Meeting organizing smart city project plan, meeting new volunteers and delegating tasks. The current Smart city project is "Smart City Planter" It is a Raspberry Pi Pico W based BLE Mesh device that monitors the soil condition, controls watering and communicates with other plants. It has an RGB LED output to light up the planters and tamper detection. We need people of all stages of the design process. The original design is complete. We need to design the schematic, the circuit board, the 3D case, the software and the BLE stack, debugging/testing. This is a multi-year project and I hope that there will be many people interested in assisting with it. Once it is completed, we can take it to the next level with IEEE and hopefully get a contract to build them. Room: J233A, Bldg: J233A, 205 Humber College Blvd, Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada, M9W5L7

Dr. Andrew Rudder will be teaching programming concepts with a focus on competitive programming. Various languages may be used. You should be familiar with any of the following programming languages Java, C#, C, C++ or python. A basic knowledge of selection logic (such as if statements), loops and functions are sufficient. This is a prerequisite for Humber IEEE Students attending IEEExtreme competitions. Course continues depending on registration. Course is free. Available to any current Humber students. Course will probably last until October 2022. Breaks for Humber Midterm exams, final exams and reading weeks. Co-sponsored by: Dr. Andrew Rudder Room: J233A, Bldg: 2nd floor, 205 Humber College Blvd, Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada, M9W5L7

A new modeling formalism to compute the time-dependent behavior of combined electromagnetic (EM) and quantum mechanical (QM) systems is proposed. The method is geared towards highly multiscale geometries, which is vital for the future design of nanoelectronic devices. The validity of the proposed formalism is thoroughly discussed and its applicability is proven through several numerical experiments, including a single-particle Maxwell-Schrödinger (MS) system as well as a many-particle Maxwell-Kohn-Sham (MKS) system. These experiments confirm that the novel method drastically decreases the computation time while retaining the accuracy, leading to efficient and accurate simulations of light-matter interactions in multiscale nanoelectronic devices.

Discover the long-term impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on our world! Join us for an insightful event where we'll explore the revolutionary changes brought about by AI and its potential consequences. Our special guest speaker, Kenneth Wenger, will share his expertise from his groundbreaking book. Artificial intelligence is everywhere—it’s in our houses, phones, and cars. AI makes decisions about what we should buy, watch, and read, and it won't be long before AI’s in our hospitals combing through our records. Maybe soon it will even be deciding who’s innocent and who goes to jail. In Is the Algorithm Plotting Against Us? A Layperson’s Guide to the Concepts, Math, and Pitfalls of AI (February 2023; Working Fires Foundation) AI expert Kenneth Wenger deftly explains the complexity at the heart of artificial intelligence. He celebrates the elegance and ingenuity of AI algorithms—and you don’t need a computer science degree to follow along. “The purpose of this book is to explain how AI works at a level of detail that makes these algorithms accessible to a general audience,” Wenger writes. “Why should you get involved in the discussion if you are not a scientist? Because each of us can influence our collective future. You have the ability to influence policy every time you go out and vote. The public can decide what areas of research should get more attention. You will be better served by understanding how these systems work and what we realistically need to worry about rather than making an emotional decision based on uninformed sensationalist ideas.” Speaker(s): Kenneth Wenger, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/362301
