Progress in computation and communication is increasingly bottlenecked by integrated circuit I/0. CMOS technology scaling has enabled the integration of hundreds of complete modems operating over 100Gbps on a single chip. Whereas optical links were previously reserved for communication over 100's of kilometres, they are now the primary solution for chip-to-chip links above 100 Gbps over any distance beyond a few metres. Co-packaged optics (CPO) bring optics right to the perimeter of our electronic integrated circuits, and may therefore appear to be a natural continuation of this trend. Indeed, PO holds the promise of simultaneously lowering system power consumption, decreasing I/0 latency, and increasing the total bandwidth of chip I/O. And yet, at the same time, it has the potential to increase the power density, increase the cost, and limit the bandwidth density of our chio I/O. This talk will clarify these seeming contradictions, and paint a realistic picture of CPO's role in future connectivity.

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

Digital Health and HTA (Health Technology Assessment) - Organized by the IEEE Computational Intelligence Digital Health provides unique opportunities to strengthen health systems and includes a range of technologies and services. These services and technologies have increasingly been used in the health sector because of their impact on patient-centered outcomes and value in healthcare decision-making. Digital health technologies depending on the application, target groups, and outcomes, can be comparators of traditional health technologies or used as an add-on to increase the effectiveness of those health interventions. Such technologies need to be reimbursed by public and private payers sooner or later. This talk is about digital health reimbursement of health and digital health technologies, the barriers to using digital health, and some potential solutions in the health systems.
