Courtney gives her background and experience with creating career development paths. She discusses: - Why is it useful to have a path or plan? - Why is it especially useful for women? - Can a plan from outside your company be relevant? - What is different for a systems engineer’s development versus that of another engineering discipline? - What is different in how a woman is perceived throughout her career than a man? - Why do degrees, certifications, and titles matter more for women and other non-traditional workers? - What advice does she have for all SE’s? - What specifically for women? If you have questions you would like to send prior to her talk, please submit them (https://events.vtools.ieee.org/tego_/event/here.https:/forms.gle/XgQUM4VPQCrprxhv6) (https://events.vtools.ieee.org/tego_/event/here.https:/forms.gle/XgQUM4VPQCrprxhv6) Speaker(s): Courtney, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/427399

Presentation: Relative Localization in Multi-Robot and Wireless Networked Systems Abstract: Dr Parasuraman will present his recent work in the research of relative localization in mobile robots and sensors, where the robots collaborate their measurements and apply Bayesian sampling and graph-theoretic approaches to perform relative localization and exploration in a distributed manner. The novelty of these approaches lies in their ubiquity of relying only on minimal sensor data, making them applicable to SWAP-constrained devices like IoT nodes and swarm robots. Dr Parasuraman will also present some extensions of these works to an autonomous multi-robot exploration domain by presenting a distributed earning technique using ad-hoc map merging and significantly reducing communication and computation costs.

System and platform debug is extremely important to launch products quickly, to avoid undue delays in production, for faster customer product introduction, for in-field debug, etc. Traditional debug techniques using open-chassis are useful for system debug, but removing the chips from the platform takes an unacceptable amount of time in today's competitive environment. The availability of USB Type-C connectors on most computer platforms opens up an entirely new platform debug method called closed-chassis debug. This new type of debug eliminates the need to open up the platform. Closed-Chassis Platform Debug using an available functional receptacle, such as USB Type-C, on a final form factor device is now highly important for Hardware, Software and Firmware debug. The wide acceptance of the Type-C receptacle by most OEMs/ODMs, makes this connector/receptacle the optimum interface for debug purposes. This presentation starts by introducing traditional debug techniques, then gives details on the history of USB and how USB evolved to the Type-C connector. It then goes covers new system and platform debug techniques including open and closed-chassis debug using the ubiquitous USB Type-C connector. Speaker(s): Sankaran Menon, 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.

In this presentation he will share some observations and plans for the College developed during his first year as Dean. It will highlight two initiatives – the development of a new $150M Center in high-powered lasers and the creation of a common first-year experience for undergraduate engineering students. CSU’s new High-Power Laser Center builds upon decades of research excellence led by University Distinguished Professors Jorge Rocca and Carmen Menoni. The new first-year experience will strengthen our students’ foundational skills while providing them with the time and resources to explore the engineering disciplines offered at the college. This research-based program will generate better outcomes, better students, and better engineers. Speaker(s): Allen Robinson, Agenda: 6:00 pm Doors Open 6:30 pm Online Broadcast starts, announcement and welcome-Kris Waage 6:40 pm Did'ja Hear? See description below-Scott Evans 7:00 pm Main Presentation- Allen Robinson 8:00 End Didja Hear? This is a fifteen minute, fast paced, open mike time set aside to encourage member conversation, collaboration, and ideation; hopefully resulting in increased member involvement and a chance to contribute. Structure -Members will sign up at the meeting, before the official start of the meeting. -Time will allow 3 five-minute presenters or a five-minute and a ten-minute talk or maybe one 15-minute talk might be possible if it is interesting and appropriate. - Presenters may present informally or formally. Slides are okay, but not necessary. - Q&A counts toward the time, so no long-winded sessions. Content -Weird and entertaining technical problem you solved or cannot solve - Update on a cool project - An unusual or interesting science or technical topic - Funny story - Seeking employment/seeking employees -Funding for a startup.
