SUMMARY:DISTINGUISHED LECTURE
DESCRIPTION:Strategic Directions for Electronics Packaging\nSubramanian S. Iyer\, Distinguished Professor  \nUCLA Samueli School of Engineering and Center for Heterogeneous Integration and Performance Scaling  \n  \nTuesday\, February 4\, 2025  \n3:30 – 5:00 p.m.  \nUC Irvine CALIT2 Building Auditorium  \nAbstract: Recent advances in electronics packaging have come to the rescue as CMOS scaling has stalled making possible the incredible advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning that promise to  transform our lives. This journey\, however\, has only just begun and much more is yet to come. The key features  that will drive this transformation can be described with the simple strategy of “scale-down and scale-out” that  has characterized monolithic CMOS scaling for several decades\, the drive to chiplets with higher yields\, and the  ability to assemble a diversity of technologies on the same substrate allowing us to blur the lines between  monolithic chip and a large heterogeneous assembly of chips. While we have made progress towards this goal\,  the technologies we have developed have ridden on legacy packaging technologies making such systems  incredibly complex and expensive to build. In this talk we will describe our approach to simplify packaging at all  levels: from design\, architecture\, process and manufacturing that have the potential to take packaging to the  next level including the ability to scale packaging systematically. There are many challenges in this approach. In  this talk we will outline these challenges and show that the adoption of silicon-like technology\, new cooling  and power delivery approaches as well as design enablement will propel packaging into the next dimension.  \nBio: Subramanian S. Iyer (Subu) is a Distinguished Professor and holds the Charles P. Reames Endowed Chair in  the Electrical Engineering Department and a joint appointment in the Materials Science and Engineering  Department at UCLA. Till recently\, he was on assignment to the U.S. Department of Commerce as Director of  the National Advanced Packaging Manufacturing Program\, where he laid the foundational strategy for the  national packaging imperative. He is the founding Director of the UCLA Center for Heterogeneous Integration  and Performance Scaling. Prior to that he was an IBM Fellow. His key technical contributions have been the  development of the world’s first SiGe base HBT\, Salicide\, electrical fuses\, embedded DRAM and 45nm  technology node used to make the first generation of truly low power portable devices as well as the first  commercial interposer and 3D integrated products. Since joining UCLA\, he has been exploring new packaging  paradigms and device innovations that may enable wafer-scale architectures\, in-memory analog compute and  medical engineering applications. He is a fellow of IEEE\, APS\, iMAPS and NAI as well as a Distinguished Lecturer  of IEEE EDS and EPS. He is a Distinguished Alumnus of IIT Bombay and received the IEEE Daniel Noble Medal  for emerging technologies in 2012 and the 2020 iMAPS Daniel C. Hughes Jr Memorial award and the iMAPS  distinguished educator award in 2021.

SUMMARY:Distinguished Lecture: All-day Augmented Reality Glasses: Promises and Problems
DESCRIPTION:Henry Fuchs\nFederico Gil Distinguished Professor of Computer Science and Adjunct Professor of Biomedical Engineering\, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. \nMany of us foresee a future in which AR eyeglasses are worn all day\, replacing\, and enhancing our current prescription eyewear. That future may not arrive for a while and predicting its \nbenefits and problems may be as premature and inaccurate as early predictions about the use of mobile phones or about “a helicopter in every garage”. Nevertheless\, a few sample \napplications seem both obvious and promising: 1) continuous physiological monitoring for sudden and long-term health changes\, and 2) virtually embodied avatars for guidance in \nnavigation\, exercise\, and training. I will also talk about the rocky history of head-worn AR systems\, which in contrast to the amazing\, continuous advances in Integrated Circuit fabrication technology\, have gone through multiple bust and boom cycles. I will talk about a few of the historic obstacles and how some were overcome\, and others side-stepped. I will summarize a few of the remaining problems\, possible paths to their solution\, and describe several of our \nresearch projects in these areas. \nBiography \nHenry Fuchs is the Federico Gil Distinguished Professor of Computer Science and Adjunct Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

