IEEE CTS LMAG and CTCN Sep. 21,2023 meeting: RISC-V Thunderbird SOC for HPC and AI Applications
Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/371510Doug Norton will give an overview of Austin-based InspireSemi’s disruptive next generation Thunderbird compute accelerator for HPC&AI applications. This RISC-V based “supercomputer-cluster-on-a-chip” packs 1,800 high performance CPU cores (all FP64 double-precision of their own design) onto a single SOC. For maximum/predictable performance and low latency, these CPU cores are all interconnected with their high bandwidth, low-latency mesh interconnect that can connect up to 256 of Thunderbird chips. After 3 years of customer-driven development, the chip is in final verification and will tape out at the end of September to TSMC. He will also share why the team chose to leverage the open hardware RISC-V ISA vs. other options and provide an overview of some of the many initiatives in the thriving RISC-V ecosystem. Speaker(s): Doug Norton Agenda: 6:00 to 6:05 PM - Open for participants to enter and network. 6:05 to 6:10 PM - IEEE LM and CTCN Business meeting and to introduce speaker. 6:10 to 7:30 PM - Formal Program and Q&A. Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/371510

IEEE Denver PES/IAS Chapter September 2023 Meeting
Room: Upstairs Meeting Room, Bldg: The Original Brooklyn's, 2644 W Colfax Ave, Denver, Colorado, United States, 80204, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/373390Schedule 6:00 – Check-in and Networking 6:30 – Dinner Served 7:00 – Presentation 8:00 – Adjourn Summary: Title: A Hierarchical Control Strategy for Grid Services using a Meter-based-Controller: Testbed-Based Validation Description: With the rapidly increasing integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) in the residential electricity sector, it is important for utilities to identify or manage those behind-the-meter (BTM) DERs synergistically. These DERs may not properly contribute to the benefits of the premises or to the grid if they are not managed optimally; instead, their suboptimal operation may jeopardize grid operations or deprive the grid and the premise from receiving the maximum possible benefits. Besides, there are controllable loads in the premise that can be coordinated with DER operations for the abovementioned purposes. With the advent of grid edge hardware and communication protocols, optimal frameworks for autonomous operation of assets and information exchange between the premise and the utility can provide grid services such as demand response. In this presentation, Shakil will talk about a meter-based-controller that can coordinate residential assets for increased visibility and controllability for the purpose of demand response and home energy management. Co-sponsored by: Denver Section Affinity Group YP Speaker(s): Shakil, Room: Upstairs Meeting Room, Bldg: The Original Brooklyn's, 2644 W Colfax Ave, Denver, Colorado, United States, 80204, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/373390
Networking Night with IEEE Denver – Power Energy Society & Industrial Application Section
Room: Upstairs Room, Bldg: The Original Brooklyn's, 2644 W Colfax Ave, Denver, Colorado, United States, 80204The IEEE Denver Young Professionals is partnering with the IEEE Denver PES/IAS Chapter to bring you an exciting networking opportunity and a presentation by a senior engineer from Eaton Research Labs (ERL). Agenda: Networking, Dinner, Presentation Networking Join us for dinner and the chance to meet fellow engineers in the Denver area who are passionate about power and industrial technologies. It's a fantastic opportunity to expand your professional network and make new friends - we will also have prizes! Dinner and Presentation We are thrilled to announce that our guest speaker for the evening will be Shakil Hossan, a Sr Engineering Specialist from Eaton with extensive experience in distribution systems modeling and applications development. He will deliver an engaging presentation on Hierarchical Control Strategy for Grid Services using a Meter-based-Controller: Testbed-Based Validation. Following the presentation, there will be a Q&A session where you can engage directly with our guest speaker and delve deeper into the subject matter. This event is a fantastic opportunity to connect with engineers in the power and industrial industries, gain valuable insights, and build lasting professional relationships. Whether you're a student, recent graduate or a seasoned professional, there's something for everyone. We look forward to seeing you there!
