Safety and security-critical systems require extensive test and evaluation, but existing high assurance test methods are based on structural coverage criteria that do not apply to many black box AI and machine learning components.   AI/ML systems make decisions based on training data rather than conventionally programmed functions.  Autonomous systems that rely on these components therefore require assurance methods that evaluate input data to ensure that they can function correctly in their environments with inputs they will encounter.  Combinatorial test methods can provide added assurance for these systems and complement conventional verification and test for AI/ML.This talk reviews some combinatorial methods that can be used to provide assured autonomy, including:Background on combinatorial test methodsWhy conventional test methods are not sufficient for many or most autonomous systemsWhere combinatorial methods applyAssurance based on input space coverageExplainable AI as part of validation About the speaker: Rick Kuhn is a computer scientist in the Computer Security Division at NIST, and is a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). He co-developed the role based access control (RBAC) model that is the dominant form of access control today. His current research focuses on combinatorial methods for assured autonomy and hardware security/functional verification. He has authored three books and more than 200 conference or journal publications on cybersecurity, software failure, and software verification and testing.

Finally a tech show not about AI. Martin Schmidt is the President of Rensselaer Institute of Technology (RPI) as well a distinguished technologist in his own right. So rather than having just another conversation about AI, I talked to Schmidt about how he expects quantum computing to change the world. Schmidt, who taught at MIT for many years, has a particularly interesting take on quantum because RPI is the first university in the world to house an IBM Quantum System One at its new Quantum Computational Center. So Schmidt's insights are practical rather than speculative and he offers a very concrete understanding of why quantum will, in the not too distant future, revolutionize not just computing, but also medicine and many other scientific fields. Martin A. Schmidt, the 19th President of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), took office on July 1, 2022. Prior to coming to RPI, Schmidt served as the provost of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) since 2014 and was also MIT's senior academic and budget officer. He was responsible for the Institute's educational programs, as well as for the recruitment, promotion, and tenuring of faculty. As provost, he worked closely with MIT's deans to establish academic priorities, and with other members of the Institute's senior team to manage financial planning and research support. He also had oversight of MIT's international engagements. Schmidt was a member of MIT's Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science faculty since 1988, and also served as director of MIT's Microsystems Technology Laboratories from 1999 to 2006 and as associate provost from 2008 to 2013. He was also the Ray and Maria Stata Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and is a fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), an international organization aimed at advancing technology. Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

Welcome to another episode of Behind the Numbers, hosted by Dave Bookbinder. Today, we delve into the intriguing world of hypernomics with Doug Howarth, the CEO of Hypernomics, Inc. and author of "Hypernomics: Using Hidden Dimensions to Solve Unseen Problems." Doug shares his unique insights on how hypernomics can reveal the underlying structures that support and constrain market numbers in various industries. Doug introduces the concept of hypernomics, explaining how it rearranges familiar market elements into multidimensional views, offering a deeper understanding of market dynamics. For instance, in the housing market, hypernomics can elucidate the relationships between factors like square footage, lot size, and price, and can predict the upper limits of housing prices in a given area. This methodology has proven effective across multiple industries, beyond just raw commodities. Doug illustrates the practical applications of hypernomics with relatable examples, such as choosing a washing machine and optimizing restaurant seating during COVID-19. These stories demonstrate how hypernomics can simplify complex decisions and improve business outcomes, even for small local businesses. In the episode, Doug also discusses how hypernomics can be a powerful tool for business leaders, offering a competitive advantage by identifying market gaps and potential new products. The software developed by Hypernomics, Inc. allows businesses to map out competitive spaces and understand the demand limits for their products, preventing costly mistakes and maximizing profitability. Investors can also benefit from hypernomics. Doug explains how their private fund, using principles of hypernomics, significantly outperformed the S&P 500, demonstrating the effectiveness of this approach in stock market investing. Looking to the future, Doug envisions hypernomics becoming an integral part of industry, academia, and government, revolutionizing how we understand and navigate markets. He hopes that hypernomics will be taught in universities and widely adopted, making the world a better place through more informed decision-making. To learn more about hypernomics, connect with Doug Howarth on his personal website dughowarth.com or visit the company website at hypernomics.com. You can also find his book on the Wiley, Barnes & Noble, or Amazon websites. About our guest: Doug Howarth, CEO Hypernomics, Inc. & Author of Hypernomics: Using Hidden Dimensions to Solve Unseen Problems Doug Howarth unleashed a paradigm shift. He discovered Hypernomics. It alters economics in the same way relativity changed physics, as it uses new frames of reference. It starts with four dimensions and adds time for a fifth. But, there is no upper limit to the dimensions considered. It finds the linked, opposing, self-organizing states of Value and Demand at work against each other at all times - just like the game of tug-of-war.  At age 14, Doug Howarth sensed the plotting systems created by René Descartes were inadequate for many tasks. Decades later, he made a series of startling discoveries. He found the economy self-organizes in recognizable opposing patterns and devised ways to portray markets in four, five, or any number of dimensions. Doug named this new field Hypernomics. In 2011, he formed a company, Hypernomics, Inc., who show their customers how to take advantage of Hypernomics.  Hypernomics. Inc. has worked for NASA, United Technologies, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, among others. Along with two of his Hypernomics colleagues, he was awarded US Patent Number 10,402,838 for Multivariable Regression Analysis, the world's first software designed to deconstruct markets into their 4D structures. ​Doug has written 13 peer-reviewed publications across four continents.  They've been issued by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and the International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences (ICAS), among others. NASA has requested that he speak to them three times. He has spoken to the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) in London four times, and they have published his peer-reviewed work as well.

