    THE STAR, THURSDAY 17 JUNE 2021 EDUCATION GUIDE Mathematical tools to the fore THE education sector, which includes universities, institutes and colleges, has undoubtedly been impacted by the Covid-19 pandem- ic. After the first movement control order was implemented in March last year, the industry turned to remote learning. Research sectors in universities were massively affected as well. Experimental data collection and computer simulations for research projects had to be put on hold as laboratories were closed, causing a delay in findings. But the contribution of research and technology to stop the spread of Covid-19 is praiseworthy. Dr Faranak Rabiei from Monash University Malaysia’s School of Engineering and postgraduate student Zeeshan Ali took the opportunity to collaborate with scientists from international The number of real confirmed cases per day vs simulated confirmed cases per day from a published research article. institutes in applied and computa- tional mathematics to produce a with classical order differentiation. were discussed in detail,” Dr transmission dynamics. new mathematical model of Covid- The non-local operators in FC are Faranak shared. “In a nutshell, mathematics is 19’s transmission dynamics. ideal because they can capture Towards the last segments of the an essential tool that has a high “The existing biological models non-localities and some memory research, numerical techniques impact on research development of Covid-19 is based on classical effects.
