• Classifying Holes, Voids, Negative Objects and Nothing and Quantum Computing

    Date: Tuesday, March 9, 2021 Time: 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. Speakers: Katrina Hooper, Javaid Iqbal Zahid Location: Virtual - Zoom Organizers: IEEE Toronto WIE Contact: Maryam Davoudpour Abstracts: In the fields of Urban Search and Rescue (USAR), Search and Rescue (SAR) and autonomous travel, understanding the entirety of the environment is an asset and most times a requirement. For example, in USAR, it is in the spaces between objects within a rubble pile, which are a type of negative objects, where trapped people can be found and where structural instabilities are located. While most research focuses on classifying positive objects, we work to build a framework to understand negative objects and a set of standardized terminology to discuss and classify them. This presentation will discuss the necessity for creating a lexicon for negative objects, exhibit applications of negative object research, and suggest a starting point for vocabulary to reduce ambiguity around classes of negative objects. Furthermore, we aim to spark a discussion about negative object research and suggest a starting point for a novel research area. Quantum computing is one of the emerging technologies for the future. Quantum computing is based on the principles of quantum mechanics and fuses beautifully with computer science. It is often in the news when computing supremacy is discussed. Governments and big technology companies like, IBM, Google, Microsoft, Intel, etc. along with private partners, are heavily investing in this technology. Quantum mechanics is based on counterintuitive properties like superposition, entanglement, and interference that make it different from classical computing. It is expected to outperform classical computing in certain areas of applications, like medical science, computer science, and cryptography, to name a few. In this talk, we will discuss the fundamentals of quantum computing with an introduction to the principle/properties of quantum mechanics, its usefulness for representing information, and what operations can be performed on the information represented by Qubits. While quantum gates, the fundamental information processing units of quantum computing are based on mathematical constructs from Linear Algebra and Probability, classical computing is based on Boolean Algebra and Logics gates. A number of possibilities for representing and processing quantum information are much larger than classical computing – hence the promise of larger computer power of quantum computing.

Collaborate in workshops where we will co-design the future wearables, apps and services that address our priorities and needs. Date: 10 Mar 2021 Time: 03:00 PM to 05:00 PM Speaker(s): Renn Scott, Samira Rahimi Location: Virtual Organizer(s): IEEE Toronto WIE, IM/RA Contact: Toronto Section Affinity Group,WIE, Toronto Section Jt. Chapter, IM09/RA24 Biographies: Renn Scott; MA, Interaction Design, RCA, Founder + Chief Designer of Daily Goods Design LABS, Senior Director of UX + ID at Myant A design leader and prolific inventor, Renn has a passion for creating innovative user experiences and forward-thinking product designs. With over 20 years of experience at companies such as Myant, IBM and BlackBerry in leadership roles within user experience, design research, consumer insights and strategic innovation, Renn has helped design best in class products and experiences. Renn’s hands-on approach and point of view as a designer is radically different than most. For any project she always starts with ‘WHY create’ in the first place and uses a co-creative design methodology and best practices based on insights gained from female consumers. Renn’s experience and observations has been that there is a lack of female design leaders and designers in the tech and design fields. Instead of just leading by example Renn also strives to empower other women to make, create and innovate in the field of design, technology and fashion by sharing her insights, skills and knowledge through Daily Goods Design LABS pop ups and educational event series.

