Abstract: The IEEE SASB recently approved IEEE Standard 2800-2022 which establishes “technical minimum requirements for the interconnection, capability and performance of inverter-based resources (solar, wind & storage plants, including those connected via VSC-HVDC like offshore wind) interconnected to transmission and sub-transmission systems.” This presentation will review scope, purpose, and specified requirements with focus on voltage and frequency ride-through capability and performance requirements. Variations in capability and performance requirements considering limitations of various technologies will also be discussed.

Join the Seattle Chapter of the Computer Society as we get back into the swing of meeting in person. This meetup will be an informal guided discussion of 'The Vision of Autonomic Computing' by Jeffrey Owen Kephart (Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) and David M. Chess. We'll read sections of the paper aloud with prepared analysis, including information from historical context and related works. Starting at 5:30 pm we'll have a half hour of networking over pizza and/or beer, followed by 15-20 minutes of guided discussion on the paper, then open floor discussion. You are encouraged to read the paper in advance, "https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=1160055" and consider the framing questions: - What has changed in our industry in the 20 years since this paper was published? - Did we meet the goals of autonomic computing? - Does the advent of Generative Pretrained Transformer (GPT) / Large Language Model (LLM) applications mean that there are eminent breakthroughs in autonomic computing? Come hypothesize about what forces conspired to push this paper to over 8k citations, and if we've yet to plumb the depths of autonomic computing. The event will not be recorded or streamed online, so feel free to bring your hot takes... within reason. Please note that this is a pay-your-own-way event. Attendees will be responsible for covering the cost of their own food and beverages. Bldg: RAZZíS PIZZERíA , RAZZíS PIZZERíA , 8523 Greenwood Ave N, Seattle, Washington, United States, 98103

Artificial intelligence is taking the world by surprise. Just like in the movies we saw 5 to 10 years ago the AI is taking over our daily life (Terminator). How is this possible? What codes are we using that makes this all possible. Who is the brainchild behind ChatGPT. This conference will get to the route of the master coders to enable such intelligence to form on its own by a bunch of ones and zeros. Also find out how this technology is escalating faster than humanly thought possible with the new quantum theory of an infinite number of selections based on color. Find out the latest on Machine Language, protocol software and cybersecurity. Is AI creating its own code? Is AI really learning on its own? How are we humans preparing for the future of AI. Is AI able to stop cyber criminals. Where do we see AI and the human civilization 10 years from now 2033? Don't miss this great event. Speak with AI scientists, engineers, and data analysts.

IEEE Communications Society Distinguished Lecture Speaker: Prof. Andrew Eckford, York University, Canada To join in-person: Location: Room 3038, Macleod Building, 2356 Main Mall, Vancouver, BC, Canada To join remotely, the Zoom meeting link is as follows: https://ubc.zoom.us/j/65786322697?pwd=WmdqSDFXTVdSd3NNb2FGMmlud09NQT09 Meeting ID: 657 8632 2697 Passcode: 225068 Abstract: 6G wireless systems are expected to offer ubiquitous connectivity in presently under-served areas, potentially provided by satellite- and space-based internet-of-things applications. In the search for enabling technologies to achieve these expectations, molecular communication is an important alternative to conventional electromagnetic-based wireless communication. In this talk, we give a brief introduction to molecular communication, and discuss how it may be used to communicate in "wave-denied" environments, where connectivity is desired but wireless cannot be used. We also show that molecular communication can achieve surprisingly high information rates, theoretically unlimited and practically in the gigabit-per-second range, making it a compelling technology for 6G. We finish with a discussion of the current state of the field and propose some experimental next steps. Bio: Andrew Eckford is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at York University, Toronto, Ontario.

In the United States, women make up half of the total U.S. college-educated workforce, but they only constitute 28% of the science and engineering workforce. This underrepresentation is not due to a lack of interest or capability but often due to societal and cultural barriers. Encouraging girls to participate in STEM activities from a young age can help bridge this gap, fostering a more diverse and inclusive future for these fields. Join us for an electrifying adventure at our "Girls Explore STEM" event! In our electrical engineering session, we'll dive into the captivating world of electricity. Get hands-on experience generating power with a hand crank generator, build your very own electric bell, and even discover the remarkable potential of fruit batteries. We'll shed light on the incredible possibilities of solar energy generation and so much more. Unleash your curiosity and discover the dynamic field of electrical engineering in a fun and interactive way. Don't miss out on this empowering journey into STEM!
