Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Yes, this is what we were waiting for, the Finale of the Harry Potter series. The Warner Bros. announced that it will be comprised of two parts which will be in theaters in November 2010 and July 2011.

Harry's mission is to finally kill Lord Voldermort the Dark Lord. But it's not easy as we say, because his gang, the Death Eaters are stronger than we think. But Hogward's crew comes for Harry's help in this fierce battle.

Hope you'll enjoy the video...

Sri Lanka's first AI Water Management System

Water is a precious resource. But there exist only 2-3% of the planet earth's water which is usable for humans and animals. Because water cannot be reproduced,  it is essential to manage water resource. Therefore humans invented numerous ways of managing water,  ranging from manual to automatic.

But the problem in these systems is,  in the case of an emergency like a Fire these present systems can't demand for water neither the reservoir nor from the tanks. Additionally if the city needs more water than supplied from the tanks the city can't request for additional water. Due to this static Water Management Systems are not a good alternative for the water management problem. 

Researching on this problem a group of undergraduates of Informatics Institute of Technology(IIT) came up with a perfect solution which provides ideal solutions for these problems.They came up with a system called  e-WMS or e-Water Management System which is a  dynamic water management system which provides the opportunity to the city to request for water at any given time. 


Chandira Punchihewa, Heshan Cooray, Fahiz Mohomad, Thushari Kariyawasam, Rashika Fazali, Thiruthika Sivasubramanium and Inshake Fernando contributed in developing this great system.

Ms.Kulari Lokuge of IIT was the supervisor of this massive project.

Please visit the E-WMS stall in the Cutting Edge 2010 which will be held on 18th June 2010 at IIT premises to learn more about this AI Water Management System.
