11 MAR 2024 · What is bionic vision? Michael Beyeler, director of the Bionic Vision Lab and assistant professor of computer science at UC Santa Barbara, talks about how technology is being used to help people see again using bionic vision. Series: "GRIT Talks" [Science] [Show ID: 39443]
30 MAY 2023 · Very large-scale integration technology (VLSI) is the magic that helps us cram a huge amount of electronic components onto a tiny microchip, enabling the creation of smaller and more powerful electronic devices that we use in our daily lives. VLSI technology is a continually evolving field, and new advancements and innovations continue to be made by researchers and engineers worldwide. Carver Mead, the 2022 Kyoto Prize Laureate in Advanced Technology is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of modern microelectronics having made significant contributions to the field of VLSI technology and semiconductor devices. Mead is joined by John Smee and Sanjay Jha for a roundtable discussion hosted by UC San Diego professor Andrew Kahng to demystify the technology and explore future possibilities for VLSI.

16 APR 2023 · Carver Mead is a pioneer of modern microelectronics. He proposed a new methodology, very large-scale integration (VLSI), that would make it possible for creating millions or billions of transistors on a single integrated circuit (microchip). His research investigated techniques for VLSI, designing and creating high-complexity microchips. This design process has advanced electronic technologies and transformed the lives of most of the people inhabiting our planet. Mead also paved the way to VLSI design automation and facilitating the revolutionary development of today's VLSI-based electronics and industry. For his work and contributions, Mead was awarded the 2022 Kyoto Prize in Advanced Technology. In his talk entitled, "Engineering Concepts Clarify Physical Law" Mead will discuss a simplified theory that might serve as an entry point for further development by generations of young people who feel disenfranchised by the existing establishment.

2 APR 2023 · The cell phone revolutionized how we communicate with each other, but its origins are extremely different from the device you use to talk, text and even surf the internet with on a daily basis. Its roots could be traced back to the early 1970s when the head of Motorola’s communications systems division, Martin Cooper was tasked with developing a device that would make the up and coming car phone obsolete technology. On April 3, 1973, Cooper made the very first handheld cell phone call while standing on Sixth Avenue outside the New York City Hilton in midtown Manhattan to engineer Joel Engel, head of AT&T’s rival project. In a conversation with Al Pisano, Dean of UC San Diego’s Jacobs School of Engineering, Cooper reflects on the past fifty years including what it took to develop the world’s first cellular telephone, the impact it’s had on the world and the future of smartphone technology.

10 DEC 2019 · At the CSE Celebration of Diversity, attendees were invited to participate in a Red Chair Event, which is part of the National Center for Women in Technology’s SitWithMe campaign. Dozens of people sat down in a red chair to say a few words about diversity, equity, and inclusion. Through this symbolic gesture, they took a stand for diversity, equity and inclusion in Computer Science & Engineering and beyond. Series: "Computer Science Channel" [Science] [Show ID: 35448]
19 JUL 2019 · Computer science students are getting involved in high-level research projects in the beginning of their college careers thanks to an innovative program at UC San Diego. The Early Research Scholars Program teams students up with professors who have ongoing research projects. Students get guidance from a centralized mentoring team, which helps them with the basic skills needed to conduct research, so their professors can focus on the details of each project. Students conduct research on everything from autonomous cars, to the microbiome, to software verification. The program has been such a success, it is expanding to multiple universities, with plans to keep it growing. Series: "Computer Science Channel" [Science] [Education] [Show ID: 34691]
3 JUL 2019 · The CSE Celebration of Diversity is a day-long event aimed at recognizing the wealth of contributions from all the different kinds of people in the CSE community, and act as a forum to discuss how the department can continue to evolve to become a community of inclusive excellence. This event is led by the CSE Department's Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) committee. Series: "Computer Science Channel" [Science] [Show ID: 34958]
14 MAR 2019 · What technology risks are faced by people who experience intimate partner violence? How is the security community failing them, and what questions might we need to ask to make progress on social and technical interventions? UC San Diego CSE Alumnus Thomas Ristenpart discusses computer security with a focus on digital privacy and safety in intimate partner violence. He is a member of the Computer Science department at Cornell University. Series: "Computer Science Channel" [Science] [Show ID: 34588]
2 JAN 2019 · 2020 Sloan Research Fellow Nadia Polikarpova is an assistant professor at CSE, and a member of the Programming Systems group. She received her PhD. in computer science from ETH Zurich in 2014. She then spent three years as a postdoctoral researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Polikarpova's work spans the areas of programming languages and formal methods; in particular, she is interested in building practical tools and techniques that make it easier for programmers to construct secure and reliable software. Her agenda is to exploit the growing power of automated logical reasoning to build next-generation programming languages, in which the programmer simply states high-level system requirements---such as safety, security, or performance criteria---and the language infrastructure takes on the error-prone task of enforcing these requirements.
