SUMMARY:THE ROLE OF CO-PACKAGED OPTICS IN OUR CONNECTED FUTURE
DESCRIPTION: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.\nIndeed\, 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\nchio I/O. This talk will clarify these seeming contradictions\, and paint a realistic picture of CPO’s role in future connectivity.\nCo-sponsored by: SPIE OPTICA Student Chapter\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Tony Chan Carusone\,\nRoom: GB119\, Bldg: Galbraith Building\, University of Toronto\, Toronto\, Ontario\, Canada

SUMMARY:Humber IEEE Smart City meeting
DESCRIPTION:Meeting organizing smart city project plan\, meeting new volunteers and delegating tasks.\nThe 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.\nThis 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.\nRoom: J233A\, Bldg: J233A\, 205 Humber College Blvd\, Etobicoke\, Ontario\, Canada\, M9W5L7

SUMMARY:Digital Health and Health Technology Assessment
DESCRIPTION:Digital Health and HTA (Health Technology Assessment) – Organized by the IEEE Computational Intelligence\nDigital 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.\nKeywords: Digital health\, health technology assessment\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Pooyeh Graili\,\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/353132

SUMMARY:Engineering Idol 2023 - Lunar Gateway
DESCRIPTION:Date updated to Arpil 1st\, 2023 because of the snow storm and inaccessibility of the venue on March 4th.\n—————————————\nWelcome to Engineering Idol 2023 Competition! Engineering is more than math and science and we hope this contest will give you an understanding of the practice of professional Engineering.\nSummary of this year’s competition: The United States-led Lunar Gateway\, a space station in lunar orbit\, will be the next major international collaboration in human space exploration. It is an important part of an ambitious plan by NASA and the International Space Station (ISS) partners\, including Canada\, to send humans deeper into space than we have ever been. About one-sixth of the size of the ISS\, this new outpost will be developed\, serviced\, and utilised in collaboration with international and commercial partners. (Canada is contributing a smart robotic system\, Canadarm3\, to the Gateway.)\nThe area of space around the Moon can help us prepare for human missions to more distant destinations like Mars. Building a space station around the Moon allows for: 1. A deeper understanding of the possible health effects of cosmic radiation and solar storms on astronauts living and working outside of Earth’s protective magnetic field; 2. Access to the lunar surface to conduct cutting-edge science; 3. A unique setting for technology demonstrations; 4. Observations of the stars\, our Sun\, and our planet; 5. An easier return to Earth.\nThe Gateway will be: 1. a science laboratory; 2. a testbed for new technologies; 3. a rendezvous location for exploration of the surface of the Moon;\n4. a mission control centre for operations on the Moon; and 5. one day\, a stepping stone for voyages to Mars.\nWhen fully assembled\, the Gateway will include modules for scientific research and living quarters for crews of four astronauts. They will be able to live and work on the Gateway for up to three months at a time\, occasionally travelling to the lunar surface to conduct science and test new technologies. Eventually\, these missions could last longer in order to prepare for the deeper-space missions of the future.\nThe objective of this competition is to desing the modules and manufacture them in a reduced scale for teh competition day. Supporting documents should be provided during the competition date for judging purposes.\nCo-sponsored by: Professional Engineering Ontario (PEO)\nSpeaker(s): Dr John Moores\,\nBldg: Bergeron Centre\, 11 Arboretum Ln\, North York\, Ontario\, Canada\, M3J 2S5

SUMMARY:Data-Driven Anomaly Detection & Prediction for IoT
DESCRIPTION:Anomaly detection/prediction usually relies on wide domain knowledge to build up the tools to automatically detect/predict abnormal events or behaviors of an IoT system. An IoT system may consist of machines with different capabilities\, functionalities and ages. Abnormal events or behaviors are usually rare events. It is time-consuming and high-cost to build up the domain knowhow of the IoT systems and collect enough data points of the anomaly. In this lecture\, I first identify the issues and challenges. Then I illustrate a general environment for anomaly detection/perdition. Then I will illustrate the technologies and solutions for anomaly detection/prediction\, and show some prototypes and their applications.\nSpeaker(s): Phone Lin\,\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/358912

DESCRIPTION:IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S) Distinguished Lecture  Please join us for an upcoming lecture on 27 Apr. 2023 at 11 am – 12 pm (Eastern Time) by Prof. Reyhan Baktur\, from Utah State University\, USA.  Overview of CubeSats: from Concept to Orbit  CubeSats are modular and standardized modern small satellites. They have been gaining steady popularity as educational projects\, low-cost space exploration vehicles for technology demonstrations\, multi-point observations of space environment\, and monitoring/reporting proper deployment of expensive deep space instruments.  With rapid advancement of electronics\, novel mechanical design\, and aerospace technology\, new progress in CubeSats is emerging every day. This calls for interests and early involvements of creative young minds. The objective of this presentation is to convey the basics of CubeSat development cycle\, launch methods\, typical CubeSat orbits\, link budget analysis\, various antenna solutions\, and feasible classroom projects. For the interests of young professionals in electrical engineering\, this lecture features a tour of several recent CubeSat missions and antenna designs for spacecraft\, ground station\, and radio beacon.  Biography  Dr. Reyhan Baktur is an associate professor at the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)\, Utah State University (USU).

SUMMARY:Terahertz Chip-Scale Systems: A New Design Paradigm
DESCRIPTION:Silicon-based Terahertz systems is a field that is only about a decade old. In this time\, we have seen a phenomenal growth of silicon systems operating at THz frequencies for a wide range of applications in sensing\, imaging and communication. It can be argued that both the ‘THz gap’ and the ‘technology and applications gap’ is closing in meaningful ways in the THz range. Technologies beyond 100 GHz focusing on sensing\, imaging and wireless back-haul links are getting attractive as we enter into a new area of highly dense network of autonomous systems requiring ultra-high speed and reliable links.  In order to move beyond this inflection point as Moore’s law continue to slow\, I will discuss why we need to look beyond the classical ‘device’-level metrics of efficiency and sensitivity of THz sources and detectors towards holistic ‘system’ level properties such as scalability and programmability. Such properties are critically important for applications in sensing and imaging\, as evidenced across sensor fusion technologies across mmWave\, IR and optical frequencies. In this talk\, I will highlight approaches that cut across electromagnetics\, circuits\, systems and signal processing\, to allow for such reconfigurability in THz signal synthesis and sensing\, yet realized with devices that are themselves not very efficient. Particularly\, we will demonstrate approaches to THz beamforming arrays\, CMOS sensors reconfigurable across the three field properties of spectrum (100 GHz-1000 GHz)\, beam pattern and polarization (Nature Comm’19)\, programmable THz metasurfaces with CMOS tiling (Nature Elec’20)\, and enabling dynamic spectrum shaping (ISSCC’21\, JSSC’21) and physically secure sub-THz links (ISSCC’20\, Nature Elec’21). In the end\, I will comment on what could be the major directions for the field in the coming decade.
