[] Please join us on for an informative virtual presentation on what's changing in project management, with special attention on how AI is impacting every part of the process. We'll explore some of the tools available to project managers and talk about how to future-proof your career from an AI perspective, whether you're managing projects or just working with them. Attendees will learn how to leverage AI to manage projects better, and about some of the newest tools at the disposal of PMs. We'll give special attention to some of the free or low-cost options available. What You’ll Learn: - AI in real life: predictive analytics, smart status reports, AI “co‑pilots” for stakeholder comms - Project Manager 2.0: which human skills (strategy, negotiation, empathy) now matter most and why - Low‑Code / No‑Code boom: how citizen‑developers are shrinking delivery timelines (and new governance pitfalls to watch) - ESG & DEI: why sustainability and inclusive teams drive project ROI and how to bake both into your plan - Next‑gen agents: a peek at Agent Stores and autonomous tools - Stay current: podcasts, newsletters, and communities that will keep you ahead of the curve This Session is Ideal For: - Practicing & aspiring project managers - Engineers and technical leads tasked with delivery oversight - Business stakeholders curious about AI’s impact on project success - Anyone responsible for getting work done on time and on budget Speaker(s): Mark Farmer Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/485146

IEEE Toronto Section is pleased to announce a DL day, which brings together distinguished lecturers from the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc), Signal Processing Society (SPS), and Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) in a single event. This offers attendees an unparalleled opportunity to engage with renowned professionals who are at the forefront of innovation in their respective fields.​ The event will feature cutting-edge talks on topics such as multilayer networks, self-supervised Wi-Fi sensing, semantic communications with diffusion models, digital twin networks for vehicle platoons, pervasive intelligence in 6G systems, and emerging cybersecurity threats with current state-of-the-art defenses.​ Join us for a day filled with insightful talks, engaging discussions, and valuable networking opportunities.

Please join us for an upcoming lecture on 2 June 2025 at 3 – 4 pm (Eastern Time) by Dr. Benoit Derat, Senior Director for Systems Developments and Project Implementations, at Rohde & Schwarz, Munich, Germany. Date: Monday, 2 June 2025 Time: 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM (EST) Location: Room BA 2135, Bahen Centre for Information Technology, 40 St George St, Toronto How Close Can Far-Field Be? Getting the Best Out of Your Measurement Range Trends in modern wireless communications, including the use of massive MIMO and millimeter wave frequencies, have supported an increased deployment of electrically large antennas. This created technical and economic challenges as many EMC or regulatory tests require a far-field condition. This talk provides an overview of the recent findings in defining the shortest possible far-field test distance, depending on the size of the device under test, its operation frequency, the target metric and the upper bound acceptable measurement deviation. Practical ways are also described to determine the maximum antenna aperture size that can be tested in the far-field at a given frequency and for a maximum error, in an existing chamber with a defined range length.