  • The Role of AI in 5G/6G and IoT-Enabled Smart Grids

    Montreal, Quebec Canada

    IEEE Young Professionals brings speakers from Canadian research groups to give the community technical talks in AI-Powered Wireless Communications and Intelligent Cyber Physical Analysis in IoT-Enabled Smart Grids. The virtual platform information will be sent to registrants a couple of hours ahead of starting the event. Contact: IEEE Young Professionals Montreal Speakers: Dr. Melike Erol-Kantarci of University of Ottawa Topic: AI-Enabled Wireless Networks: A Bridge from 5G to 6G Abstract: Future wireless networks are expected to support a multitude of services demanded by Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable and Low-latency Communications (uRLLC), and massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC) users. Heterogeneous devices with different quality of service (QoS) demands will require intelligent and flexible allocation of network resources in response to network dynamics. For instance, a highly reliable and low-latency network is needed to enable rapid transfer of messages between connected autonomous vehicles. At the same time, the same physical infrastructure is expected to serve users with high-quality video demand or even mobile Augmented/Virtual Reality entertainment applications. Next-generation wireless networks are expected to accommodate such diverse use cases. In addition, resource efficiency, reliability, and robustness are becoming more stringent for 5G and beyond networks. To meet this, future wireless networks must incorporate a paradigm shift in network resource optimization, in which efficient and intelligent resource management techniques are employed. Artificial intelligence, or more specifically machine learning algorithms stand as promising tools to intelligently manage the networks such that network efficiency, reliability, robustness goals are achieved and quality of service demands are satisfied. The opportunities that arise from learning the environment parameters under varying behavior of the wireless channel, positions AI-enabled 5G and 6G, superior to preceding generations of wireless networks. In this keynote, we will provide an overview of the state-of-art in machine learning algorithms and their applications to wireless networks, in addition to their challenges and the open issues in terms of their applicability to various functions of future wireless networks.

She is an IEEE ComSoc Distinguished Lecturer, IEEE Senior member and ACM Senior Member Hadis Karimipour Topic: Intelligent Cyber Security Analysis in IoT-Enabled Smart Grids Abstract: Today’s smart grids are complex Cyber-physical Systems (CPSs) that integrate computational and physical capabilities for controlling and managing the ever-growing number of cyber-connected devices. Aside from a fault in the physical domain, CPS also suffer from cyber-attacks in both cyber and physical domain e.g., an industrial controller can be manipulated to launch various attacks such as the device state inference attack, leading to system instability. Therefore, any effort to secure the emerging critical CPSs is of paramount importance.  Nowadays, a cyber-security specialist must detect, analyze, and defend against many cyber threats in almost real-time conditions. Without the employment of artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques, dealing with a huge number of attacks in a timely manner is not possible. Intelligent, big-data analytical techniques are necessary to mine, interpret and extract knowledge of data when there is a significant amount collected from or generated by different security monitoring solutions. This talk will go through the CPS security challenges and AI-enabled state of the art solution in the literature.

  • Sustainable Service Pricing in Cloud Ecosystems

    Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/276942

    Energy efficiency, which has emerged as a top priority in cloud ecosystems, is the outcome of appropriate pricing mechanisms and resource allocations. Static pricing mechanisms are the most dominant approach among all the others. They are simple to implement for the service providers and easy to understand for the service users. Inaccurate price calculation and low efficient resource allocation in static pricing mechanisms made researchers discover other solutions to overcome these issues. Double auction mechanisms are among the most appropriate dynamic models. The main challenge of conventional double auction mechanisms is not considering the cloud ecosystems' specifications, such as dynamic online features. The term dynamic refers to the many variable parameters in cloud ecosystems, and they constantly change. Conventional static offline pricing solutions are set based on a series of parameters before running the process. In dynamic online methods, we customize our pricing models based on dynamic and current parameters. Also, we continuously optimize these methods to attain optimal results. In this seminar, firstly, we define a Dynamic Online Double Auction Mechanism (DODAM) for the IaaS environment, which covers a broader range of IaaS parameters by considering the dynamic online features of such markets. Considering the features of cloud dynamic online ecosystems, DODAM provides an appropriate price scheduling for service providers and service users. Cloud secondary market is a new paradigm in IaaS ecosystems. In these markets, brokers and reseller buyers have attained their resources from service providers of the cloud primary markets in the form of timed packages and repackage them into smaller chunks. As unsold packages do not transfer to the next intervals, brokers and reseller buyers need to sell their packages as much as possible. We develop a mechanical design that includes a market-based pricing model and a resource allocation algorithm in such markets as our second contribution. Next, by formulating the inherent competitive features in cloud secondary markets, we improve the pricing and resource allocation mechanisms in such competitive ecosystems. In the last contribution, we proposed a Priority-based Dynamic Online Double Auction Model (PB-DODAM), considering the perishability and time constraints of traded resources in IaaS secondary markets. The provided experimental results show that all proposed mechanisms drastically increase resource utilization and the overall utility.
