SUMMARY:Seventh Annual IEEE Symposium on Reliability for Electronics and Photonics Packaging (REPP)
DESCRIPTION:[]This 2-day symposium focuses on quantified reliability\, accelerated testing and probabilistic assessments of the useful lifetime of electronic\, photonic\, MEMS and MOEMS materials\, assemblies\, packages and systems in electronics and photonics packaging. This includes failure modes\, stress levels\, mechanisms\, testing schemes\, accelerated testing\, and environmental stresses. The intent is to bring together electrical\, reliability\, materials\, mechanical\, and computer engineers and applied scientists to address the state-of-the-art in all the interconnected fields of electronic and photonic packaging\, with an emphasis on various reliabilit-yrelated aspects: design-for-reliability\, manufacturing\, reliability modeling and accelerated testing.\nLocation: In person at UCLA\, and over IEEE WebEx\nDates: November 12-13\, 2026\nCost: $90 ($75 for IEEE members\, $35 for WebEx) through Oct. 16\nUCLA\, Los Angeles\, California\, United States

SUMMARY:Building the Production Infrastructure Your Agents Actually Need
DESCRIPTION:Hybrid event: In-person\, Zoom \nIf you want to join discussion remotely\, you can submit questions via Zoom Q&A. The zoom link:\n[https://acm-org.zoom.us/](https://acm-org.zoom.us/j/93726127628?pwd=qUqkfAHTxEAaEmfQYAbZmZtlzjYOoz.1) will be provided before 7:00pm of the event date. RSVP to get the link. \nAGENDA\n6:30 pre-sign in to test and chat\n**7:00** SFBayACM upcoming events\, introduce the speaker\n7:15 speaker presentation starts\n8:15 – 8:30 finish\, depending on Q&A \nJoin SF Bay ACM Chapter for an insightful discussion in person at VRP \n**Abstract:**\nRemember when everyone rushed to ship microservices without service discovery\, circuit breakers\, or tracing? AI agents are in that exact “wild west” phase right now. Everyone is building them; very few are thinking about the infrastructure underneath. \nDrawing from real-world experience deploying production agents across 120+ microservices\, this talk bypasses the basic tutorials and maps out the concrete stack that’s actually emerging: \n* **Tiered Memory & Context:** Why basic RAG isn’t enough\, and how agents need to manage short-term\, long-term\, and episodic memory. \n**The Observability Crisis:** You can’t `tail -f` an agent. We’ll look at tracing reasoning chains\, confidence signals\, and execution paths. \n**The Testing Gap:** How to unit test non-deterministic behavior and catch regressions before your users do. \nWhether you’re struggling with single vs. multi-agent orchestration or just trying to keep your agent from hallucinating its budget away\, this talk draws direct parallels to how we eventually fixed the microservices mess—and calls out what’s still painfully missing. \n**Speaker Bio**:\nUday Kanagala is a Principal Software Architect at Navan (formerly TripActions) with over 13 years of experience in the tech industry. He is a strong proponent of immutable infrastructure\, event-driven architectures\, and building highly scalable cloud systems. Throughout his career\, he has successfully helped organizations grow\, scale\, and maintain complex multi-repository infrastructures. In addition to his foundational work in cloud architecture\, Uday is actively engaged in the intersection of software engineering and Artificial Intelligence. His recent research and development focus on AI agent frameworks\, autonomous architectural governance\, and the practical implementation of AI-native enterprise systems. \n**Recent Publications**:\n[https://doi.org/10.1145/3786335.3813233](https://doi.org/10.1145/3786335.3813233)\n[https://doi.org/10.1145/3786335.3813187](https://doi.org/10.1145/3786335.3813187)\n[https://doi.org/10.1145/3786335.3813195](https://doi.org/10.1145/3786335.3813195) \n[https://twitter.com/udaybhanuprasad](https://twitter.com/udaybhanuprasad)\n[http://www.linkedin.com/in/udaybhanuprasad](http://www.linkedin.com/in/udaybhanuprasad) \n— \nValley Research Park is a coworking research campus of 104\,000 square feet hosting 60+ life science and technology companies.

SUMMARY:Rethinking Data Center Electrical Infrastructure: Challenges and Opportunities of 800VDC Power Systems
DESCRIPTION:The rapid deployment of AI-optimized data centers is introducing electrical load behaviors that differ significantly from traditional IT facilities. AI workloads exhibit high power density\, fast transient demand\, and large step changes in active power associated with training and inference cycles\, creating new challenges for power system stability and protection. In parallel\, the growing adoption of direct current (DC) architectures within data centers is reshaping how these loads are distributed\, controlled\, and interfaced to the grid.\nSpeaker(s): Joel Liu\,\nAgenda:\nNo-host social at 5:30pm\nPresentation at 6:00pm\nDinner at 7:00pm\nPresentation continues at 7:45pm\nAdjourn by 8:30pm\nZio Fraedo's\, 611 Gregory Lane\, Pleasant Hill\, California\, United States\, 94523