In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks with the Founder and CEO of Hypernomics, Doug Howarth.Doug Howarth delved into the world of Hypernomics, revolutionizing how markets are understood and interacted with. He explained Hypernomics as the study of markets through a multidimensional lens. Hypernomics offers a fresh perspective on pricing strategies, emphasizing the importance of aligning prices with market perceptions and dynamics rather than relying solely on personal opinions. This approach is particularly relevant for consultancy services, where understanding the client's value perception is crucial.Doug's insights extend to B2B audiences, highlighting Hypernomics' role in revenue generation and market positioning. By grasping market dynamics, businesses can optimize their product offerings and pricing strategies to meet demand better.Key Points from the Episode:Explanation of the concept of Hypernomics Anecdote about observing an ant leading to the discovery of surveillance in ants and its relation to HypernomicsApplication of Hypernomics in real estate, restaurants, cars, airplanes, and software marketsExample of applying Hypernomics to help a restaurant increase revenue through seating arrangement analysisChallenge to the traditional supply and demand model Application of Hypernomics to the stock market Implications of Hypernomics for pricing strategiesBroader applications of HypernomicsPractical applications of Hypernomics, including consulting services for companies such as NASA, Lockheed Martin, and Virgin GalacticAbout Doug Howarth:Doug Howarth is an innovative figure in economics, having pioneered the concept of Hypernomics, also known as Multidimensional Economics (ME). He founded Hypernomics Inc. to advance this discipline, developing groundbreaking tools such as the MEE4DTM software—the world's first 4D analytics platform, for which he holds a US patent of 10,402,838. His professional experience includes significant roles like the F-117A Manufacturing Program Manager at Lockheed Martin Skunk Works and leadership in their Parametric Analysis Group.

He has a Bachelor of Arts in Economics from Washington State University. About Hypernomics:Hypernomics is an innovative economic field developed around the concept of multidimensional market analysis. It fundamentally challenges traditional economic theories like the Law of Supply and Demand. It proposes the Law of Value and Demand, suggesting that markets operate within four or more mathematical dimensions rather than merely responding to physical or observable factors. This revolutionary perspective offers a new way of understanding how market dynamics form and fluctuate, much like the shift from Ptolemaic to Copernican cosmology transformed the understanding of the cosmos.The practical applications of Hypernomics are vast, from assessing the viability of new products in the market to determining appropriate pricing strategies against known market competition. Hypernomics allows businesses to discover sustainable market spaces and predict consumer behavior more accurately. The field is supported by patented analytical software and backed by...

