SUMMARY:Regents Lecture: Howard Rheingold\, Jan 23
DESCRIPTION:Howard Rheingold offers a glimpse of the future of high-end online learning in which motivated self-learners collaborate via a variety of social media to create\, deliver\, and learn an agreed curriculum: a mutant variety of pedagogy that more closely resembles a peer-agogy. Rheingold proposes that our intention should be to teach ourselves how to teach ourselves online\, and to share what we learn. He will show how the use of social media in courses he has taught about social media issues led him to co-redesign his curriculum\, which led to more active participation by students in co-teaching the course. \n                Rheingold is an independent scholar and currently a guest lecturer at Stanford’s Department of Communication. A writer and designer\, he was among the first wave of creative thinkers who saw\, in computers and then in the Internet\, a way to form powerful new communities. \n                His 2002 book “Smart Mobs”\, which presaged Web 2.0 in predicting collaborative ventures like Wikipedia\, was the outgrowth of decades spent studying and living life online. An early and active member of the Well (he wrote about it in “The Virtual Community”)\, he went on to co-found HotWired and Electric Minds\, two groundbreaking web communities\, in the mid-1990s. Now active in Second Life\, he teaches\, writes and consults on social networking. His latest passion: teaching and workshopping participatory media literacy\, to make sure we all know how to read and make the new media that we’re all creating together. \n                This lecture is presented by UC’s Berkeley Center for New Media with support from the Regents’ Professorships and Lectureships Program. Co-sponsored by UC Berkeley School of Information.

SUMMARY:From Information to Foresight: Getting Beyond the Bits\, Jan 25
DESCRIPTION:All talks may be viewed on our \n                Webviewing at UC Davis: 1003 Kemper Hall \n                Webviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100 \n                Webviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506 \n                Abstract: \n                Data volumes are sky-rocketing\, and new sources and types of information are proliferating; we can now track and obtain data faster than ever before. But data is only of value if you can extract insight from it – insights that let you solve your challenges\, improve your processes\, attract new clients\, and be more nimble in your business. There is a real opportunity to harness this data and gain insight to improve our world – but to do so\, we must do more than capture information. We must correlate and align information across sources\, extract meaning from it\, and leverage that meaning to create value. This talk will describe some of the challenges of capturing\, integrating\, and analyzing information and some of the progress that has been made in terms of runtimes and tools to support these tasks\, as well as some ongoing research in this space. We will highlight some successful applications of these technologies in a variety of fields\, and close with a proposal to work together to advance the state of the art in these technologies and in their application. \n                Bio: \n                Laura Haas is an IBM Fellow\, and Director of IBM Research’s new Institute for Massive Data\, Analytics and Modeling; she also serves as a “catalyst” for ambitious research across IBM’s worldwide research labs. She was the Director of Computer Science at IBM’s Almaden Research Center from 2005 to 2011. From 2001-2005\, she led the Information Integration Solutions architecture and development teams in IBM’s Software Group. Previously\, Dr. Haas was a research staff member and manager at Almaden. She is best known for her work on the Starburst query processor (from which DB2 LUW was developed)\, on Garlic\, a system which allowed integration of heterogeneous data sources\, and on Clio\, the first semi-automatic tool for heterogeneous schema mapping. She has received several IBM awards for Outstanding Innovation and Technical Achievement\, an IBM Corporate Award for her work on information integration technology\, and the Anita Borg Institute Technical Leadership Award. Dr. Haas was Vice President of the VLDB Endowment Board of Trustees from 2004-2009\, and is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and the IBM Academy of Technology\, an ACM Fellow\, and Vice Chair of the board of the Computing Research Association.

SUMMARY:Energy Savings with LEDs\, Jan 27
DESCRIPTION:The complete schedule for the semester is online at \n                . All talks may be viewed on our \n                Webviewing at UC Davis: 1066 Kemper Hall \n                Webviewing at UC Merced: SE1 100 \n                Webviewing at UC Santa Cruz: SOE E2 Building\, Room 506 \n                Abstract: \n                Today lighting accounts for about 20% of the worldwide electricity consumption. Household lighting\, commercial lighting\, and street lighting are responsible for significant greenhouse gas emissions. Developments of new light emitting diodes (LED) can reduce the electricity consumption dedicated to lighting considerably. Light Emitting Diodes (LED) can become the perfect energy efficient substitute for the attractive but inefficient incandescent and halogen lighting. No other lighting technology can match the quality\, efficiency\, and lifetime of LED lighting. \n                In contrast to incandescent bulbs that create light and heat from filaments\, LEDs convert electricity with high efficiency directly into visible light. However\, there are a number of technical problems such as low color rendering that have to be solved before LED lighting will make a complete breakthrough. The efficiency of LED’s has doubled every third year and LED’s will within the near future become more energy efficient than most efficient conventional lighting sources. In addition to the energy savings\, LED’s have a number of other advantages: small and compact emitters with high flux\, they are robust\, no emission of UV- or IR- radiation when used for visible illumination\, and a long lifetime (20.000 – 100.000 hours) provided proper thermal management. In the talk I will review the basic physics of LEDs and I will discuss the new possibilities that LEDs offer.Finally\, I will discuss a number of new applications of LEDs where energy savings can be obtained.
