The concept of attractors, well-known in classical mechanics, proved very productive in the theory of black holes and inflationary cosmology. I will start with attractors in supersymmetric black holes and discuss how the discovery of Kaluza-Klein black hole attractors helped recently to explain the mysterious cancellation of ultraviolet divergences in 82 Feynman diagrams in 4-loop […]

Synopsis: If not solved, AI models' power and water consumption threaten human society and ecology. AI is expected to consume 4% of the world's electricity by 2026. Water requirements are even more alarming as water is a shared, non-renewable resource. This talk will discuss some ways, such as data center redesign that industry and academia […]

This is the annual IEEE SFBA Consumer Technology Society (CTSoc) event providing a summary of the latest and unique tech innovations from the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. This event has proven to be very popular as many people working in related industries do not get to attend CES. CES's focus has […]

Abstract: Portable electronic devices are ubiquitously rising, but are predominantly powered by batteries that require recharge/replacement to extend operation lifetime. Future devices, especially for energy-constrained applications like continuous biosensing or remote environmental monitoring, require energy-autonomy for seamless long-term operation. Ambient energy harvesting can be a sustainable way of powering these devices, but integrated circuits (IC) […] |

Humans make decisions and solve problems using heuristics (“thinking fast”) or abstract approaches such as modeling (“thinking slow”). Artificial intelligence approaches can similarly use either heuristics that are related to correlation and categorization, or use models that are related to causation. Predictive Engineering, which melds engineering modeling with probabilistic thinking, aligns closely with causation and […]

Nicholas R. Jones (Assistant Professor, Department of Spanish and Portuguese, Yale University) This presentation delves into the depths of Miguel de Cervantes’s portrayal of black Africans and sub-Saharan Africa in Nicholas R. Jones’s latest scholarly work, Cervantine Blackness (Penn State UP, 2024). With Cervantine Blackness, Jones challenges entrenched paradigms and invites a reevaluation of the […] |