Edward joins the show to discuss his novel, his experience in the Space Shuttle Simulator, and what would really happen if some of our fears came to light. ****Before taking the plunge in 2004 into full-time writing, technologist turned author Edward M. Lerner spent thirty years in high tech at every level from engineer to senior vice president. Many novels later, he's glad (and still just slightly surprised) that he leaped.He worked at such techie havens as Bell Labs, Hughes Aircraft, and Northrop Grumman—and at a long-gone start-up of which you've likely never heard. He delivered high-tech products and systems to government agencies (including NASA, the FBI, and the Defense Department) and commercial customers as varied as AT&T and McDonald's. Along the way, he visited a satellite factory, flew the space shuttle training simulator, wandered about the space station trainer, and watched a space shuttle launch. Sooner or later, all that experience shows up in his fiction.Lerner's novels run the gamut from technothrillers like Energized (solar-power satellites), Small Miracles (medical nanotech), and Fools' Experiments (AI) to traditional science fiction, like Dark Secret and his InterstellarNet series, to (with NY Times bestselling author Larry Niven) the space epic Fleet of Worlds series. Ed's fiction has been nominated for Hugo, Prometheus, and Locus awards, and won the inaugural Canopus Award.Ed's short fiction has appeared in major science fiction magazines, anthologies, and collections. His short story “Grandpa?” became the award-winning short film “The Grandfather Paradox.”He also writes nonfiction, most notably Trope-ing the Light Fantastic: The Science Behind the Fiction. He also teaches the occasional writing class, blogs regularly on the state of science and SF. He has spoken at, among venues, the Library of Congress and the US Naval Academy. His fiction has been translated into ten languages.The varied career(s) didn't just happen: Ed's education is almost as eclectic, with degrees in physics, computer science, and business.Lerner is a member of the Science-fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and  SIGMA (not an acronym, and sometimes known as “The Science Fiction Think Tank”).Lerner was born in Chicago and has lived in Illinois, New Jersey, and New York. He now resides in Virginia.

Many good pull requests were never merged and the original project is missing some features which users can expect from a modern password manager. Hence, we decided to fork KeePassX to continue its development and provide you with everything you love about KeePassX plus many new features and bugfixes. Why KeePassXC instead of KeePass? KeePass is a very proven and feature-rich password manager and there is nothing fundamentally wrong with it. However, it is written in C# and therefore requires Microsoft's .NET platform. On systems other than Windows, you can run KeePass using the Mono runtime libraries, but you won't get the native look and feel which you are used to. KeePassXC, on the other hand, is developed in C++ and runs natively on all platforms giving you the best-possible platform integration. Why is there no cloud synchronization feature built into KeePassXC? Cloud synchronization with Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, ownCloud, Nextcloud etc. can be easily accomplished by simply storing your KeePassXC database inside your shared cloud folder and letting your desktop synchronization client do the rest. We prefer this approach, because it is simple, not tied to a specific cloud provider and keeps the complexity of our code low. KeePassXC allows me to store my TOTP secrets. Doesn't this alleviate any advantage of two-factor authentication? Yes. But only if you store them in the same database as your password. We believe that storing both together can still be more secure than not using 2FA at all, but to maximize the security gain from using 2FA, you should always store TOTP secrets in a separate database, secured with a different password, possibly even on a different computer. How do I use the KeePassXC CLI tool with the AppImage? Starting with version 2.2.2, you can run the KeePassXC CLI tool from the AppImage by executing it with the cli argument: ./KeePassXC-*.AppImage cli Additional Information. What Is Infinite Scrolling?

