• Humber College Competitive Programming Workshops

    Room: J233A, Bldg: 2nd floor, 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.

  • GDSfactory, an Open Source flow for photonics & analog circuit design, verification and validation

    Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/348254

    For efficient design, verification and validation of integrated circuits and components it is important to have an easy to customize workflow. Python has become the standard programming language for machine learning, scientific computing and engineering. In this talk we describe the gdsfactory design automation tool. GDSfactory provides you an end to end workflow that combines layout, verification and validation, which is an extensible, open source, python driven flow for turning your chip designs into validated products.

  • THE ROLE OF CO-PACKAGED OPTICS IN OUR CONNECTED FUTURE

    Room: GB119, Bldg: Galbraith Building, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada

    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.

  • Humber IEEE Smart City meeting

    Room: J233A, Bldg: J233A, 205 Humber College Blvd, Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada, M9W5L7

    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 Health Technology Assessment

    Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/353132

    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.
