Este episódio do "Emílias Podcast - Mulheres na Computação" foi gravado a partir de uma palestra no Ada Lovelace Day 2024, promovido pelo "Emílias Armação em Bits". Nele, Alane Marie, professora da UTFPR Curitiba e coordenadora do projeto Emílias Programando, fala sobre as contribuições visionárias de Ada Lovelace para a computação, ligando suas ideias ao trabalho de Alan Turing e à importância do ensino de programação no contexto atual da inteligência artificial. Título da palestra: A Computação InspirADA por Ada: uma breve história da computação Descrição: A área da Computação Teórica surgiu com a jornada intelectual que começou com a busca da verdade pela lógica e culminou com a criação do computador. Essa jornada levou ao entendimento de como problemas podem ser resolvidos, dando origem a uma área rica em conexões com várias áreas da matemática e de ciências naturais. Nesta palestra iremos apresentar esta jornada de maneira breve, que contou com o protagonismo da matemática e artista Ada Lovelace, a primeira programadora da história, até muitas outras cientistas inspiradoras. Sobre a palestrante: Alane Marie é Professora do Departamento Acadêmico de Informática (DAINF) da Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná, campus Curitiba. Bacharel em Ciência da Computação pela Universidade Estadual do Centro-Oeste do Paraná (UNICENTRO), Mestra em Informática e Doutora em Ciência da Computação pela Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR). Seus interesses de pesquisa principais residem na área de Computação Teórica; mais especificamente, em algoritmos aleatorizados e teoria de aprendizagem de máquina. “Apesar de ser uma pessoa que trabalha com máquinas e muitos números, amo trabalhar e me conectar com pessoas. Amo compartilhar meu conhecimento com pessoas e mostrar a elas o quão fantástico o mundo de tecnologia pode ser."

With Ada Lovelace Day the inspiration for this special episode, we actually go on a journey beyond into 'the how' of embedding diversity, equity and inclusion by design, and in these ever evolving times, how to better embrace change too. To do so, I am joined by the brilliant Isabelle Guis, Chief Marketing Officer at Commvault, who has a truly fascinating personal journey to share - I am sure it will inspire many! We cover the holistic skills that matter most today and into tomorrow including STEM and STEAM, growing through discomfort or 'feel the fear and do it anyway', mottos for professional and personal life, the power of mentoring and sponsorship and so much more, packed with real life examples. And beyond this still, we explore the power of protection for data which alongside trust, must be the biggest currency of our times sharing security examples from Commvault and looking ahead to their Connections 2022 event on November 2nd and 3rd. This is a superb technology, learning and networking opportunity, freely available to all, that can help everyone to innovate with confidence. Its a packed episode! And we would love your thoughts on the show too - thanks for listening!

Today's conversation is with Donna August and I wanted to replay her episode from Series 2 because it's actually Ada Lovelace Day today which is an international celebration of the achievements of women in STEM and Donna encompasses everything we are celebrating today. An incredible role model, Donna received a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Berkeley before becoming the first African-American (man or woman) to enter the PhD program at Carnegie Mellon where she researched Artificial Intelligence. She then went on to manage the Newton engineering team at Apple before building and selling her own software business for $147 million. This is incredible and all the more amazing when you learn the obstacles she had to overcome which we discuss today.But before we get into it, there is something I wanted to tell you about today's sponsor. I am working with Ericsson to promote its Imagine Possible event next week in Santa Clara, which is in the centre of Silicon Valley. It takes place on Tuesday 18th and Wednesday 19th October and will be bringing together some extremely impressive innovators and thought leaders to discuss their vision for the future. From extended reality and the metaverse to the future of enterprise connectivity, Ericsson's Imagine Possible event will showcase the power of this new world through lively conversations and real-world examples. Guest speakers will be from Microsoft, Nvidia, Niantic, Unity, Amazon, Google, the co-founder of Xbox and many more and, the best part? It's completely free to attend. And if you can't make it to California, you can view the best bits online which is what I will be doing.

This week the NewzKidz update listeners on the latest news on the Coronavirus pandemic, coral depletion across the Great Barrier Reef due to climate change, the Mars Opposition, World Mental Health Day, how Ada Lovelace Day celebrates the achievements of women in STEM, and the Earthshot Prize launched by Prince William and Sir David Attenborough.

Bradley Howard chats with Chris Cooper-Bland and  Suw Charman-Anderson about their exciting career paths, the deconstruction of the traditional corporate ladder and the opportunity for people to create new jobs that don't yet exist.  

Yesterday was Ada Lovelace Day, founded in 2009 to celebrate the contributions of women in STEM.  Claire L. Evans, former futures editor of Motherboard author of the book Broad Band: The Untold Story of the Women Who Made the Internet  joins us to discuss Lovelace and other women who shaped STEM history.    

To mark Ada Lovelace Day, we speak to three women in RegTech who give their views on the industry now, and what we can expect in the future.

To celebrate Ada Lovelace Day, we're republishing this 2018 interview with Suw Charman-Anderson, founder of the Ada Lovelace Day (ALD), which annually supports and increases the visibility of women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) careers. The post Restart Radio Republished: Ada Lovelace Day and the stories of women in STEM appeared first on The Restart Project.

