BIT organises hands-on IoT workshop for students
Mangaluru: The Bearys Institute of Technology (BIT), in association with the IEEE Mangalore Subsection, organised a Hands-on IoT Workshop for students of the ECE and CSE departments on Friday. The session was coordinated by Dr. Abdullah Gubbi, Head of the ECE Department.
The workshop featured Ms. Saeedah Muhammad Qasim Ahmad, a noted expert in Internet of Things (IoT), as the resource person. Students were introduced to key concepts of IoT through practical sessions, including sensor integration, data acquisition, and real-time device connectivity.
With interactive demonstrations, group activities, and question–answer sessions, the workshop encouraged students to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world problems. Participants said the event not only strengthened their understanding of IoT systems but also sparked innovative ideas for future projects.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Abdullah Gubbi stressed the need for hands-on learning in emerging technologies. “Workshops like these help students develop problem-solving skills and prepare them to face industry challenges,” he said.

Trump says he ‘hasn’t even thought about’ continuing Iran ceasefire
Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