The upcoming BSV Global Blockchain Convention in Dubai from May 24 to 26 will be an important event for anyone with a “sense of history”, says Calvin Ayre, founder of Ayre Ventures and CoinGeek.  “It's like Woodstock coming to these conferences, that's how influential this technology is going to be and it's going to change so many things and it's going to touch everything,” says Calvin.   While attendees of the Convention might be dressed in suits rather than flares and sunglasses, the comparison to the iconic, late 60s counterculture festival, will resonate for those in the Bitcoin SV space who understand how revolutionary the technology could be.    Calvin is particularly excited about links between Bitcoin SV companies and big consultancy firms like IBM Consulting, which has recently been developing Sentinel Node in association with Certihash.  “I hope we educate these big consulting companies so that they understand what this technology can do so they in fact become evangelists for us when they are brought in to solve technical problems in big data.”  Another organisation that Calvin is pleased to see teaming up with the Bitcoin SV community is the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) – the world's largest association of technical professionals.   This connection came about when Latif Ladid, founder, and president of the IPv6 Forum and an IEEE influencer, came across Bitcoin inventor Dr. Craig Wright's blog after reading about his victory in the Kleiman v. Wright trial in Miami last autumn.  When Latif learnt that Bitcoin SV had been built to integrate IPv6, the most recent version of the internet protocol, he reached out directly to Dr. Wright, who has now become a keynote speaker in the IEEE conference series and is publishing information about the technology in the IEEE newsletter.  Calvin believes that the Kleiman case has opened people up to Dr. Wright's work in a big way. “The fictional cloud of fraud has been removed off of Craig's shoulders, and as a result, the serious engineers who have been studying Craig's technology feel that the reputational risk has also been removed and people have been reaching out to Craig and our community and we've got a lot more serious people directly involved, publicly.”  On the subject of Dr. Wright's lawsuits, of which one more was announced last week, Calvin admits he wishes Dr. Wright didn't have to spend his time on them and could instead focus on other things.   "Craig's going to go down in history as one of the largest filers of patents in the world, if not the largest, and all the while doing it while he's being attacked and forced to deal with this massive litigation overheard and continuing to do multiple university degrees at the same time.”  Despite this distraction, Calvin is clear that the main goal for the Convention is education. “All my focus is on educating people that can actually use this technology to solve big data challenges,” he says.

What’s it all about? Wireless Charging!! A concept that blows the mind of some, and yet it’s here and in operation. I met Andy Daga at a conference we were both speaking at, and I’ve wanted to get him onto the podcast ever since. From working on the Space Station, to working on irradicating fuel stations, Andy has a fascinating background, and company doing amazing things. I hope you enjoy the episode. About Andy Daga Andy is the founder and President and CEO of Momentum Dynamics. Andy’s fascinating story takes him from his birthplace of Brooklyn, NY, through Ithaca NY where his family developed the best Italian Restaurant in town through Hawaii, degrees in structural and civil engineering, architecture and space science and technology, ground-breaking work at NASA and his current role at Momentum Dynamics. Prior to founding Momentum Dynamics, Andy was a leading consultant to the aerospace industry and contributed to the design of the International Space Station solar power array system, the Mars Pathfinder program, and future mission planning studies with NASA and the US Department of Defense. Andy will admit that this layered journey wasn’t fully planned, but nor did it happen by accident: as a child, Andy would travel with his family from his home in Brooklyn to visit their extended family in Philadelphia, PA. This route took him through New Jersey and past the bleak refineries of Route 95. As a lover of architectural beauty, the outdoors and being obsessive about ‘all things efficiency’, the New Jersey oil refineries were the antithesis of everything Andy wanted the world to be. Fast forward to Andy’s time at NASA. He came upon the idea of inductive charging while mulling on ways to save cable weight on the International Space Station and future Mars missions. Why employ heavy cabling to carry electrons when it could be done efficiently through a vacuum or even the air itself? Out of this thought was born Momentum Dynamics. Through his varied experiences Andy has developed a strong capacity to identify engineering talent and manage multidisciplinary engineering and business teams. Andy is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) where he serves on a number of standards committees. He believes that every precious piece of our finite resources should be fully valued and carefully spent. He envisions a world of zero emissions, zero cables and zero wasted miles doing anything but making our lives better. He is a devoted husband, family man, polymath and entrepreneur. He is passionate about his dogs and his team at MD - perhaps in that order. He is still working to make the world a better place, one electron at a time. About Momentum Dynamics Momentum Dynamics develops and produces wireless charging systems for the transport industry. The company is based in Malvern, Pennsylvania and employees over 60 engineers, technicians and scientists. The company as deployed wireless systems operating in the United States and Europe. The company’s vision is to increase the adoption of electric vehicles by improving the cost and time efficiency of the EV charging infrastructure and at the time rid the world of charging cables.

