SUMMARY:Rewired for AI: An Introduction to UltraEthernet
DESCRIPTION:As AI and HPC workloads scale exponentially\, traditional network fabrics are hitting a critical bottleneck. Legacy Ethernet simply wasn’t built for the ultra-low latency and zero-loss tolerances demanded by next-generation clusters. This talk will provide an engineering-first primer on UltraEthernet—the industry’s collaborative answer to modern data center scaling.\nRip Sohan will dissect the architectural gaps of legacy networks\, analyze the new data plane building blocks\, and unpack the specification’s advanced congestion control and reliability mechanisms. He will also explore how UltraEthernet integrates with existing RDMA ecosystems. Attendees will leave with a definitive mental model of the fabric designed to power the future of compute.\nSpeaker(s): Rip Sohan\,\n925 Thompson Place\, Sunnyvale\, California\, United States\, 94085\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/565084

SUMMARY:From Wi-Fi 7 to Wi-Fi 8: The Road to Ultra High Reliability
DESCRIPTION:Every Wi-Fi generation to date has been defined by its peak data rate. Wi-Fi 7 (IEEE 802.11be) raised that figure to 46 Gbps with 320 MHz channels\, 4096-QAM\, and up to 16 spatial streams. Wi-Fi 8 (IEEE 802.11bn) leaves the peak rate unchanged. The amendment focuses on reliability instead\, which is where its name\, Ultra High Reliability (UHR)\, comes from: the targets are lower latency\, less packet loss\, and stable throughput under load rather than a higher headline number. This lecture examines that change in direction and what it means for the design and testing of Wi-Fi devices.\nThe lecture opens with the mechanisms that distinguish Wi-Fi 7 from earlier generations: 320 MHz channels\, 4096-QAM\, Multi-Link Operation\, Multi-Resource Unit (MRU) allocation\, preamble puncturing\, and Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) in the 6 GHz band. Each is presented as a response to a specific limitation of previous generations\, along with its hardware and protocol complexity cost. The second part turns to Wi-Fi 8\, where multi-AP coordination\, coordinated spatial reuse\, Unequal Modulation (UEQM)\, non-primary channel access\, and enhanced long-range operation address interference\, contention\, and edge-of-coverage loss rather than raw bandwidth. Particular attention is given to why coordination between access points\, rather than a wider channel\, became the central idea of the new standard.\nThe final section looks at how these features are deployed in a real product and what they mean for the device manufacturer. Each one adds complexity on the manufacturer's side: in the chipset and the RF front end\, in meeting regulatory limits such as the 6 GHz power rules\, and in the measurements service providers run during acceptance testing. The lecture concludes with a short list of open problems suited to research directions and the skills that matter most for engineers entering the wireless field.\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Samet Yıldız\,\nRoom: VEC 424\, Bldg: Vivian Engineering Center (VEC)\, 1331 Palo Verde Ave\, Long Beach\, California\, United States\, 90815\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/575150

SUMMARY:IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar | Product Safety Accurate Communications for Effective Product Launches: The Influencing Power of Ethics
DESCRIPTION:Accurate and ethically driven communications are key ingredients for effective product launches\, particularly when product safety representations are at stake. This interactive presentation explores how clear\, factual\, and ethically grounded messaging influences product safety outcomes throughout the product lifecycle\, from design and testing to certification\, reporting\, and market introduction. Participants will examine the principles of effective communication\, learn how to distinguish between marketing enthusiasm and misleading claims\, and understand the role ethics plays in maintaining credibility\, compliance\, and consumer trust. Through practical examples\, including emerging technology marketing scenarios and product safety certification reports\, attendees will see how communication choices can either strengthen or undermine safety objectives. The session will highlight common communication pitfalls\, demonstrate strategies for presenting technical and safety information accurately\, and discuss the legal\, professional\, and ethical responsibilities associated with product claims.

SUMMARY:Decoding the Invisible: Latent Representation and the Future of Human-AI Interaction
DESCRIPTION:Modern AI does not understand pixels or words. It understands latent structure. As these invisible representations become the language through which humans and machines communicate\, they will fundamentally redefine how we create\, discover\, and collaborate. This lecture reveals the mathematics behind these hidden spaces and explores why they may become the most important interface between human intelligence and artificial intelligence.\nThis lecture explores the evolution of latent representations from Variational Autoencoders\, which first learned meaningful probabilistic embeddings\, to Generative Adversarial Networks\, which demonstrated photorealistic generation while exposing challenges in stability and control\, and finally to diffusion models and Stable Diffusion\, which combine exceptional image quality with unprecedented controllability and robustness.\nBeyond the algorithms\, the talk examines how latent representations are transforming human-AI interaction. By enabling AI systems to reason\, generate\, and collaborate through shared abstract representations\, they are reshaping creativity\, scientific discovery\, healthcare\, education\, and engineering. Understanding these hidden spaces offers not only insight into how modern AI works\, but also a glimpse into a future where humans and intelligent machines communicate and co-create in entirely new ways.\nNote:\n– You will require a Zoom account (free to obtain) to join the meeting.

SUMMARY:Engineering Invisible Electronics: How Graphene is Changing the Way We Measure Human Health
DESCRIPTION:What if medical electronics could become virtually invisible – not only conforming seamlessly to the human body but also sensing\, communicating\, and even interacting with living tissues? Recent advances in graphene and other two-dimensional materials are making this vision possible by enabling a new generation of wearable\, implantable\, and intelligent bioelectronic systems. Their unique combination of atomic thickness\, flexibility\, transparency\, electrical conductivity\, and biocompatibility is fundamentally changing how electronics interface with biology.\nIn this talk\, I will explore how these materials are enabling technologies that were previously impossible. I will introduce graphene electronic tattoos that laminate onto the skin like temporary tattoos to provide long-term\, high-fidelity monitoring of electrophysiological\, mechanical\, and biochemical signals. Applications will include continuous cuffless blood pressure monitoring using bioimpedance\, multimodal physiological sensing\, and wearable biosensors capable of tracking biomarkers directly from sweat. Beyond the skin\, I will discuss the translation of these ultrathin biointerfaces into implantable devices\, including transparent graphene arrays for recording and stimulating the heart. These tissue-conformable interfaces enable simultaneous electrical sensing\, optical imaging\, and optogenetic modulation while opening new opportunities for minimally invasive therapies and next-generation bioelectronic medicine. Finally\, I will present our recent work on graphene-based neuromorphic devices that emulate the adaptive behavior of biological synapses with energy efficiencies approaching those of neurons. These systems represent an important step toward intelligent bioelectronics capable of learning from physiological signals\, enabling adaptive biosensing\, closed-loop therapeutics\, and future human–machine interfaces. Together\, these examples illustrate how atomically thin materials are driving the shift from rigid electronic devices to bioelectronic systems that integrate naturally with living tissues.\nSpeaker(s): Dmitry\,\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/565804
