sequence,
how the structure of the Acropolis in Greece can be related with the Golden Ratio and a
recent mathematical explanation, which uses non linear integral equations, for the success of
the design of the Eiffel Tower. The project also involved a study of the applications of
computer graphics and image processing in our lives, the use of differential equations to study
aspects like time required in the cooking of a cake and the patterns of bacterial growth. It also
involved a brief study of fuzzy logic and its use in washing machines, cookers, etc. All these
things were then compiled into a PowerPoint Presentation which I presented.