SUMMARY:SURF-IoT Talk Series - Tracked Data and Women's Health
DESCRIPTION:Women are increasingly turning to technology to monitor their everyday health and manage major life events such as menopause and fertility. However\, the design of apps and wearables commonly make promises they are unable to keep and assumptions which do not line up with people’s everyday realities. In this talk\, we discuss a few years of research on how women’s health tracking apps have often excluded certain types of people and their needs\, created or perpetuated feelings of anxiety\, and presented unrealistic expectations of control. We will also introduce our ongoing project with SURF-IoT student Marawin Chheang on how people perceive descriptions of AI and algorithms in apps designed to promote fertility. \nDaniel Epstein is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Informatics at the University of California\, Irvine with a courtesy appointment in the Department of Computer Science. His work examines how personal tracking technology can acknowledge and account for the realities of everyday life\, designing new technology and studying people’s use of current technology. He has explored and designed technology for personal tracking around physical activity\, diet\, migraine\, mood\, and menstruation. \nYunan Chen is an Associate Professor in the Department of Informatics at the University of California\, Irvine. Her research interests lie at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI)\, Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) and Health Informatics. In particular\, she is interested in designing and evaluating interactive systems for clinical documentation\, patient-provider interaction\, and personal information management for chronic care. \nMayara Costa Figueiredo is an Informatics PhD at the University of California\, Irvine\, working under the supervision of Dr. Yunan Chen. Her research interests lie at the intersections of human-computer interaction (HCI)\, computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW)\, and health informatics. She focuses on the use of patient-generated health data and its consequences. She is currently investigating the challenges and uncertainties women face when self-tracking their fertility for different goals\, and the role that current technology\, particularly mobile apps\, play in this complex and potentially emotionally-loaded context.

SUMMARY:SURF-IoT Talk Series - Designing Accessible Voice User Interfaces for Children via Amazon Alexa Games
DESCRIPTION:With the increased adoption and use of voice assistants in families\, many children have interacted with voice user interfaces for a variety of daily activities at home. However\, limited prior research has examined children’s interaction with voice assistants during games. In this presentation\, I discuss lessons learned from empirical user evaluations and share implications for creating voice user interfaces in games for young children. \nYao Du is a Ph.D. candidate in Informatics and her research focuses on designing and evaluating web\, mobile\, and voice interfaces for bilingual children and children with communication disorders. \n(Join via Zoom link below)

SUMMARY:SURF-IoT Talk Series - Bilingual Child Language Assessment in the Age of COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:Developmental language disorder (DLD) is one of the most common childhood disabilities. Language difficulties of bilinguals is often attributed to second language learning resulting in under-\, delayed\, and over- identification of DLD. Available diagnostic tools are standardized for face-to-face administration calling into question their validity and reliability when administered via telepractice. While many school districts have suspended assessment at this time\, special education law under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act requires that school districts conduct assessments within 60 days of referral. Thus\, it is critical to establish whether language assessment tools administered on-line yield valid results. In this talk I will\n1. Review the diagnostic criteria for DLD.\n2. Discuss challenges in identification of DLD and potential threats to validity and reliability in conducting assessment in an on-line format.\n3. Outline the proposed summer pilot study.\n4. Discuss potential outcomes and implications. \nElizabeth Peña\, Ph.D. CCC-SLP is a Professor and Associate Dean of Faculty Development & Diversity in the School of Education at UCI. She is a certified Speech-Language Pathologist and is a Fellow of the American Speech Language Hearing Association. Her research focuses language development and language disability in dual language learners; and how to best differentiating language impairment from language difference. She is interested in how children from diverse linguistic backgrounds learn new language skills and how they lexicalize their conceptual knowledge across two languages. \n(Join via Zoon link below) \n

SUMMARY:SURF-IoT Talk Series - Use of health information technology to manage pain in children
DESCRIPTION:Over 15\,000 children are diagnosed with cancer every year in the United States. In addition to symptoms associated with their disease\, children undergoing cancer treatment frequently experience significant pain and symptoms which negatively impact quality of life. In addition\, advances in the delivery of healthcare have resulted in a shift from inpatient to outpatient treatment\, which has transitioned the responsibility for symptom management to parents. Data suggest that children’s pain is under treated by parents in the home setting. In addition\, because pain is such a complex phenomenon\, multimodal intervention is necessary for optimal management. Unfortunately many children do not have access to sufficient pain treatment\, particularly in the context of a global pandemic. Accordingly\, the field of mobile health (mHealth) offers an innovative avenue for pain intervention for children undergoing treatment for cancer. Our research program at the UCI Center on Stress & Health has partnered with the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (CALIT2) to develop innovative and engaging mHealth interventions targeting children’s cancer symptom experience in the home setting. \nMichelle Fortier is an Associate Professor in the Sue & Bill Gross School of Nursing at UCI with secondary appointments in the Departments of Anesthesiology & Perioperative Care and Psychological Science. She is also co-director of the UCI Center on Stress & Health\, a multidisciplinary research center through the School of Medicine with a focus on reducing children’s pain and anxiety in the medical setting. Dr. Fortier’s research interests include improving quality of life and symptom management in children undergoing treatment for cancer\, with a particular focus on incorporating technology into the management of pain and anxiety. \n(Join via Zoom link below) \n
