SUMMARY:A Holistic Vision of Sustainable Smart Cities
DESCRIPTION:Join the IEEE Toronto ComSoc Chapter for this in-person talk by Dr. Lina Bariah\, from the Technology Innovation Institute\, on “A Holistic Vision of Sustainable Smart Cities” !\nSince the evolution of the smart city concept\, the way we are living our everyday life has been revolving toward integrating intelligence in every aspect of our lives\, spanning from automated systems\, smart homes\, smart buildings and factories\, to intelligent transportation systems and intelligent retail. While this paradigm has motivated the emergence of novel technological trends\, in order to meet its demanding requirements\, several technologies have played a fundamental role in enabling the smart city concept\, such as internet-of-things (IoT)\, sensing\, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI)\, and cloud and edge computing\, to name a few. Along the way\, wireless network generations have fundamentally participated in maturing the paradigm of smart city\, which will continue to grow with the aim to realize pervasive user-centric applications supported by ubiquitous intelligence. This means\, AI is anticipated to be the fuel for every aspect in smart cities.\nThis talk will explore the opportunities offered by wireless networks in smart city applications\, and the role of AI as the main orchestrator.\nSpeaker(s): Lina Bariah\,\nRoom: 4th Floor- BA 4164\, Bldg: Bahen Centre for Information Technology\, University of Toronto\, 40 St George St\, Toronto\, Ontario\, Canada\, ON M5S2E4

SUMMARY:Novel solution for MVDC and HVDC cable insulation
DESCRIPTION:The extension of power grid interconnection with an increased amount of power flow control\, the long-distance transmission\, and the integration of large blocks of wind\, solar and hydro powers all call for the accelerated development of high voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission. Despite the opportunities such as lower power loss\, higher capacity for a fixed corridor\, fully controllable power flow\, better transmission and stabilization capabilities between non-synchronized AC power systems\, and no length restriction because of free reactive power compensation\, there are still significant technical challenges for HVDC cabling systems. The electric field distribution under DC voltage in the cylindrical cable insulation initiates with the Laplacian electric field distribution; however\, the thermal gradient (TG) across the insulation and the change of the electrical conductivity because of its temperature dependence under loading conditions will lead to the phenomenon of electric field inversion across the dielectric. In addition\, the electric field distribution across a DC cable insulation is affected and often distorted by the accumulation of space charge. Therefore\, controlled electrical conductivity and highly suppressed space charge accumulation are desired for tailoring the electric field across the cable insulation under DC. Full characterization and detailed understanding of these properties as well as their correlation may bring the ability to engineer needed dielectric properties for using as DC cable insulation. With respect to implications for practical material design\, the study demonstrates that a polymer material with activation energies in the range of 0.4 to 0.5 eV with relatively high trap density can be suitable for HVDC cable insulation.\nThe mass-impregnated (MI) insulations have been used traditionally for DC cabling systems with line-commutated converter (LCC) schemes. The MI insulations produced by a lapping process could be considered as a layered composite structure with excellent performance under polarity reversal condition which is essential for changing the direction of power flow in LCC systems. Compared with MI insulation cables\, polymeric insulations such as crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) insulations are lighter\, less expensive\, and less harmful to the environment compared with MI insulation cables and can be manufactured by continuous extrusion process and conveniently extended during installation by oil-free pre-molded joints. However\, DC cables with XLPE insulation are only applicable for the voltage source converter (VSC) systems. Therefore\, there still exists the need for insulation with the advantages of both MI and polymeric insulations\, i.e.\, an extrudable insulation that is compatible with polarity reversal. A model DC material based on the ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) incorporated with 2D inorganic nanoclays is proposed. The DC electrical properties of the proposed material show large improvement in space charge suppression\, controlled electrical conductivity and consequently more uniform electric field distribution. Microstructure studies suggest the uniform and oriented distribution of 2D nanoclay particles in EPR matrix causes a desired trap distribution with high density of shallow traps due to the presence of a high interfacial area between polymer chains and nanoclay particles. The macroscopic effect of that is a significant reduction of activation energy which contributes to controlling the charge transport and suppressing the space charge accumulation in the composite dielectrics. Results of the thermally stimulated depolarization current spectra of the samples are in good agreement with the predicted trap distribution based on the experimental results and morphological study.\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE DEIS M&C Co-chair – Jim Guo\nSpeaker(s): Mohamadreza \,\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/318272

