Ontario Power Generation’s Darlington New Nuclear Project (DNNP) is at the forefront of deploying Small Modular Reactor (SMR) technology in Canada, anchored by the GE Vernova Hitachi BWRX-300. As North America’s first commercial, grid-scale SMR, DNNP plans up to four units totaling 1,200 MW. The project introduces advanced safety features, including natural circulation cooling, integral isolation valves, and passive heat removal, while supporting thousands of jobs and boosting Ontario’s economy. A collaboration between OPG, GE Vernova Hitachi, AtkinsRéalis, and Aecon-Kiewit, DNNP strengthens Ontario’s clean energy leadership and sets a model for SMR deployment globally. With construction underway, DNNP will help meet rising electricity demand, advance electrification, and deliver reliable, carbon-free power, showcasing nuclear innovation’s vital role in climate action and economic growth. A live Q&A with registered attendees will follow the presentation. Please visit our website at bit.ly/nuclear_series2 for additional details. Recorded webinars will be posted there shortly thereafter for free on-demand viewing. Speaker(s): Michael Takla, Event Moderator: Maike Luiken Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/548510

Join us as we host executives from Corbins (NOX Group), including Kevin Angle, PE, and Amber Mitchell and executive leadership. This session is designed specifically for EE and CE students (or any engineer!) looking to bridge the gap between the classroom and the field. Our guest speakers will dive into: - Defining Success: Pro-tips for navigating the Electrical and Computer Engineering landscape. - The "Hidden" Map: Uncovering high-growth career paths and emerging trends you won't find in a textbook. - Industry Deep-Dive: Real-world opportunities in the booming Data Center and Construction sectors. Whether you are looking for your first internship or preparing for graduation, this is your chance to gain the "insider insight" needed to negotiate your way into your career. Bring your questions for an open Q&A! Speaker(s): KEVIN ANGLE, AMBER MITCHELL Agenda: - Defining Success: Pro-tips for navigating the Electrical and Computer Engineering landscape. - The "Hidden" Map: Uncovering high-growth career paths and emerging trends you won't find in a textbook. - Industry Deep-Dive: Real-world opportunities in the booming Data Center and Construction sectors. Bldg: Auditorium, One University Way, San Antonio, Texas, United States, 78224

1 event,[] Early registration and discounted pricing ends at 11:59 PM on March 29th. Registration and payment for this workshop must be completed before 11:59 PM Sunday April 5, 2026 to ensure you will have the class materials in time for the workshop. Friday April 10, 2026 is the final day for registering, but without workshop materials. This two-day workshop will take a deep dive into NEC 2026 National Electrical Code changes. The NEC changes will be reviewed focusing on major areas of the power distribution systems which are affected by the latest changes rather than by the typical Article by Article, Section by Section methods. Examples will be worked through as a class to understand how these NEC changes will change how power distribution systems are engineered. This Workshop is intended for Electrical Designers, Estimators, and Field Engineers, and is highly recommended as a review supplement for those preparing to take the Electrical P.E. exam. In addition, there will be exhibits by industry manufacturers and suppliers. Attendees are advised to bring a laptop or notebook. Power and limited WIFI will be available. Upon completion of the workshop, participants will receive a PDH certificate for sixteen hours. The workshop fee includes breakfast tacos, breakfast beverages, break refreshments, and a copy of the 2026 NEC Handbook. Registration must be completed by Sunday, 4/05/2026 to ensure we will have the class materials in time for the workshop. Friday, 4/10/2026 is the final day for registering online. Walk-ins will be accepted but must have a check for the full amount made out to IEEE-CTS. Membership Status Thru March 29, 2026 After March 29, 2026 IEEE Member $400 $600 Non-IEEE Member $600 $800 IEEE Life Members & Students $300 $500 Why Engineers Should Attend This seminar bridges the gap between minimum code compliance and sound engineering design. Attendees will gain: - A clear understanding of how the 2026 NEC changes affect design decisions. - Insight into the intent behind new provisions to help ensure compliance, safety, and reliability. - Practical examples and applications relevant to commercial, industrial, healthcare, renewable energy, and EV infrastructure projects. - Awareness of how jurisdictional adoption of the NEC will impact upcoming design cycles. - Tools to identify potential design pitfalls before they become costly field issues. Who Should Attend: Electrical design engineers Consulting engineers AHJs and inspectors Project managers Facility engineer EPC contractors Anyone responsible for ensuring NEC compliance in electrical system design Co-sponsored by: James Mercier Speaker(s): Thomas Domitrovich, Agenda: Day 1 – Chapters 1–4: General Requirements & Foundational Changes This first day focuses on the core of the NEC—the general requirements applicable to almost every electrical installation. Key Topics Include: - NEC Reorganization for 2026 and Beyond Understanding structural changes to the code, future reorganization plans, and how these revisions align with modern system design, renewable integration, and digital infrastructure. - Arc-Flash Labeling Requirements (110.16) Review of updated labeling rules, new informational elements, coordination challenges, and the relationship with incident-energy calculations and equipment documentation. - Working Space and Access Requirements Important changes related to clearances, dedicated space, and equipment accessibility—critical for safe operation, maintenance, and compliance. - Load Calculation Updates Revisions to foundational calculation methods affecting services, feeders, and branch circuits, including new demand factors and technology-driven adjustments. - Electric Shock Protection Updated shock-protection provisions, evolving definitions, and requirements spanning GFCI, GFPE, and personnel protection throughout general installations. Day 2 – Chapters 5–8: Special Occupancies, Equipment, and Systems Day two transitions to special requirements and emerging technologies—areas experiencing rapid growth and significant code activity. Key Topics Include: - Interconnected Power Systems Requirements for interconnected sources, microgrids, and hybrid systems, with emphasis on coordination, grounding, and safety controls. - Healthcare Facilities Updates affecting essential electrical systems, patient-care spaces, wiring methods, and reliability expectations for critical healthcare infrastructure. - Photovoltaic (PV) and Wind Applications Latest changes influencing renewable-energy design, inverter-based systems, rapid shutdown, grounding, and overcurrent protection. - Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Updated requirements addressing higher-power charging, bidirectional systems, load management, and infrastructure integration. - Electric Shock Protection in Special Applications Enhanced requirements for pools, fountains, agricultural buildings, marinas, and other environments with elevated shock hazards.

Cloud object storage systems achieve scalability and fault isolation by sharding metadata across independently managed domains. While most metadata operations naturally scale under this model, rename remains a fundamental challenge, as it requires atomicity and strong consistency across multiple metadata owners. This challenge is exacerbated when source and destination metadata reside in different shards, operate without shared storage, and cannot depend on global locks or global clocks. This talk presents the design of a distributed rename protocol for cloud-scale object storage systems, enabling atomic renames across independent metadata domains. The protocol models rename as a recoverable, multi-stage state machine rather than a monolithic transaction. It relies on explicit transaction tracking, shard-local invariants, and idempotent transitions, allowing failures and concurrent operations to safely drive in-progress renames toward completion or abort without centralized coordination. Speaker(s): Amber Agenda: 6:25 to 6:35 PM - Open for participants to enter and network. 6:35 to 6:40 PM - IEEE LM and CTCN Business meeting and to introduce speaker. 6:40 to 7:55PM - Formal Program and Q&A. Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/550647
