CIS 233

Meet Emilie Giles, an artist, educator and a human-computer interaction (HCI) researcher from London, whose research explores how people who are at risk of being excluded from maker culture can be empowered and be the creators of their own technology, rather than just having things made for them. Emilie鈥檚 work has been published in the top CS HCI conference proceedings, even though she has no computer science background. She is a great person to talk to about career paths in art and digital media with a CS background, and what it is like to work in an interdisciplinary setting with researchers from around the world. This event is organized by the Computer Science Department.

Saturday, April 23, 10 a.m.
CIS Linux Lab (CIS 237) E-textile workshop

During this workshop, Emilie Giles and Aarathi Prasad will introduce participants to e-textiles and Arduino software and learn how to use the microcontroller to create interactive garments. We will first use sample programs to test the board and design a simple circuit that uses LEDs. Participants will then be guided to designing a simple circuit using fabric, conductive thread, LEDs, and light sensors and to sew the components onto the fabric to create a light-sensitive wristband. Consider using your wristband for nighttime walking or biking! No prior programming or sewing experience required. All materials (including computers and fabric) will be provided.

October 15, 2019: Research Talk by Dr. Brent Rodriguez-Plate, Associate Professor (by special appointment) of Religious Studies, Hamilton College
 
The Spiritual Life of Dolls: The Technological Quest for the Soul from Adam to Barbie to AI.

In the Jewish, Christian and Muslim traditions, God formed the first human from the dust of the earth, and then breathed life into the creature. Since that time, humans have attempted to do the same by fashioning raw materials into bodies that look like ours: dolls, automatons, figurines, puppets, marionettes, and robots. But it is not enough to make them look human, we also want them to behave like humans, and so we make these bodies walk and talk, move their arms and heads, and even pray. In recent years, as we create ever more artificially intelligent robots, we push them to answer questions and hold conversations. In so doing, we animate the figures through technological means. Technology is our breath, the animating force of Homo sapiens, and dolls are vital technological tools that find their way into our rituals, personal devotional lives, workplaces, and social spaces. By outlining a human history of engagement with dolls, Professor Plate provides a historical-religious framework to think through our cyborgian futures by showing how we have always been cyborgs, always merging with our technology.

Talk was sponsored by the Religious Studies department, and co-sponsored by Computer Science along with American Studies, Anthropology, Art History, Classics, History, Neuroscience, Philosophy and Sociology.

Maximizing Computing on Minimal Hardware
Single board computers (SBCs) such as the Raspberry Pi have gained popularity in recent years. But, the multicore capabilities of SBCs make them powerful platforms for energy-efficient computation. In this talk, I discuss how we can leverage the multiple cores of an SBC to solve certain problems faster (and at lower total energy) than normal computers, and how to use SBCs to engage and inspire the next generation of computer scientists.

Securing the Life-Cycle of Smart Environments
The homes, offices, and vehicles of tomorrow will be embedded with numerous 鈥淪mart Things,鈥� networked with each other and with the Internet. Many of these Things interact with their environment, with other devices, and with human users 鈥� and yet most of their communications occur invisibly via wireless networks.  How can users express their intent about which devices should communicate 鈥� especially in situations when those devices have never encountered each other before?   We present our work exploring novel combinations of physical proximity and user interaction to ensure user intent in establishing and securing device interactions.
 
What happens when an occupant moves out or transfers ownership of her Smart Environment?  How does an occupant identify and decommission all the Things in an environment before she moves out?  How does a new occupant discover, identify, validate, and configure all the Things in the environment he adopts?  When a person moves from smart home to smart office to smart hotel, how is a new environment vetted for safety and security, how are personal settings migrated, and how are they securely deleted on departure?  When the original vendor of a Thing (or the service behind it) disappears, how can that Thing (and its data, and its configuration) be transferred to a new service provider?  What interface can enable lay people to manage these complex challenges, and be assured of their privacy, security, and safety?   We present a list of key research questions to address these important challenges.

Mobile Wireless Networks of the Future
In this talk, I will introduce my work on future mobile wireless networks. I will begin by motivating the need Gbps, sub-millisecond communication. I will then talk about my work on spectrum sensing and characterization for Dynamic Spectrum Access policy and technology. In the second part of the talk, I will discuss challenges that inhibit mobile wireless network advances in infrastructure-challenged environments. I will talk about several of the systems I have developed to bridge the connectivity gap in infrastructure-challenged environments including Kwiizya for rural area communications, HybridCell for communications in refugee camps and other displaced persons scenarios, and FarmNet for smart and connected farms.
