SIMULATION OF DIGITAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS USI...
The Master in Computational Science (MCS) program is an exciting new approach to understanding complex systems in a broad range of knowledge areas, including the natural and physical sciences, the social sciences, the life sciences, management science and medical science. By integrating computer simulation, mathematical modelling, and data analysis, recent developments in computational science are making possible what was unthinkable only a few years ago. Problems that are inaccessible to traditional experimental and empirical methods can now be addressed thanks to new techniques in algorithmic modelling and the increasing speed of modern computers.

The program introduces students to the university's blend of innovative scientific research and real-world applications, thus providing an excellent foundation for a career in industry and science. Students may emphasize numerical software, mathematical modelling, deterministic and probabilistic theory, computer simulation, or data science. Our graduates are ready to pursue professional careers in research, engineering, scientific computing, data science, data and business analytics, computational medicine, and information systems.
Previous research 1 on this subject tracked the presumed exact path the HDR source would follow in real-time, during breast brachytherapy treatments in other to ensure accurate dose delivery and effectively confirm actual source position. As a continuation, this research has three objectives. Firstly, we will extract information from patient DICOM file which will be used to perform evaluations, then we will establish communication between our C program and the new Varex Paxscan flat panel detector (FPD). Finally, we will try to embed our C codes into a MATLAB graphical user interface (GUI) This research will attempt to improve the overall existing system in several ways including, code optimization and trying a sample simulation of the process in MATLAB guide app, to check the quality of the new design. Finally, all the algorithms will be integrated into the user-friendly GUI, such that its operation can be implemented easily. The FPD is used to obtain images resulting from the exit radiation of the HDR source, emerging from an organized matrix of markers. The images are processed using in-built functions in MATLAB to obtain projection coordinates, and marker coordinates. Each marker along with its projection constitutes a line in 3D. Using the mathematical solution for near intersection of two 3D lines, N-markers will produce N*(N-1)/2 points of intersection and their mean will produce a more precise source position. The changes in this position as well as the time interval between these changes will be used to confirm the accuracy of our treatment system using the standalone monitoring system built in this research. In the previous study the accuracy of source position detection using the FPD was found to be in sub-millimeter. This study which uses a new FPD with improved features is used to confirm that, but our focus here is improvement of the previous work, as stated earlier.
