  • Fundamentals of Probability in Python

    Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/277449

    In this workshop, we first provide a brief review of probability theory making sure that attendees understand probability models and applications. Later in this workshop, we will discuss basic probability models and their implementation in python, how to deal with various aspects of conditional probability like total probability theorem, conditional independence, Bayes Rule, etc. Then, we will discuss the implementation of discrete random variables as well as continuous random variable like Bernoulli variables, geometric variables, uniform, exponential and gaussian distribution. Afterwards, fundamental law of large numbers related programming concepts will be covered along with sample mean and variance of famous probability distributions.

  • A security-aware container-based architecture for connected vehicles

    Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/283789

    Cyberattack is a growing concern in connected vehicles because of the possibility of accessing, changing, or destroying sensitive information. On the other hand, many existing security protocols are infeasible to apply because of high resource consumption. Containers are a method of providing added security through virtualization. Advantages of containers include increasing utilization of bare-metal resources, and adding security isolation properties to various types of systems. These advantages make containers well-suited for the connected vehicle software. This paper describes a specific consideration in the development of a container architecture pattern for embedded systems, aimed at enforcing multiple modes of application functionality.

  • Fall Electronics session 2021

    Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/285740

    Easy circuit to transmit and receive audio through an LED We are using the 555 chip to make an oscillator (Osc). Our audio signal changes the frequency of the Osc. This signal drives a transistor with Infrared LED collector load........ We think any voltage controlled oscillator circuit will do. We think so On the receiver side, a photodiode converts this light back to current. Circuit then followed with an I-V converter (a simple resistor)....... And rest is audio..It works Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/285740

  • Surface Electromagnetics: Physics Exploration and Engineering Applications

    Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/286143

    Abstract: From frequency selective surfaces to Huygens metasurfaces, novel electromagnetic surfaces have been emerging in both scientific exploration and engineering applications. Many intriguing phenomena occur on these surfaces, and novel devices and applications have been proposed accordingly, which have created an exciting paradigm in electromagnetics, the so-called “Surface Electromagnetics (SEM)”. This presentation will review the development of various electromagnetic surfaces, as well as state-of-the-art concepts and designs. The fundamentals of SEM will be summarized and the frontier topics will be prospected, including their promising applications in microwaves, THz, and optic regimes.

  • Dielectric Materials for Generators and Large Motors

    Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/286734

    The focus of this presentation is the fundamental aspects of electrical insulation materials, specifically for rotating equipment - generators and large motors. This talk will cover basic components of an insulation system, material selection criteria, review of intrinsic properties as well as aging parameters. Major test methodologies and standards used in selecting and qualifying insulation systems will be discussed. It is intended that this presentation help the audience to understand the critical working aspects of electrical insulation materials. The “why” of dielectrics for their specific applications. This knowledge can aid in maintenance decision processes, equipment repair decisions, as well as educate those in the industry understand the tradeoffs in the dielectric materials selection process.
