Formal vs Simulation: When, Why, and Where Muhammed Luqman Jukaku, Synopsys Abstract: As modern SoCs continue to grow in complexity, verification teams face increasing pressure to achieve higher quality, faster coverage closure, and shorter time to market. While simulation remains the foundation of most verification flows, formal verification has emerged as a powerful complementary technique for uncovering deep corner case bugs, proving critical properties, and improving overall verification confidence. Yet many teams still struggle with practical questions: When should formal be used? Where does simulation scale better? And how can both methodologies work together effectively? This talk presents a practical industry perspective on the strengths, limitations, and real world deployment strategies of simulation and formal verification across IP, subsystem and SoC environments. The session will also discuss emerging trends including AI assisted verification flows, intelligent coverage analysis, and the evolving role of formal techniques in next generation SoC verification. Speaker biography: Muhammed Luqman Jukaku is a Principal SoC Verification Leader with more than 22 years of experience leading verification activities across IP, subsystem, and SoC for complex high performance semiconductor designs. He currently works at Synopsys, where he leads verification of complex multi-protocol interconnect and subsystem architectures for advanced interface and SoC platforms.

IEEE WIE AG Schenectady is going to organize WIE Distinguished Lecture (virtual webinar) on "Human System Engineering Initiatives: From Human Views to Human Readiness Levels" on 5 June 2026, Friday, 12-1 pm EDT. The speaker is Holly A. H. Handley, PhD, PE, the Interim Dean of the Interdisciplinary Schools and a Professor in the Engineering Management and System Engineering Department of Old Dominion University (ODU). This talk discusses the role of Human System Engineering within the System Engineering discipline. It describes two initiatives that are enabling better integration of humans and systems. The Human Views comprise a system architecture viewpoint that provides a perspective on the human roles, activities, and information flows required by a complex system. The Human Readiness Levels assess the degree to which human-focused requirements are incorporated into design decisions and the readiness of a system to interact with its human operator. Together these two efforts encourage System Engineering for the total system by supporting a comprehensive integration of the human component into the systems engineering effort, which is critical to the design, development, and operation of successful systems. Current standards and applications of both initiatives will be included. Speaker(s): Holly Handley Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/550987

Electromagnetic waves are characterized by their amplitude, frequency, and state of polarization -- also referred to as spin angular momentum (SAM), associated with circular polarization and recognized for over two centuries. In contrast, over the past three decades, growing attention has been directed toward orbital angular momentum (OAM), which arises from helical (twisted) phase fronts and provides an additional degree of freedom through its orthogonal modal structure. In this talk, we explore the use of OAM for integrated sensing and communications (ISAC), with the goal of enhancing spectral efficiency and spatial resolution in automotive scenarios. Unlike conventional uniform circular array (UCA)-based implementations, our approach employs a uniform linear array (ULA) with traveling-wave antennas to synthesize multiple Laguerre-Gaussian vortex beams. The proposed system embeds communication data within radar waveforms while enabling joint estimation of target position and velocity using radar-only frames. An OAM-based mode-division multiplexing strategy is used to separate sensing and communication functionalities, ensuring reliable parameter recovery. We conclude with perspectives on the future of ISAC systems.

In this talk, we focus on the recent developments toward distributed integrated sensing and communications (ISAC). We consider a broad definition of coexistence, which covers ISAC, collaborative communications, and sensing with interference. Toward fully realizing the coexistence of the two systems, optimization of resources for both new/futuristic sensing and wireless communications modalities is crucial. These synergistic approaches that exploit the interplay between state sensing and communications are both driving factors and opportunities for many current signal processing and information-theoretic techniques. Building on the existing approaches, the lecture focuses on highlighting emerging scenarios in collaborative and distributed ISAC, particularly at mm-Wave and THz frequencies, highly dynamic vehicular/automotive environments that would benefit from information exchange between the two systems. It presents the architectures and possible methodologies for mutually beneficial distributed co-existence and co-design, including sensor fusion and heterogeneously distributed radar and communications. +++++++++ Krishnamurthy Raghunandan is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