On this edition of Bytemarks Café, learn about the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and how they support technology in Hawaii. The IEEE is the world's largest technical professional organization for the advancement of technology, and help to shape many of the standards we take for granted.

In this episode I discuss Unit 3 Outcome 2 Key Knowledge points 1, 2, 3 and 4; U3O2 KK01 – primary and secondary data sources (digital and non digital) and methods of data acquisition, including observation, interview and querying of resources U3O2 KK02 – suitability of quantitative and qualitative data for manipulation including comparisons (quantitative) and policy formation (qualitative) U3O2 KK03 – data types and data structures relevant to selected software tools U3O2 KK04 – one of the following methods for referencing primary and secondary sources: Harvard, American Psychological Association (latest edition), Chicago, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)

The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has released its first edition of Ethically Aligned Design (EAD1e), a nearly 300-page report involving thousands of global experts; the report covers 8 major principles including transparency, accountability, and awareness of misuse. DARPA announces the Artificial Social Intelligence for Successful Teams program, which will attempt to help AI build shared mental models and understand the intentions, expectations, and emotions of its human counterparts. DARPA also announced a program to design chips for Real Time Machine Learning (RTML), which will generate optimized hardware design configurations and standard code, based on the objectives of the specific ML algorithms and systems. The U.S. Army awarded a $152M contract to QinetiQ North America for producing “backpack-sized” robots; the common robotic system individual (CRS(I)) is a remotely operated, unmanned ground vehicle. The White House has launched a site to highlight AI initiatives. Anduril Industries gets a Project MAVEN contract to support the Joint AI Center. And the 2019 Turing Award goes to neural network pioneers Hinton, LeCun, and Bengio. Researchers at Johns Hopkins demonstrate that humans can decipher adversarial images; that is, they can “think like machines” and anticipate how image classifiers will incorrectly identify unrecognizable images. A group of researchers at MIT, Columbia, Cornell, and Harvard demonstrate “particle robots” inspired by biological cells; these robots can’t move, but can pulsate from a size of 6in to about 9in, and as a collective, they can demonstrate movement and other collective behavior (even with a 20% failure of the components). Researchers at the Harbin Institute of Technology and Machine State University control a swarm of “microbots” (here, single grains of hematite) through application of different magnetic fields. And researchers use honey bees (in Austria) and zebrafish (in Switzerland) to influence each other’s collective behavior through robotic mediation. A report from the Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute released a report on AI in law enforcement, from a recent meeting organized by INTERPOL. DefenseOne publishes a report from Tucker, Glass, and Bendett, on how the U.S. military services are using AI. An e-book from Frontiers in Robotics and AI collects 13 papers on the topic of “Consciousness in Humanoid Robots.” Andy highlights a book from 2007, “Artificial General Intelligence,” which claims to be the first to codify the use of AGI as a term-of-art. MIT Tech Review’s EnTech Digital 2019 has released the videos from its 25-26 March event. And DARPA has released more videos from its AI Colloquium. The U.N. Group of Governmental Experts is meeting in Geneva to discuss lethal autonomous weapons systems (LAWS). A short story from Husain and Cole describes a hypothetical future war in Europe between Russian and NATO forces. And Ian McDonald pens a story that captures the life of military drone pilots in Sanjeev and Robotwallah.

