With the advent of smart products, we are surrounded by wireless devices communicating via different technologies, like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, LTE, 5G, etc. When designing such products, it is important to test their performance inside different indoor and outdoor environments, for both coverage and interference. WinProp offers highly accurate and fast propagation models for almost every standard technology. This presentation will give an overview of WinProp capabilities for wireless network coverage analysis, with live <a href="http://demonstrations.Speaker(s):" target="_blank" title="demonstrations.Speaker(s):">demonstrations.Speaker(s): Gopinath Gampala , Dr. C.J.

Gallium nitride (GaN) power devices have only recently become available commercially from different copmpanies. The new devices enable the design of converters at higher frequencies and efficiencies than those achievable with conventional Si devices. This webinar will review the characteristics and figures of marit of different types GaN devices enhancement and depletion mode and will give the status of vertical GaN power devices. In addition, the challenges encountered in GaN-based converter design are considered, such as the consequences of faster switching on gate driver design and board layout. Other issues such as unique reverse conduction behavior, dynamic RDS_ON, breakdown mechanisms, thermal design, device availability, and reliability qualification will be also <a href="http://discussed.Speaker(s):" target="_blank" title="discussed.Speaker(s):">discussed.Speaker(s): Tanya, EV.2.184 room,EV-Bulding, 1515 Sainte‑Catherine Street West, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, H3G 1M8

Generic Large Language Models (GLLMs) are continuously being released with increased size and capabilities, promoting the abilities of these tools as universal problem solvers. While the reliability of GLLMs' responses is questionable in many situations, these are augmented/ retrofitted with external resources for different applications including <a href="http://cybersecurity.The" target="_blank" title="cybersecurity.The">cybersecurity.The talk will discuss major security concerns of these pre-trained models: first GLLMs are prone to adversarial manipulation such as model poisoning, reverse engineering and side-channel cyberattacks. Second, the security issues related to LLM-generated codes using open-source libraries/codelets for software development can involve software supply chain attacks. These may result in information disclosure, access to restricted resources, privilege escalation, and complete system <a href="http://takeover.This" target="_blank" title="takeover.This">takeover.This talk will also cover the benefits and risks of using GLLMs in cybersecurity, particularly, in malware detection, log analysis, intrusion detection, etc. I will highlight the need for diverse AI approaches (non-LLM-based smaller models) trained with application-specific curated data, fine-tuned for well-tested security functionalities in identifying and mitigating emerging cyber threats including zero-day <a href="http://attacks.Speaker(s):" target="_blank" title="attacks.Speaker(s):">attacks.Speaker(s): Prof. Dipankar DasguptaAgenda: 20:00 Hours - START of Distinguished Lecture21:00 Hours - END of Distinguished Lecture21:00 Hours - Start of Q&A, Discussions, Thoughts, etcALL times are in EDT/EST formatVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/486071
