SUMMARY:2026 IEEE Student Challenge at Worldcon - From Fiction to Fact
DESCRIPTION:2026 IEEE Student Challenge at Worldcon – From Fiction to Fact\nThis competition invites participants to explore how ideas that once appeared only in science fiction can become real technologies\, systems\, standards\, and social innovations through engineering\, research\, and responsible design.\nThe theme connects well with Worldcon because science fiction often imagines future possibilities\, while IEEE communities help turn technological possibilities into real-world systems.\nParticipants will use large language models and AI-assisted creative tools to develop an original storyline around a common theme. Participants will leverage generative AI tools and information from the IEEE community. Participants will then transform their storyline into a short video clip\, poster\, or comic-strip storyboard suitable for public display. Winning entries may be showcased at the IEEE booth during Worldcon / LAcon V 2026 in Anaheim\, California.\nJoin the 2026 IEEE Student Challenge at Worldcon – From Fiction to Fact\nhttps://ieee-dataport.org/competitions/2026-ieee-student-challenge-worldcon-fiction-fact\nSubmission Dates: 07/06/2026 to 07/27/2026\nLAcon V 2026 – World Science Fiction Convention\, Aug 27-31\, 2026\, in Anaheim California: https://www.lacon.org/\nIEEE: https://www.ieee.org/\nSign up to volunteer at the IEEE booth during Worldcon / LAcon V 2026: https://forms.gle/69uVagGrvNDjpb7bA\nStudent competition hosted by the IEEE Region 6 Regional Student Activities Committee: https://r6.ieee.org/students[]\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/569149

SUMMARY:Electrification for Energy Transition: Challenges and Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:The energy sector\, especially electric power systems\, is fundamental to modern society. It is poised to play an increasingly vital role in achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. With approximately 70% of greenhouse gas emissions stemming from energy used by industrial\, commercial\, institutional\, residential\, and transportation sectors\, decarbonizing their energy supply is essential. Elevating electrification – by shifting from fossil fuels to electricity – emerges as a key strategy\, exemplified by electric vehicles\, energy-efficient buildings powered by renewables\, and industrial process changes.\nTo meet climate goals\, the share of electricity in final energy consumption must rise from 20-25% today to 50-60% by 2050. This transition requires integrating large-scale variable renewable energy sources into resilient grids\, plus fundamentally transforming system design\, planning\, and operation. The short timeline presents significant challenges demanding rapid investments\, increased intelligence\, and enhanced flexibility. The role of metrology for enhancing observability with sufficient accuracy at the distribution grid and coordination between Transmission and Distribution System Operators (TSO/DSO) will be highlighted. This is a critical aspect of the intensified electrification and maintaining system resilience. The presentation will explore key decarbonization challenges\, their impact on power system evolution\, and emerging paradigm shifts\, with insights and examples from decarbonization in France.\nSpeaker(s): Nouredine Hadjsaid\,\nAgenda:\nGathering and Networking: 12:00 p.m. – 12:15 p.m.\, EST\nSeminar:  12:15 p.m. – 1:15 p.m.\, EST\nRoom: Event Room\, Bldg: Hub350\, 350 Legget Drive\, Kanata North Technology Park\, Kanata \, Ontario\, Canada\, K2K 0G7\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/565091