The San Francisco Bay Area chapter of the IEEE Computer Society invites to our free and open Virtual Tech Talks (no IEEE membership required): Speaker: Lakshmana Rao Koppada ((https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.linkedin.com/in/lakshmana-koppada/&sa=D&source=calendar&ust=1781490549069271&usg=AOvVaw11bsPeQi6ednCxDVhnMelu)) Title: GPU-Free Real-Time Utility Asset Anomaly Detection with IBM Granite TSPulse-R1 Abstract: Utility enterprises operate geographically distributed critical assets—such as pumps, tanks, flow meters, and substations that demand continuous health monitoring to avert service disruptions, environmental hazards, and substantial economic losses. Conventional centralized cloud-based Enterprise Asset Management systems incur high latency, excessive bandwidth consumption, and reliance on GPU acceleration, thereby impeding real-time response in connectivity-constrained environments. This paper introduces a GPU-free edge-to-cloud architecture for real-time anomaly detection that exploits the compact IBM Granite TSPulse-R1 time-series foundation model (approximately 1 million parameters). The framework executes lightweight CPU-only inference on edge gateways and transmits only concise anomaly summaries via Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT), realizing over 99.9% bandwidth reduction relative to raw data transfer. A novel sensor-weighted reconstruction error scoring mechanism prioritizes the most discriminative sensors, enhancing zero-shot multivariate detection performance. Rigorous evaluation on the Water Treatment dataset, a real-world industrial control system benchmark featuring 51 sensors and a 12.53% anomalous timestep ratio, demonstrates an average inference latency of 710.3 ms per 512-timestep chunk, a ROC-AUC of 0.717, and tolerance-adjusted recall exceeding 0.945 at ±20 timesteps. Scalability analysis reveals near-linear latency growth with increasing sensor counts and chunk sizes, confirming feasibility on resource-constrained edge devices. The proposed architecture delivers a scalable, cost-effective, and resilient predictive maintenance solution for critical infrastructure, providing a practical GPU-independent alternative to traditional cloud-centric paradigms while supporting robust operation in distributed utility networks. Bio: Lakshmana Rao Koppada (IETE Fellow, Senior Member IEEE, Professional Member of BCS) is a Digital Transformation Leader and Technical Architect at PwC with over 16 years of experience delivering large-scale enterprise modernization programs. Specializing in IBM Maximo, cloud platforms, and Red Hat OpenShift, he integrates AI/ML, IoT, and predictive analytics to improve asset reliability and operational efficiency.

Power electronics is a foundational technology that drives a wide range of important and emerging applications including cloud computing, wireless communications, robotics, and smart energy systems. By systematically managing the increased complexity in materials, circuits, and systems, new opportunities are created to greatly advance the functionality and performance of power electronics systems. This speech provides a few examples to illustrate the potential of managed complexity in power electronics design. These include: 1) modular and scalable architecture for systematically managed complexity in high performance circuits; 2) artificial intelligence and machine learning for systematically managed complexity in passive component modeling. This managed complexity approach addresses key challenges in emerging applications by overcoming traditional design barriers from new angles and redefining how power electronics are conceived and implemented in complex systems.

As emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and large-scale digital platforms become increasingly integrated into society, the need for responsible technology governance has never been greater. This educational session introduces participants to the DIITA Principles (IEEE Standards Association Industry Connections Program), a human- and planet-centered approach to guiding the design, deployment, and oversight of technology in an era of rapid innovation. Through an accessible exploration of governance, ethics, sustainability, transparency, and accountability, attendees will examine how technological decisions can create lasting impacts on individuals, communities, institutions, and the environment. The session highlights the importance of aligning innovation with broader societal goals, including long-term human well-being, environmental stewardship, and sustainable development. Drawing on real-world examples from AI, digital transformation, and emerging technologies, participants will gain insights into the DIITA Principles and their role in promoting responsible technology governance. The discussion will examine how these principles can help align innovation with human values, environmental sustainability, and long-term societal resilience. Participants will also explore how the DIITA Principles can provide a common framework for collaboration among technologists, policymakers, researchers, educators, and industry leaders working toward human and planetary flourishing. Designed for engineers, technology professionals, students, and decision-makers, this educational program aims to raise awareness of the critical role governance plays in shaping technology that not only advances innovation but also contributes to a more sustainable, equitable, and flourishing future for both humanity and the planet.

Audio compression is often proposed to improve the efficiency of multimodal large language models, but its impact on downstream task performance remains underexplored. This talk examines how semantic neural audio codecs behave under token reduction constraints, using cross-modal attention as a signal to discard frames with low semantic content. On audio question-answering benchmarks, attention-guided frame selection removes 10–30% of frames while matching baseline accuracy and answer consistency, and identifies a critical compression threshold (keep ratio ~0.7) below which performance degrades sharply. The talk also discusses an "answer consistency paradox" where models remain highly self-consistent (>98%) even as accuracy degrades and what this decoupling of consistency from correctness means for evaluating compressed multimodal systems in low-resource deployments.