The influence of artificial intelligence on our world is only growing, as smart home products, algorithm-based streaming platforms, and even autonomous vehicles become a part of our daily lives. Since the 1990s, American tech companies in Silicon Valley have dominated the development and application of AI-driven technologies. However, AI pioneer Dr. Kai-Fu Lee explains that China has rapidly caught up with the United States, accelerating AI innovation and implementation in our daily lives. Lee argues that the future of AI will be even larger than the industrial revolution, posing unprecedented challenges and responsibilities for both AI superpowers. Are the United States and China going to cooperate or compete? Dr. Kai-Fu Lee is the chairman and CEO of Sinovation Ventures and president of Sinovation Venture’s Artificial Intelligence Institute.

At age 14, Doug Howarth sensed the plotting systems created by René Descartes were inadequate for many tasks.  Decades later, he made a series of startling discoveries. He found the economy self-organizes in recognizable patterns and devised ways to portray markets in four, five or any number of dimensions.  Doug named this new field Multidimensional Economics, (ME). In 2011, he formed a company, Multidimensional Economic Evaluators (MEE) Inc., whose primary purpose is to show their customers how to take advantage of ME. MEE Inc. has worked for NASA, United Technologies, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, among others. Doug has written peer-reviewed publications issued by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and the International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences (ICAS), among others.  He has spoken to the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) in London four times, and they have published his peer-reviewed work as well, in addition to having him give an invited evening lecture.  A sought-after speaker, he has addressed international conferences in Amsterdam, Brussels, St. Petersburg (Russia), Montreal, Melbourne (Australia) New York, New Orleans, Seattle, St. Louis, Albuquerque, Big Sky (Montana), Denver and Phoenix. In September he presents his paper entitled A 7D Trade in Brazil. Last month, he won a Best Paper Award for the Economic and Data Analysis track in the Analysis and Innovation Category by the International Cost Estimating and Analysis Associationâs annual Professional Development & Training Workshop for a paper called, Demand, Recurring Costs, and Profitability. Next month he presents Urban Air Mobility Affordability to the NASA Cost Symposium at the Goddard Space Center.

Dr. Allison Okamura is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University. She also holds a courtesy appointment in Computer science there. Research in Allison’s lab examines three different areas of robotics. The first is haptics, which involves human machine interactions through the sense of touch. The second is designing medical robots that can, for example be used to help people recover from stroke or perform surgery. A final area that Allison studies is creating soft robots that can conform to their environments. Much of Allison’s free time is spent with her husband, daughter, and son. When she’s not at work, Allison also enjoys relaxing, running, and playing ice hockey. Allison received her B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, and she was awarded her M.S. and Ph.D. both in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University. Before joining the faculty at Stanford University, Allison was Professor and Vice Chair of Mechanical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University. Allison is the recipient of numerous awards and honors, including being elected as a fellow for the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). She has also been awarded the IEEE Technical Committee on Haptics Early Career Award, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society Early Academic Career Award, and an NSF CAREER Award. In addition, Allison was honored as a Duca Family University Fellow in Undergraduate Education, a Robert Bosch Faculty Scholar, a Gabilan Fellow, and an Alumni Distinguished Scholar by Stanford University, as well as a Decker Faculty Scholar by Johns Hopkins University. In our interview, Allison speaks more about her experiences in life and science.

In the 1990s, as the dotcom era began to unfold, artificial intelligence (AI) expert and developer Kai-Fu Lee was busy at Apple streamlining many of the company’s early R&D projects. Those initial days, or the era of development, as Dr. Lee has since come describe it, were dominated by American technological innovation. Corporations like Apple and Microsoft paved the way for Silicon Valley companies to become global leaders. However, as Dr. Lee details in a new book, AI Superpowers: China, Silicon Valley, and the New World Order, we have moved to the era of AI implementation, and Silicon Valley is no longer the center of gravity it once was. While American tech giants remain formidable players, the most prominent companies in areas of speech synthesis, computer vision, and machine translation are all Chinese. Moreover, Chinese consumers are significantly more comfortable than their American counterparts in embracing the growing role of AI in their daily lives. For instance, unlike in the United States, the overwhelming majority of Chinese transactions now occur on platforms such as Weibo, allowing companies to gather data at an unprecedented rate. With the increasing industrial application of AI, the potential for huge numbers of American and Chinese jobs to be replaced by technology has enormous economic and political implications. On October 2, Dr. Kai-Fu Lee shared his views on the future of AI in both countries, as well as possible risks with the National Committee.   Dr. Kai-Fu Lee is the chairman and CEO of Sinovation Ventures and president of Sinovation Venture’s Artificial Intelligence Institute. Sinovation Ventures, is a leading technology investment firm focusing on developing the next generation of Chinese high-tech companies. Prior to founding Sinovation in 2009, Dr. Lee was the president of Google China. Previously, he held executive positions at Microsoft, SGI, and Apple.