SUMMARY:DEVELOPMENT OF AN 8X8 AUTONOMOUS SCALED ELECTRIC COMBAT VEHICLE
DESCRIPTION:Join the IEEE Toronto Instrumentation & Measurement – Robotics & Automation Joint Chapter for a talk on Autonomous Electric Combat Vehicles\, presented by Prof. Zeinab El-Sayegh. \nAbstract: Current literature pertaining to multi-steerable mobile platforms and the progression of military vehicles in the past few decades suggest a lack of effort in pursuing advanced technologies in this joint area. As a result\, a novel 1:6 scaled 8×8 electric combat vehicle prototype that features eight independently driven and steerable wheels is designed and developed. The intent is to create a scaled model for future autonomous vehicle navigation and control research in off road terrains. Starting with the mechanical design\, this talk will discuss the details of the chassis\, suspension\, driving and steering systems development. The electronics necessary for vehicle actuation is implemented with custom nodes and topics created for hardware communication within the Robot Operating System (ROS). Lastly\, path planning and obstacle avoidance abilities are implemented to achieve autonomous navigation. The result of this work is a fully functional and instrumented robotic platform with a modular software architecture. Vehicle design analysis\, performance and autonomous navigation abilities are experimentally tested with promising results. \nThis talk will also cover the future of autonomous electric combat vehicles. \nSpeaker(s): Zeinab El-Sayegh\, PhD\, PEng \nRegister: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/316156 \nBiography: Dr. Zeinab El-Sayegh is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Automotive and Mechatronics Engineering.

SUMMARY:Backhaul Solutions for 6G Using Hybrid FSO/THz Communication Systems
DESCRIPTION:The IEEE Toronto Chapter is delighted to host Dr. Behrooz Makki\, a Senior Researcher with Ericsson Research\, Gothenburg\, Sweden. In his work\, Dr. Behroooz studies the potentials and the challenges of hybrid free-space optics (FSO)/ terahertz (THz) based communications as a potential tool for high-rate reliable backhauling in 6G. He studies the effect of different data transmission models and parameters such as atmospheric turbulence and pointing error impairments on the performance of FSO/THz systems\, and compares the results with those obtained in the cases with only the FSO or the THz links. The presented results indicate that\, with a proper switching method\, the joint implementation of the FSO/THz links improves the rate/reliability of the backhaul links with limited switching overhead.\nSpeaker(s): Behrooz Makki\,\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/316378

SUMMARY:C/ID: A Design Methodology for Implementing Nanoscale Analog FET Circuits.
DESCRIPTION:Most of the existing circuit design methodologies are based on iterative methods\, which are very time consuming and sometimes far from being optimal. The process of analog circuit design is generally so complex that most designers rely mainly on their own intuition to design and move toward an acceptable design point\, which in many cases is based on a long process of trial-and-errors. There are two dominant circuit design methodologies used in academic institutions and industry: (1) Inversion-Coefficient (IC) method\, and (2) Gm/IDS (GmID) approach. While IC method is more analytical\, GmID require extensive device characterizations in order to create a comprehensive data-base describing device behavior in all modes of operations for different device sizes. Meanwhile\, designers need to develop their own optimization scripts to search through all possible design points and select the best fit for their application\, as these methodologies are not supported by the common EDA Tools. \nIn this seminar\, an improved design methodology will be introduced\, which lies somewhere between the two approaches. Called C/IDS\, the proposed design methodology requires prior knowledge on only few technology-dependent parameters\, which are very easy to extract. Due to its analytical nature\, this approach provides comprehensive design insight\, while the flow of design can be automatized easily. Several examples will be provided to show effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for implementing energy and power efficient circuits. A set of data points demonstrating how performance of analog circuits evolve with technology scaling will be provided. \nSpeaker(s): Armin Tajalli \nRegister: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/314527 \nBiography:Armin Tajalli received his B.S. from Sharif University of Technology\, Tehran\, Iran\, and the Ph.D. from Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL)\, Lausanne\, Switzerland. He was part of the initiating team and a Senior Analog Architect with Kandou Bus\, Lausanne\, Switzerland\, where he is currently the lead of the R&D Department. Since December 2017\, he has joined as an Assistant Professor to the University of Utah\, Salt Lake City\, USA. He has published more than 90 articles in peer reviewed journals and conferences and holds 40 patents. He has received several awards\, including The Best Paper Award in DesignCon (2016)\, PhD Prime Award at EPFL\, Switzerland (2010)\, and IEEE AMD/CICC Scholarship (2009). He is currently serving as a Technical Program Committee (TPC) Member in IEEE CICC and ESSCIRC\, and an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on VLSI Systems.

