IEEE 100: Engineering a Universal Language: Mastering IEEE 100 Standard Terminology (2nd Standard Marathon Program 2026)
This session will explore the critical role of standardized terminology in engineering practice, project development, compliance, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Participants will learn how IEEE 100 establishes a universal technical language, reduces ambiguity in design and documentation, and supports system interoperability and safety across modern electrical and electronic engineering fields. Real-world examples will demonstrate how mastering IEEE 100 terminology ensures precision in technical communication and professional excellence. PDH certificates will be provided. Offered by the IEEE Oklahoma City Section as part of the Standard Marathon Program. Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/558800

IEEE PES Fort Worth Monthly Meeting – June 16, 2026
For our June meeting, we are happy to welcome Karthik Bojja from Wolters Kluwer to come speak on AI Automation Presentation: In today world DevOps is no longer just about automating pipelines or speeding up deployments. It is evolving into something much smarter. With AI integration, we are moving toward systems that can learn, adapt, and respond autonomously. In traditional DevOps, when something breaks, teams rely on alerts, logs, and manual intervention to fix issues. With AI-driven automation, failures can be predicted before they happen. By analyzing patterns in logs, metrics, and system behavior, AI can identify anomalies early and either alert the team or automatically trigger remediation steps. This leads to the concept of self-healing systems. In a modern cloud environment, if a service goes down, the system can automatically restart it, reroute traffic, or roll back a faulty deployment without human intervention. This reduces downtime and improves overall reliability. AI also enhances observability by turning raw data into meaningful insights. Instead of just monitoring systems, teams can enable intelligent decision-making within the pipeline. Combining DevOps with AI shifts organizations from reactive operations to proactive and predictive systems, allowing teams to focus more on innovation and less on troubleshooting. Speaker Bio: Karthik Bojja is an Enterprise Senior Software Engineer at Wolters Kluwer, based in Dallas, USA, with extensive experience building and scaling enterprise-grade technology solutions. He specializes in system architecture, cloud-native applications, API design, and DevOps automation, focusing strongly on delivering secure, reliable, and high-performing platforms. In his current role, Karthik collaborates with cross-functional global teams to develop solutions that meet complex business and regulatory requirements. Karthik is a Senior Member of IEEE, where he actively contributes to advancing technical excellence, innovation, and professional mentorship within the engineering community. He is passionate about fostering innovation and guiding emerging talent, regularly engaging in knowledge-sharing initiatives and community-driven programs. With a strong foundation in modern software engineering practices and a deep interest in emerging technologies, Karthik brings both technical expertise and practical insights to every initiative he undertakes. He is particularly interested in evaluating innovative ideas, assessing their real-world impact, and supporting continuous learning within the technology ecosystem. Karthik is committed to contributing to professional communities through roles such as judging, mentorship, and leadership, where he can help drive meaningful impact and support the growth of future technology leaders. As with all of our meetings, we will be providing lunch. If you do not pay online beforehand, we will not be purchasing lunch for you. Please reach out if there are any issues with payment and we will try to figure it out prior to the meeting. In my experience, Paypal is the easiest and has had the least issues in the past. Excited to see everyone on the 16th! Bldg: 777 Main, 777 Main St, Suite 2500, Fort Worth, Texas, United States, 76102, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/552856

Virtual AI Safety workshop & discussion
Over the course of this workshop, we'll explore: - Superintelligence: What it means for an AI system to surpass human intelligence across domains, and how this differs from today's AI. - Power and Control: Why advanced AI could wield enormous economic, political, and strategic influence. - Misalignment risks: How systems pursuing the wrong objectives could cause harm even without malicious intent. - Societal Choices: How decisions made today may shape weather AI becomes a tool we controls or a force we struggle to contain. This workshop is for: - A clear, non-technical introduction to core ideas from AI safety and existential risks. - Live demonstrations of current AI capabilities, to ground abstract concerns in real systems. - Small-group discussions and thought experiments that connect AI risks to everyday life, institutions, and incentives. - A better mental model for evaluating headlines, hype, and claims about AI progress. Speaker(s): , Kilian Agenda: Topics Explored - What is AI / AGI / ASI - History & Progress - The Path to AGI - Risks & Benifits - Instrumental Convergance - Self Preservation & Goal Preservation - Resource Aquisition - AI Alignment - AI Control - Loss of Control Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/561283
MOVE USA JUN 2026 Tech Talk – Hurricane Formation and Lifecycle
The Science Behind Hurricane Formation and Lifecycle Around the world, hurricanes reshape coastlines, disrupt lives, and threaten communities. In this talk Quinton Lawton, ASP Postdoctoral Fellow II, will discuss the basic science behind the formation, growth, and lifecycle of these powerful storms. A major focus of the talk will be the groundbreaking research currently being done to better predict hurricane formation. Long before these storms make landfall, they often begin as smaller weather disturbances known as African easterly waves. Understanding how these atmospheric precursors form and grow is critical for predicting extreme weather and mitigating its impacts. We will also explore recent advances in meteorological prediction, including new advancements in Artificial Intelligence-driven forecast systems. The presentation will conclude with a look at the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season. We will discuss how global patterns like El Niño influence the behavior of African easterly waves and hurricanes from year to year. Understanding this connection provides a clearer outlook for what the tropics might have in store over the coming months.
