The client sends input data to a HPC servercluster simulation application that runs the experiment. The server sends output data back to thestudent’s device where the web browser shows motion and numerical results of the experiment.The implementation of a time-based collision physics engine on the server cluster uses parallelprogramming techniques

. 3. Give a sense of satisfaction to the students that they have learnt a new course with high-end technology. Strategy in Improving the LabIn computer engineering program, the digital logic circuit is the first course to learn a digitalsystem. Its counterpart is a lab which usually offers ten to twelve lab exercises. The first lab isusually to learn the pin and gate layouts of basic gates, like, NOT, OR, NOR, AND, NAND,XOR, and XNOR. Students grasp the functionalities of the gates by comparing the truth tableswith corresponding observed outputs. The other labs are on combinational circuits based onBoolean simplifications, DeMorgan’s Theorem, K-map solutions, Adder/subtractors,multiplexers and decoders
