Hybrid Event Details Are you involved with Computer Game Development? Do you know of staff or students at academic institutions who are? If so, please share this information on this event with them so they can attend this year's Competition. The top 10 of this year's entries of the games' first stage submitted will compete and be judged by professionals from the Computer Game Development industry. Building on the success of last year's competition, this year's is also being held in a Hybrid format! We'll be in-person at Chapman University, and virtually via Twitch (while the teams present to the judges via Discord). The IEEE GameSIG Intercollegiate Game Competition, now in its twelfth year, is an educational outreach project of IEEE GameSIG (which is part of the Orange County IEEE Computer Society, but does not geographically limit competing teams). The purpose of this event is to help students develop and demonstrate their skills at game design, development and promotion. They are challenged to show off a playable level of a game, live, in front of an audience of experienced game industry personnel and guests (which we are hoping you will join). The Computer Society Publication Office produced a 9 minute Youtube video about a previous live Competition/Showcase which is available at (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bjJW7foOBA) The competition typically attracts 30 to 50 entries, from which the top ten are chosen to present their work to the "live" audience and judges. Three primary awards are given, plus a series of special awards for unique achievements. These special awards are different each year based on the nature of what the developers are showing. Their is also a People's Choice Award voted on by those attending in person or virtually. More details on the competition can be found at (https://gamesigshowcase.org/) This year's showcase will be hosted from the Chapman University, Orande CA, and held Online via Twitch. The Twitch stream will start at 1:00 PM (PT) and end by 5:30 PM (PT).Registered individuals will receive reminders about the Showcase as we get closer to the event, with the Twitch link provided the night before the Showcase. The Twitch stream will be public. Suggested donation is $25.00 for in-person attendance; there is no charge for virtual attendance, or for in person students , the under-employed, judges, staff and invited guests. - For those qualifying for free attendance, select "Get Tickets", the number of tickets and then "Check out". - For credit card sponsorship and support or donations, payment can be found as ticketing options at registration check-out. - For sponsorship payments, we'll contact you to acknowledge and verify processing. If unsure, please contact us. Support in check-form are preferred to avoid processing fees. - For inquiries and larger sponsorship or support, contact us for more information at [email protected].

Welcome back Audion Assemblers and Fabrication Battalion! Our intermediate group (Audion Assemblers) will be learning about model-view-controllers and how to remake their old games in a better, optimized fashion. In additon to this, they will be learning how to integrate their Micro:Bit's into their games to use them as video game controllers. This is similar to what they have already done in semesters past, but this time they are making everything work together. Our advance group (Fabrication Battalion) will continue designing their PCB's for their handheld gaming console: the Game:Bit Advance. Last semester, they were almost finished with their schematics. Starting Valentines day, they will begin their design processes for laying out the PCB. Want to learn more?

Abstract: Cyber-physical systems (CPS), such as robots and self-driving cars, demand rigorous scheduling to prevent failure, where every millisecond of processing time can be critical. These systems often rely on heterogeneous computing environments, which include CPUs, GPUs, and specialized accelerators, to meet their computational needs efficiently. However, leveraging these diverse processing units to fulfill strict physical constraints remains a significant challenge, as existing scheduling solutions often fall short of addressing the complexities involved in a comprehensive manner. This talk by Dr. Mehmet E. Belviranli delves into the intricate world of creating efficient compute schedules for CPS that not only cater to their diverse computational hardware but also adhere to real-world constraints critical for system safety. We begin by examining the role of neural network (NN) inference in CPS, exploring strategies to balance energy consumption, latency and throughput by distributing the layers of NN across different accelerators. We then introduce a novel, end-to-end framework that integrates physical constraints, heterogeneous computational resources, and latency considerations into a cohesive mixed-integer linear problem, demonstrating through case studies how this approach yields optimal scheduling solutions under varied conditions. Through this exploration, we aim to shed light on the untapped potential of heterogeneous computing in enhancing the reliability and performance of CPS. We will also outline future directions in developing a more robust ecosystem for these complex computing environments, highlighting our contribution to this evolving field.

On Science Thursdays, students from around Texas drop in and explore the Bullock Museum, see demonstrations, and participate in hands-on activities with STEM experts from (http://centexeweek.org/). On May 2, 2024, IEEE Central Texas Section will provide the experts. The CTS STEM Committee is putting together hands-on demonstrations of electrical phenomena for the students -- Jacob's Ladder, hand-cranked electrical power generation, Van de Graaff Generator, etc. Within IEEE this event is hosted by the Central Texas Section Life Member Affinity Group. This is a very enjoyable way for retired engineers to show curious youngsters interesting science. Register to volunteer. John Purvis, [email protected], is the coordinator. Agenda: Meet at the Bullock Museum at 9:45 AM for orientation and to receive your assigned post plus some elementary preparation. From 10:00 AM to 1:30 PM enjoy helping the students at your assigned post. Meet at the Star Cafe in the museum for lunch or refreshments. Bullock Museum, 1800 N.

On November 2, 2023, Dr. Alan Stern, a planetary scientist and associate vice president of Southwest Research Institute’s Space Sector, flew aboard the Virgin Galactic commercial spaceship Unity on a suborbital space mission. During the roughly 60-minute mission, first mated to its carrier aircraft VMS Eve, and then horizontally launched into space, Stern tested equipment and trained for a future suborbital flight where he will conduct two NASA experiments in space.VSS Unity took off from New Mexico’s Spaceport America near Las Cruces, at 9:00 a.m. MT and landed at 9:59 a.m. Stern traveled 54.2 miles above the Earth, roughly 10 times higher than the cruising altitude of most commercial airliners, reaching a top speed approaching Mach 3.During the flight, Stern tested equipment monitoring his vital signs in preparation for a NASA-funded experiment he will perform in space aboard a second suborbital flight. He also conducted training and risk-reduction activities in preparation for his NASA flight to evaluate the spacecraft’s suitability for making astronomy observations in space. F or that experiment, Stern will use the Southwest Ultraviolet Imaging System (SWUIS), an innovative, wide-field, visible and ultraviolet imager, which has flown on two Space Shuttle missions. Stern led the development of SWUIS at SwRI as its principal investigator.Southwest Research Institute’s internal research and development program funded Stern’s journey into space. The program supports research initiatives that ultimately benefit clients.“This first human spaceflight by a SwRI staff member was a thrilling and truly unforgettable experience, and I’m already excited about my next trip for NASA,” Stern said. “What I find even more exciting is the idea that this is the beginning of a new era for SwRI space scientists, when we can conduct research in space ourselves. I believe this is the beginning of something pivotal.”Speaker(s): Dr. Alan Stern, Agenda: 12:00 - Gather and pick-up box lunches12:15 - Introductions12:20 - Talk beginsBldg: Building 51, Institute Archives, Southwest Research Institute, 6220 Culebra Roac, San Antonio, Texas, United States, 78238
