Engineers In Action – Bolivia Suspension Bridge
Engineers In Action – Bolivia Suspension Bridge
Samantha McKillop, PE, SE will present on her upcoming volunteer work with a non-profit organization called Engineers In Action (EIA). She will be traveling abroad in October to construct a pedestrian suspension bridge for a remote community in Bolivia. This project will improve access to essential resources like education, healthcare, markets and government representation. Access to these services is complicated by the river, which floods 150 days out of the year on average. Roughly 30 children currently use a tree trunk bridge to reach class every day during the rainy season. This unstable crossing prevents access to health care for the elderly and is not adequate to transport farm produce, presenting constant risk that harvests will rot before they can be sold. The new footbridge across the Río Capilla will have a span of 114 feet and will provide a means of safe crossing for pedestrians, motorcycles, wheelbarrows, and livestock. This project will serve the communities of Qaga Huasi, Julpi Arriba, and Tablón, with a total beneficiary population of 750. It will be delivered in direct cooperation with the municipal engineers and the benefiting communities. Further, improved access to fertile land and markets will facilitate economic expansion and encourage population growth in coming years. Your financial support for this project is greatly appreciated - please consider donating through this link to help offset costs of building materials, tools and travel expenses: https://www.justgiving.com/page/samantha-mckillop-1690205165413?utm_source=Sharethis&utm_medium=one_page&utm_content=page/samantha-mckillop-1690205165413&utm_campaign=pfp-email&utm_term=ad44e251ab234078a10fe455085d0589 Speaker(s): Samantha McKillop, Agenda: For parking, please use the Surbeck parking lot on the east side of the CARA building.

CIS: EEG, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence – Applications and Progress
CIS: EEG, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence – Applications and Progress
This talk will explore the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and electroencephalography (EEG). The first fundamental question discussed will be why we require the assistance of machines despite existing human capabilities. This will be followed by a necessarily incomplete historical narrative on the application of AI to EEG, looking at the impact of advances in software and hardware on the clinical care of patients. This will lead into a discussion of the pitfalls and obstacles that prevent or slow the adoption of AI for EEG analysis. The talk will conclude with speculation about future developments and their potential impact on clinical care. Co-sponsored by: James Gowans Speaker(s): Dr Jeremy Slater, Room: 410, Bldg: University of Denver Ritchie School of Engineering and Computer Science, 2155 E Wesley Ave, Denver, Colorado, United States, 80208
Advancing 5G Technology Innovations into the 6G Era
Advancing 5G Technology Innovations into the 6G Era
5G represents a major departure from previous cellular generations. It will not only focus on speed, lower latency and spectrum efficiency but will also empower several verticals empowered by IoT, AI collecting and aggregating data for edge computing. Moving into 6G, one of the key pursuits is support by AI bringing intelligence to the edge cloud performing analysis and generating insightful information and enable ubiquitous computing to empower future use cases and applications. We’ll take a broader view as to the trends of collaborative technologies and impact on ecosystems and networking solution highlighting roadmap and applications and use cases. Speaker(s): Fawzi Behmann, Agenda: Please make sure to park in one of the pay lots even though it is after hours. Lot 440 is next to the Engineering Center for your convenience. Pizza, salad, and soft drinks will be served at 6 P.M. before the talk commences at 6:30 P.M. Specifically, the talk will cover: - A clear understanding of 5G & 6G positioning, features and roadmap. - Architecture evolution pushing intelligence to the edge. - Examples empowered by 5G/6G, IoT and AI including Enhanced Mobile Services, Massive Machine-type Communications and Ultra-reliable and low latency communications. - Use of network slicing for bandwidth efficiency, security and QoS.

IEEE CTS LMAG and CTCN Sep. 21,2023 meeting: RISC-V Thunderbird SOC for HPC and AI Applications
IEEE CTS LMAG and CTCN Sep. 21,2023 meeting: RISC-V Thunderbird SOC for HPC and AI Applications
Doug 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.

IEEE Denver PES/IAS Chapter September 2023 Meeting
IEEE Denver PES/IAS Chapter September 2023 Meeting
Schedule 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