Rathinavani 90.8 Community Radio Broadcast - Oct 14 2018 | World Standards Day & Freedom Artist Special Album Song by Rathinam Viscom Students | Neeyum Illama Song with the artist interview. World Standards Day (or International Standards Day) is celebrated internationally each year on 14 October. The day honours the efforts of the thousands of experts who develop voluntary standards within standards development organizations such as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), International Organization for Standardization (ISO), International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The aim of World Standards Day is to raise awareness among regulators, industry and consumers as to the importance of standardization to the global economy. 14 October was specifically chosen to mark the date, in 1946, when delegates from 25 countries first gathered in London and decided to create an international organization focused on facilitating standardization.Even though ISO was formed one year later, it wasn't until 1970 that the first World Standards Day was celebrated. உலகத் தர நிர்ணய நாள் (World Standards Day) என்பது ஆண்டு தோறும் அக்டோபர் 14ம் நாளன்று உலகளாவிய முறையில் கொண்டாடப்பட்டு வருகிறது. சீர்தரத்துக்கான அனைத்துலக நிறுவனம் (ஐ.எஸ்.ஓ.), அனைத்துலக மின் தொழில்நுட்ப ஆணையம் (ஐ.ஈ.சி.), அனைத்துலகத் தொலைத்தொடர்பு ஒன்றியம் (ஐ.டி.யூ.) ஆகிய நிறுவனங்களின் வழிமுறைகளுக்கு உட்பட்டு உலகத் தரங்களை உருவாக்கப் பாடுபடும் தொழில்துறை வல்லுநர்களின் சேவையைப் பாராட்டவும் பொருள்கள் மற்றும் சேவைகளில் விளங்க வேண்டிய சீர்மைத் தன்மையின் அவசியத்தை உலகளாவிய ரீதியில் வலியுறுத்தவும் இந்நாள் கொண்டாடப்பட்டு வருகிறது. ஒவ்வோர் ஆண்டும் ஐ.எஸ்.ஓ. மாநாட்டில், பல்லாயிரக்கணக்கான நிபுணர்கள் பங்கேற்கின்றனர். பல தொழில்நுட்பக் குழுக்களும், துணைக் குழுக்களும், பணிக் குழுக்களும் அமைக்கப்பட்டுப் பல்வேறு தொழில்களுக்கான தர நிர்ணயங்களை அந்நிபுணர்கள் வகுத்தளிக்கின்றனர் அல்லது மேம்படுத்துகின்றனர். IEC, ISO மற்றும் ITU என்பன சந்தைகளை உருவாக்கல், சுற்றுச் சூழல் பாதுகாப்பு, சுகாதாரம், பணக்கார மற்றும் வறிய நாடுகளுக்கிடையேயான வேறுபாடுகளைக் களைவது, போன்ற பல நடவடிக்கைகளில் ஈடுபட்டு வருகின்றன.

