Abstract:
With the advent of the Smart Grid Evolution and new Regulatory Impacts such as NERC CIP, utility telecommunications infrastructures are stressed to scale and provide for new bandwidth growth. As Smart Grid telecommunications deployment moves beyond AMI to complete connectivity for control and monitoring of all elements in the Utility generation-transmission-distribution network, an explosion of bandwidth is about to occur. But is Ethernet/IP ready to provide access and transport of time-sensitive mission critical applications such as SCADA and Protective Relaying Communications? Recent test results of protective relaying latency times and priority performance over a network using DS0/T1 Packetizing Channel Muxes connected to Layer 3 MPLS enabled Routers and transported over a OC-192 SONET backbone will be discussed.

Increasingly, organizations rely on individuals who can successfully lead and manage technical teams. Most engineers spend the majority of their careers in management, but lack the necessary education or training. Many find the transition from engineer to manager difficult and frustrating but it need not be. The solution is a program to quickly gain the necessary attitudes and skills.

Join IEEE GOLD for “Geek in the Lead: Growing from Engineer to Manager” and learn tips that you can apply immediately to be effective in management, and build a solid foundation for a successful and rewarding career as a leader.

Visit the IEEE GOLD webinar website for more information on the session and speaker.

If you missed the October 2009 webinar, Gandhian Engineering, by Dr. R.A. Mashelkar, this session is now available for download at http://www.ieee.org/web/membership/gold/events/index.html.

The IEEE GOLD Committee is looking for members interested in contributing to the 2010 GOLD Webinar Program. If you have ideas on topics or would like to help organize these activities, please contact Lara Fast, MGA Young Professionals Program Manager at L.Fast@ieee.org.

The Past, Present, and Future of Supercomputing
by
Paul Buerger

Date: Thursday, December 17, 2009
Time: 7:00 PM

Location:
Upper Arlington Main Library, Meeting Room A
2800 Tremont Road, Upper Arlington 43221

Abstract:
Whether you call it supercomputing or high-performance computing or high-end computing, it is an interesting niche of the computing universe. This talk involves a casual stroll through some interesting computer hardware of the past forty or so years with some speculation about future directions.

The principal application has been technical computing. That is, computation in the interest of science and engineering. Large computing systems have been used in finance for a few years and we have seen where that led.

Early supercomputers were just the fastest systems around. However, from early on parallelism has played a major role. From vectors to clusters, parallelism at some level has been involved. Currently, supercomputers consist of thousands of PC's or game computers. Future supercomputers may consist of millions of elements designed for cell phones or other hand-held devices.

Dr. Buerger has been involved with computational science and scientific computing for over forty years. For much of that time he was supporting scientific researchers in his roles in technical support at Ohio Supercomputer Center. He has served COCACM in several roles.