SUMMARY:Visualization Techniques in Cancer Level Detection System – Students’ Research in ML and DL at Durham College
DESCRIPTION:Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. To tackle this menace\, pathologists need a faster and better way to diagnose their patients. This led the team to work on evaluating different machine learning models to find out which model works best in accurately predicting the level of cancer development in a patient. In the course of the project\, we explored different features of our datasets with the help of visualization tools like tableau and python data visualization libraries to enable us to see the relationship between each feature and the level of cancer in a patient. We also\, in the end\, evaluated the performance of each algorithm using python visualization tools to better understand which algorithms performed the best. \nSpeaker(s): Rakesh Pattanayak\, Chisom Nnabuisi\, Dhruv Mistry\, Kar Chun Kan\, Shanuka Rathnayake \nRegister: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/313212

SUMMARY:Visualization Techniques to Demonstrate the Cause of Climate Changes – Students’ Research in ML and DL at Durham College
DESCRIPTION:We might always be confused about climate and weather\, and what is the difference between each other? Weather refers to the day-to-day temperature and atmospheric conditions\, whereas climate is the average weather in a specific region over a long period. The simplest way to describe climate is to analyze the average temperature and precipitation over time. Climate change relates to the shift in the average conditions such as average temperature and rainfall in a region over a period. Global climate change describes the average long-term changes over the entire Earth. Global warming\, Rise in sea level\, and Shrinking Mountain glaciers are a few of the adverse effects of climatic changes. Greenhouse gases are the prominent factors for the rising temperature\, which is the main factor contributing to global warming. Among the greenhouse gases\, carbon dioxide is the main factor that traps the heat in the atmosphere\, which makes an increase in the overall temperature that can affect lives on Earth. Earth’s temperature has risen by 0.14° F (0.08° C) per decade since 1880\, and the rate of warming over the past 40 years is more than twice that: 0.32° F (0.18° C) per decade since 1981. We will try to find the possible reasons for climatic changes and the factors that contributed to the current situation. Moreover\, we will consider greenhouse gas emissions and their harmful effects on climatic changes\, different countries’ contributions to this global problem\, and measures taken by officials to reduce its impact. \nSpeaker(s): Neenu Markose\, Akhil Mathew \nRegister: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/313211

We will continue by shedding light on the necessity of good communication tactics\, criteria and approaches for improving visuals and narrative techniques. Moreover\, applying the above concepts\, we will explain how to use tableau as a software application to produce visuals to perform the superstore sales data analysis. Furthermore\, we will analyze supermarket sales data\, using appropriate charts for six product lines\, customer types\, and payment methods. We will use six categories of products\, i.e. Electronic accessories\, Food & Beverages\, Health & Beauty\, Home & Lifestyle\, and Sports & travelling products\, to carry out the analysis. We will emphasize the research’s target audience by providing pertinent insights and making recommendations. \nSpeaker(s): Minu Ahlawat\, Megha Garg\, Dwij Dua & Taxil Savani \nRegister: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/313209