As distributed energy grows, so does cyber risk to the grid. Two energy security experts discuss solutions. --- In recent months the threat of cyber attack on the nation’s electricity system has come into urgent focus. Earlier this year the FBI and Department of Homeland Security made public a series of cyberattacks that penetrated the control systems of several nuclear power stations. Another recent attack on a network of natural gas pipelines threatened fuel supply to gas-fired powerplants in the Eastern U.S. And both breaches came in the wake of a 2015 cyberattack on three Ukrainian electric utilities that left more than 200,000 people without power. Yet even as awareness of cyber threats has risen, vulnerability to such attacks continues to grow. At the distribution level, behind the meter technologies like rooftop solar, battery storage and demand response make the electric system more efficient, but also provide attackers with new points of entry into an electric system that was, by and large, built without cyberthreats in mind. Cybersecurity experts Bill Hederman and Steve Kunsman discuss the cyber vulnerabilities of the electric distribution system, and political and technological means of addressing cyber risk. Guest Bill Hederman is a Senior Fellow with the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy and a former senior advisor to the U.S. Secretary of Energy of during the Obama administration. He was also founder of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s Office of Market Oversight and Investigations. Steve Kunsman is Chairman of the Cyber Security Subcommittee at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). He is also Director of Product Management and Applications at ABB North America.

Though we don't think about it on a daily basis - the technologies around us often "work" because of an underlying standard that they depend on. These technologies include: Wifi, ethernet, fax, and much of the internet itself. Do certain AI applications need their own set of standards in order to scale? Imagine if you needed a new type of cable or input every time you wanted to jack your computer into the wall? Imagine if you needed different hardware to pick up wifi in every location you moved around to? Imagine if all websites had totally different protocols for how they were loaded or served to your computer? If this were the case, it would be extremely challenging for a robust "ecosystem" of internet companies and technologies to emerge, because the technology wouldn't scale or work well at all. This week we interview Konstantinos Karachalios,‎ Managing Director of the Standards Association at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). Konstantinos holds a PhD in Physical and previously worked for 25 years at the European Patent Office. He speaks with us this week about the kinds of AI standards that may need to arise in order for AI to be safe and trusted enough to support a business ecosystem. Konstantinos also speaks to us about some of the current AI standards that IEEE is working on developing currently, and the implications they might have businesses everywhere.

Parks Canada is investing in a new Visitors Centre in Waterton Lakes National Park. A Visitors Centre is a primary service offered in national parks and the current Waterton Lakes Visitors Centre, in its present location, can no longer support the over 400,000 annual visitors adequately. A decision to relocate the Visitors Centre to the often congested “downtown” area of Waterton village has been made despite much local opposition. Parks Canada argues that they engaged a range of stakeholders and leaseholders before the decision was made, including Improvement District #4, the Waterton Lakes Leaseholders Association, the Chamber of Commerce, the Waterton Park Community Association and individual cottage and commercial leaseholders. Parks Canada manages national parks on behalf of all Canadians and supposedly welcome input from the community and visitors alike. They have heard a wide range of comments on the Visitors Centre, its purpose and its location and say they are committed to working collaboratively with all interested Canadians in the planning of this important facility. The speakers will describe the process of local consultation and collaboration by Parks Canada.

Power failure on the scale we recently saw with Super Storm Sandy does NOT have to happen. But it will happen, over and over again, unless antiquated energy infrastructure is updated. Today we are joined by Dr. Massoud Amin, a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and member of the IEEE Computer Society's Task Force on Security and Privacy. In the aftermath of the tragic events of 9/11, he directed all security-related research and development at the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) in Palo Alto, California, including the Infrastructure Security Initiative (ISI) and the Enterprise Information Security (EIS). We will discuss the implications of the power outages along the East Coast; what U.S. utilities need to do to improve their power grid infrastructure; and how green energy alternatives or the smart grid help to prevent/limit future outages.

We start with presenting motivation and goals for the Future Internet, and reviewing basics of trust in computing.The Pervasive Trust Foundation (PTF) for the Future Internet is proposed next. This includes presenting motivation for trust foundation for the Future Internet, showing placement of security services and mechanisms within the architecture, and trust considerations for security services.Inefficient operation of the PTF-based architecture is the main obstacle to making such architecture a reality. There are two classes of approaches that can reduce operational costs. First, inherent PTF properties result in automatic cost-saving. Second, additional cost-saving techniques --such as leveraging high-trust enclaves, or using enclave "insurers"-- can be used.The architectural principles presented here are a position statement, and their practical verification will require substantial research efforts.