Some people have lives that simply cry out to be turned into books, movies, graphic novels, songs... maybe even operas. Ada Lovelace (1815-1852)—considered to be the "mother of computer science"—was one of them. This fall, Ada's story will be told in operatic form in Edge of a Dream, a new work by composer Juhi Bansal and librettist Neil Aitken. It's LA Opera Connects' newest Secondary In-School Opera, created to be rehearsed, assembled and performed online over a five-week period by students from ten local high schools.  As if that weren't cool enough, Ada Lovelace Day is today, October 13th. It is an international celebration of the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering and math (S.T.E.M.), and we're joining in by releasing this conversation on Edge of a Dream with the creators (Bansal and Aitken) and the director, Eli Villanueva. Looking for more Ada content? You can read an interview with Bansal and Aiken about the project here: https://www.laopera.org/discover/la-opera-content/edge-of-a-dream/

On this episode we are commemorating Ada Lovelace Day, which happens on the second Tuesday of every October to celebrate the achievements of women in STEM careers (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), and was created in memory of Ada Lovelace, the first computer programmer. However, it’s also at these moments in time when we should take note that women make up just 23 per cent of the stem industries workforce. What’s more, just last week, a leading male scientist presented a talk at CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research in Geneva claiming that “physics was invented and built by men, it’s not by invitation”. Proof that there’s still a way to go to achieve equality in the work place and to change certain attitudes. So what can be done about this? How can we encourage more girls to consider STEM careers? Do organisations need to change the way they recruit? If so, how? To discuss these questions on the podcast we are joined by Sarah Atkinson, Vice President at CA Technologies.

In government, algorithms have the potential to make public service delivery more efficient and personalised. But that’s just the start.

Ebola Outbreak As the World Health Organisation announces that the situation in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone is deteriorating, with widespread and persistent transmission of Ebola Virus Disease, the UK has introduced screening measures at Heathrow airport for passengers arriving from Ebola-affected countries. How has this particular outbreak become so widespread, and where did it start? Lucie Green discusses the source, spread and science of Ebola with Jonathan Ball, Professor of Molecular Virology at the University of Nottingham. Ada Lovelace Day Leading the charge in inspiring and celebrating women scientists, technologists and mathematicians is 19th century computer programmer Ada Lovelace. Daughter of poet Lord Byron, collaborator with inventor Charles Babbage, and accomplished mathematician herself, October 14th has been set aside for Ada Lovelace Day. Event founder Suw Charman-Anderson tells us more. Space Weather The Met Office Space Weather Operations Centre is designed to protect the UK from severe problems caused by space weather. It's been known since 1859 that weather in space can cause problems on Earth, but scientists say our growing dependence on technology puts us at greater risk. Our satellites, power grids and radio signals are all vulnerable to damage from extreme space weather events. Lucie Green heads down to the new space weather centre in Exeter, to see how they monitor the sun's activity, and how that translates into an extra-terrestrial forecast. Producers: Fiona Roberts & Marnie Chesterton Assistant Producer: Jen Whyntie.

Liz's full interview with Suw Charman-Anderson about Ada Lovelace Day.

The recent Ada Lovelace Day blogging event raised important points about the challenges of getting more young women and girls hooked on technology subjects – and dealing with the barriers which may cause some of them to fall by the wayside. For this episode I travelled to the Electrical Engineering Department at Leeds University, for an event organised by the Women’s Special Interest Group of the British Computer Society, BCS Women. The second annual Ada Lovelace Colloquium was organised by Hannah Dee with colleagues from the BCS Women committee. I spoke to Hannah, some of the speakers and many of the delegates as the day unfolded. This Podcast is complemented by a series of You Tube videos showing excerpts from many of the actual presentations. One example is shown below. The others will be linked from here when they have all been published.

March 24th 2009 is Ada Lovelace Day – an initiative which we talked about in a previous episode. At the time of writing around 1500 people have signed an online pledge to produce a Blog, Podcast, Video, etc... about a woman in technology whom they admire. This episode is about one such woman. Much of the technology we take for granted today is only possible because of the ability to design and prototype computer chips quickly and cheaply. At the beginning of the 1970’s the process was far from easy. It took time; It was prone to errors; and custom chip design was not economical for many kinds of product. Professor Lynn Conway’s best known contribution, 30 years ago, was to invent and successfully promote a radical new approach which made the chip design process straightforward and affordable. It is arguable that some of the best known businesses and many of the products we nowadays take for granted would not have been possible without Lynn’s historical contribution. In this interview Lynn talks via a transatlantic Skype call about her vision and the things that thrill her about engineering. You can also read her VLSI Archive and about some of her other work and challenges here.

Suw Charman-Anderson is one of many professionals concerned about the relatively low numbers of women in technology careers such as IT. She feels that one of the reasons for this is a lack of role models in the field for other women to see. To draw attention to the issue, and to stimulate widespread discussion, Suw has created "Ada Lovelace Day". It's a campaign to encourage over a thousand people to write a blog or otherwise share their views about a woman in technology who has inspired them -- and to do it together in one concerted push on Tuesday 24th March. I spoke to Suw via Skype about Ada Lovelace and the thinking behind her campaign. Remember that you can sign the pledge to take part on March 24th at http://www.pledgebank.com/AdaLovelaceDay
