Power electronics is a foundational technology that drives a wide range of important and emerging applications including cloud computing, wireless communications, robotics, and smart energy systems. By systematically managing the increased complexity in materials, circuits, and systems, new opportunities are created to greatly advance the functionality and performance of power electronics systems. This speech provides […]

As emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and large-scale digital platforms become increasingly integrated into society, the need for responsible technology governance has never been greater. This educational session introduces participants to the DIITA Principles (IEEE Standards Association Industry Connections Program), a human- and planet-centered approach to guiding the design, deployment, and oversight […]

Audio compression is often proposed to improve the efficiency of multimodal large language models, but its impact on downstream task performance remains underexplored. This talk examines how semantic neural audio codecs behave under token reduction constraints, using cross-modal attention as a signal to discard frames with low semantic content. On audio question-answering benchmarks, attention-guided frame […]

[]Microelectronics serve as the structural backbone for both global economic competitiveness and as our national defense strategy and forms the technical foundation for a wide array of applications. These include high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, communications networks, and integrated sensing ecosystems. Next-generation microelectronic technologies are shifting away from traditional 2D silicon scaling by embracing […]

As artificial intelligence transitions from experimental deployments to mission-critical production infrastructure, organizations face a fundamental shift from model-centric optimization to system-centric engineering. While advances in model architectures and accelerator technologies have driven recent AI breakthroughs, long-term performance, reliability, and sustainability increasingly depend on the interaction between compute, memory, networking, software runtimes, operations, and governance. This […]

[] Co-Sponsored by the Photonics Chapter As silicon photonics and co-packaged optics (CPO) technologies continue to scale for AI, cloud, and high-bandwidth networking applications, reliability qualification methodologies are becoming increasingly critical. While much of the industry focus has been on performance and integration density, standardized approaches for qualification, reliability assessment and long-term service life prediction […]
