Fabrizio Granelli and John Brown will deliver presentations on emer­ging technologies and concepts in ICT and engineering on October 19 from 6pm to 8pm at the Malta Coun­cil for Science and Technology, Villa Bighi, Kalkara. The activity is orga­nised by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Malta Section to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the IEEE Region 8.

Prof. Granelli is an associate professor in telecommunications at the University of Trento’s Depart­ment of Information Engineering and Computer Science.

His presentation is on the design of green networking. He will provide an overview of the current status of the internet in terms of energy efficiency, focusing on the back­bone, wireless access and data cen­tre design methodologies re­quired to enter the era of the green internet.

Meanwhile, Brown will talk about ubiquitous computing and calm technology. His presentation will focus on the advances in the evol­ution of human computer inter­action via a human-centred en­deavour, and the development of a new empirical tool to measure the calm in our technology.

He has been recognised by two of Canada’s networks of centres of excellence for his research in workplace biomechanics and applied mathematics.