SUMMARY:IEEE CENTRAL COAST FREE EVENT – 29 JULY @ 6PM @ Encina Meadows Clubhouse - “The Alarming Problem of Trash in Space” - Dr. Behrooz Parhami UCSB Distinguished Professor Emeritus
DESCRIPTION:Humans have managed to pollute the land\, the seas\, and the atmosphere of our precious planet. We now realize the dangers of such pollution and are working hard to reverse\, to the extent possible\, the processes that create such pollution. Another kind of pollution is beginning to endanger our well-being as a species. The problem is often referred to as “space junk.” In the seven decades since the advent of space flight in 1957\, we have launched a large number of satellites\, some of which are still functional and provide valuable services in communications\, monitoring\, observation\, navigation\, and surveillance. The number of such satellites has been growing steadily and is slated for even greater growth with our insatiable need for additional communication bandwidth and proposals for exotic projects such as energy harvesting and space-based data centers. Alongside the functioning satellites\, we also have dead satellites and a host of space trash: Discarded rocket parts\, ballistic missile pieces\, debris created by explosions or collision between space objects\, dropped tools\, coolant droplets\, and thermal paint flakes. Until now\, we have managed to deal with such space junk\, given the fairly low density of objects and the vastness of space. We are now at a critical stage when detection followed by evasive maneuvers to dodge space junk is becoming less feasible. NASA estimates that by early 2025\, there were more than 25\,000 fairly large objects in Earth's orbit. The number of space junk items may increase exponentially due to collisions between existing items. It is high time that we give serious thought to dealing with trash in space\, as we do on Earth.\nSpeaker(s): Behrooz Parhami\,\nBldg:  Clubhouse \, Encina Meadows Clubhouse 5719 Encina Rd.\, Between Buildings 5701 and 5739 Encina Rd.\, Goleta\, California\, United States\, 93117

DESCRIPTION:[]\nAs AI\, high-performance computing\, and heterogeneous integration continue to scale\, advanced packaging is facing growing interconnect challenges across redistribution layers\, IC substrates\, HDI boards\, silicon vias\, and emerging glass-core platforms. Higher bandwidth and larger package form factors require finer wiring\, smaller vias\, higher fan-out density\, and more reliable vertical interconnects. In this context\, copper seed formation and via metallization are becoming increasingly important bottlenecks for next-generation package and substrate scaling.\nConventional copper deposition technologies\, including physical vapor deposition\, electroless plating\, and electroplating\, each play essential roles in today’s manufacturing flows. However\, as via structures become smaller\, deeper\, rougher\, or higher in aspect ratio\, limitations such as step coverage\, liquid circulation\, process uniformity\, and seed-layer continuity become more difficult to manage. These challenges are especially relevant across multiple interconnect layers\, including motherboard HDI PCBs\, IC substrates\, RDL\, memory and interposer silicon vias\, and Si BEOL metal\, etc.\nThis presentation will introduce Nano Copper Deposition as a solution family for AI-era interconnect scaling. The talk will cover DeepVia™ HDI for high-aspect-ratio via metallization in motherboard HDI PCBs\, DS-SAP™ for resolving the trade-off between thin surface seed layers and robust via coverage in IC substrates\, and other applications such as Dual Seed Damascene for fine and high-aspect-ratio damascene structures in BEOL and RDL applications\, and DeepVia™ Silicon for memory and interposer silicon vias. The discussion will highlight how these approaches can support higher I/O density\, improved escape routing\, reduced layer-count dependency\, and broader process flexibility for next-generation advanced packaging.\nSpeaker(s): Shinya Shimizu\,\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/565310

SUMMARY:SusTech Talk August 2026 – Heat Adaptation in Practice: Community-Facing Approaches to Extreme Heat in Singapore and India
DESCRIPTION:“Heat Adaptation in Practice: Community-Facing Approaches to Extreme Heat in Singapore and India”\nwith Veerappan Swaminathan\, CEO of SL2 Group\, Singapore\nDate/Time: Tuesday\, August 11\, 6pm – 7 pm Pacific Time\nAbstract:\nExtreme heat is an increasingly urgent climate adaptation challenge\, especially for older adults and heat-vulnerable households living in dense urban and tropical environments. While heat resilience is often discussed through the lens of policy\, urban planning\, or public health\, effective adaptation also depends on practical socio-technical systems that can work in real homes\, care facilities\, and communities.\nThis talk will share lessons from two ongoing community-facing projects: StayCool in Singapore\, which combines heat and humidity sensors\, physiological wearables\, an app\, heat alerts\, and trained volunteers to support vulnerable households; and a heat adaptation project at Muthiyor Nanban Home in Tamil Nadu\, India\, which uses site assessment\, environmental measurement\, stakeholder engagement\, and targeted interventions to improve thermal comfort for elderly residents. The talk will highlight implementation lessons for engineers interested in climate resilience\, sensing\, community systems\, and adaptation in practice.\nSpeaker(s): Veerappan Swaminathan\,\nAgenda:\n6:00 pm Introduction\n7:00 pm Adjourn\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/568260
