SUMMARY:The other AI challenge: building the stewardship capacity to keep pace with the technology.
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence is expanding human capability at an extraordinary pace. But technology is only half the story. As capability accelerates\, our capacity to understand\, govern\, and responsibly apply it must keep pace. Drawing on historical perspective\, decades of technology leadership and experience\, and a new framework called Balanced Growth \, this talk asks a simple question: can we grow our stewardship capacity fast enough to match our technological power?\nSpeaker(s): John\,\nAgenda:\n4:30 – Introductions\n4:40 John Daniels Presentation\n5:30 Questions\nRoom: Classroom\, Bldg: Main Enterance\, 50 Woodmont Ave\, Londonderry\, New Hampshire\, United States\, 03053\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/571587

SUMMARY:Agentic AI and the Future of Enterprise Operations
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nEnterprise IT operations are moving from tool-centric automation to outcome-driven agentic operations. This talk introduces a unified Agentic AI operating platform where specialized AI agents collaborate across DevOps\, platform engineering\, development\, security\, database\, API management\, network\, ECCB/CAB governance\, deployment automation\, multi-cloud\, Kubernetes\, monitoring\, and data platform operations. The target model is not uncontrolled automation: it is governed autonomy\, where agents plan\, validate\, summarize\, orchestrate\, and recommend actions while human accountability\, approval gates\, audit controls\, and rollback readiness remain mandatory for high-risk changes.\nSpeaker(s): \, Justin Rajakumar Maria Thason\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/569151

SUMMARY:Memphis Section PES Tech Talk: Distributed Energy Integration and Associated Power Quality Issues & Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Distributed energy integration to the grid creates power quality challenges like harmonic distortion\, voltage fluctuations\, frequency instability\, reactive power imbalance\, protective relay coordination issue\, etc. These issues mainly stem from weather-dependent generation and power electronic converters. For example\, due to random variations in wind speed\, output power\, frequency\, and terminal voltage of wind generator fluctuate. As a result\, power quality of the wind generator deteriorates. However\, consumers expect constant voltage and frequency at their ends. Thus\, frequency\, grid voltage and distribution line power should be maintained constant. Key solutions include advanced smart inverters\, energy storage systems\, flexible AC transmission equipment\, etc. This talk will discuss various means of control such as energy storage devices to maintain power quality of distribution grids.\nSpeaker(s): \, Mohd Hasan Ali\nRoom: King Room\, Bldg: University of Memphis Research Park\, 460 S Highland St\, Memphis\, Tennessee\, United States\, 38152\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/574013

SUMMARY:{AI Talks with Tea&Coffee #50} : Networks to Power the AI Revolution – The Way Forward
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe next breakthrough in artificial intelligence will be driven not only by advances in models and accelerators\, but by innovations in communication networks. As AI systems scale from thousands to millions of distributed accelerators\, communication is rapidly replacing computation as the primary bottleneck.\nAI systems massive data movement demand networking architectures that provide unprecedented levels of bandwidth\, ultra-low latency\, resilience\, security\, and energy efficiency. The network is becoming an integral part of the AI system. Today's communication infrastructures face serious challenges in scalability\, reliability\, security\, energy consumption\, operational complexity\, maintenance and management as we continue to use retrofitted techniques and protocols designed for communications and technologies that existed several decades ago. These limitations threaten to constrain the future of large-scale AI training\, distributed AI inference\, and emerging autonomous AI ecosystems. Addressing these challenges requires rethinking networking from first principles and developing architectures and techniques suited to AI-native traffic models and workloads with a capability to evolve with trends and demands.\nThis presentation explores the evolving AI ecosystem and the multidisciplinary research challenges spanning compute\, memory\, storage\, networking\, scheduling\, resilience\, software\, cybersecurity\, and sustainable infrastructure. Emphasis is placed on networking as a foundational enabler of future AI systems and on the emerging research challenges in AI-native network architectures\, scalable routing and multipath forwarding\, high-performance transport protocols\, network telemetry and AI-driven control\, scheduler-network co-design\, resilient communication and trustworthy AI networks.\nRecognizing this critical need\, the IEEE Rochester Joint AESS/Communications Society Chapter has established a Special Interest Group (SIG) on Networking for AI Infrastructure to bring together researchers\, industry leaders\, and standards organizations to advance the next generation of AI communication systems. The SIG aims to foster collaboration\, accelerate innovation\, and participate in standards to shape the future of communication infrastructures not limited to the next generation of AI.\nSpeaker(s): Prof. Dr. Nirmala Shenoy\,\nAgenda:\nPizza\nIntroduction of the Speaker\nTalk\nQ&A\nRoom: Grand/Large Conference Room\, Bldg: Nashua Public Library\, 2 Court Street\, NASHUA\, New Hampshire\, United States\, 03060\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/571705

SUMMARY:Curious Minds: Project Sapphire - The Untold Story: Preventing Brain Drain & Securing Nuclear Materials (9/16/26)
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n60 Minutes recently told the story of Project Sapphire\, a covert mission in 1994 to transport 600 Kg of Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) from Kazakhstan to prevent nuclear proliferation to countries such as Iran and North Korea following the end of the Soviet Union. This effort was part of an even bigger effort to prevent brain drain of key scientists and secure nuclear materials in the newly independent states from terrorism. I will describe a visit to Russia in 1990 that led to the Global Initiative for Proliferation Protection (GIPP) and a program called the US Industry Coalition (USIC)\, which put weapons scientists in Russia and the Newly Independent States of the Soviet Union to work on peaceful programs and secure nuclear materials. This ongoing effort by the National Nuclear Security Agency (NNSA) to secure HEU continues today at the center of the current Middle East conflict. \nDate: Wednesday\, September 16\, 11 AM EST\nModerator: Maxine Cohen\nGuest Presenter: David Bondurant \nPresenter\nDavid Bondurant is an IEEE Life Senior Member who has been involved with the computer and semiconductor industry for 55 years. He was a computer architect at Control Data\, Sperry-Univac\, and Honeywell. He was involved with the government-sponsored advanced semiconductor program called VHSIC (Very High Speed Integrated Circuits) at Univac & Honeywell\, where he developed microprocessor and ASIC semiconductor products in bipolar CML\, CMOS\, and radiation-hard CMOS. He was involved with emerging non-volatile RAM marketing at industry-leading companies\, Ramtron (FRAM)\, Enhanced Memory Systems (EDRAM\, ESDRAM\, ESRAM)\, Simtek (non-volatile SRAM)\, and Freescale Semiconductor/Everspin Technologies (MRAM). \nRegister\nRegister for the webinar

SUMMARY:Curious Minds Webinar I - Life Members
DESCRIPTION:For our first Creative Minds Webinar\, we discuss Highly Enriched Uranium which is central to today's conflict in Iran. The Reagan – Gorbachev meeting in Reykjavík in 1986 set the stage for the fall of the Soviet Union and a disarmament program between the USA and Russia. One of the goals of this effort was to prevent Proliferation to countries like Iran. David Bondurant describes meetings in Russia in November 1990 that were part of this story.\nProject Sapphire – The Untold Store\nPreventing Brain Drain & Securing Nuclear Materials\nDavid Bondurant\, Life Senior Member\n60 Minutes recently told the story of Project Sapphire\, a covert mission in 1994 to transport 600 Kg of Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) from Kazakhstan to prevent nuclear proliferation to countries such as Iran and North Korea following the end of the Soviet Union.
