Instructors/Speakers Prof. Anil Misra Professor Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering The University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas, U.S.A. Abstract Granular materials take a variety of forms, spanning the spectrum from highly consolidated dense solids formed of particulate precursors to confined packing of non-cohesive particles. In all their forms, these materials are characterized by complex structures and compositions. More importantly, they share the common trait that their behavior at the macro-scale, that contains large numbers of grains (>106), is profoundly affected by the grain-scale interactions. For many important problems in engineering and science, continuum description of their mechanical behavior is desired. Discrete atomic or coarse-grained models often pose insurmountable challenges. Granular micromechanics method is a practical approach for continuum modeling ...

Instructors/Speakers Prof. KWONG Tak Wu Sam Head and Professor of the Department of Computer Science City University of Hong Kong Hong Kong China Abstract In June 6th 2016, Cisco released the White paper, VNI Forecast and Methodology 2015-2020, reported that 82 percent of Internet traffic will come from video applications such as video surveillance, content delivery network, so on by 2020. It also reported that Internet video surveillance traffic nearly doubled, Virtual reality traffic quadrupled, TV grew 50 percent and similar increases for other applications in 2015. The annual global traffic will first time exceed the zettabyte(ZB;1000 exabytes) threshold in 2016, and will reach 2.3 ZB by 2020. It implies that 1.886ZB belongs to video data. Thus, in order to ... |

Instructors/Speakers Prof. Chengzheng SUN Nanyang Technological University Singapore Abstract Nowadays, collaborative editing systems, such Google Docs, Microsoft Office Online, Dropbox Paper, Box Notes, and CodoxWave (for supporting read-time editing in a wide range of existing web browser-based editors, including Gmail, Wikipedia, Evernote, and WordPress), are ubiquitous and commonly used by hundreds of millions of people around the world. Research on collaborative editing, however, started in the 1980s as a niche area (with a small number of persistent researchers) in the field of Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), and was driven mainly by academic curiosity. This niche area has been continuously evolving for over 3 decades and eventually resulted in a large scale adoption in major industry products in recent years. In ... |
