SUMMARY:Diagnostics by Design\, Jan 11-12\, 2014
DESCRIPTION:The Diagnostics by Design hackathon is a cross-communities effort to bridge the gap between makers and do-it-yourself innovators and the sphere of global health. The event is posed as a challenge to participants: with minimal materials or through innovative coding\, tackle a technological or informatic need in the space of point of care diagnostics. These can range from generating DIY lab equipment alternatives for medical clinics with limited resources\, informatics for disease monitoring\, or redesign of diagnostic tools for resource limited settings. Attendees from the maker communities will work with participants from academic and professional spaces: the goal is an interface between the innovative expertise of the former with the needs assessments and field knowledge of the latter. We not only explore but get hands on experience with pressing health and design needs.

SUMMARY:TRUST Security Seminar\, Jan 23
DESCRIPTION:Financial and trade secret theft\, fraud\, technical attacks\, privacy intrusions\, malware and other online criminal activity is a significant problem. Millions of internet users and companies have already been victimized and perpetrators have caused considerable economic harm to the online economy. Increasing ubiquity (e.g. social media\, mobile platforms)\, more valuable assets in more places (e.g. the cloud\, online banking etc) and increasingly sophisticated and organized adversaries have created a problem that cannot be ignored. What to do? Get active\, that’s what! This discussion will explore how companies can develop proactive programs to defend themselves and enforce their rights\, including investigation\, technical defenses\, private legal enforcement\, law enforcement partnerships and user education. \nGabriel M. Ramsey\, a partner in the Silicon Valley office\, is a member of the Intellectual Property Group\, and a leader of the Entertainment & Gaming Group and the Privacy\, Data Security & Internet Safety Group. \nMr. Ramsey focuses his practice on intellectual property litigation. In 2012\, Mr. Ramsey was named one of the top 75 IP litigators in California by The Daily Journal. In 2013\, Mr. Ramsey was recognized as an “IP Star” by Managing Intellectual Property magazine. \nMr. Ramsey has substantial experience in high technology and entertainment related matters involving copyright\, trademark\, trade secret and patent law. He has significant experience in carrying out Internet enforcement actions involving cybercrime\, fraud and deceptive activity\, brand violations\, intellectual property infringement and privacy breaches. He also has handled many licensing matters and general commercial disputes.

SUMMARY:Electronic Materials Reaching Out To Mechanical\, Optical And Thermal Functionalities\, Jan 24
DESCRIPTION:Electronic materials are materials in which mobile electrons play an active role in defining their relevant properties. However\, their functionalities and applications are not necessarily limited to the electronic sector.  \nIn this talk I will discuss our recent efforts in extending our understanding and engineering of electronic materials to fields dominated by mechanical\, optical or thermal processes.  \nSpecifically\, I will highlight three projects: phase transition-driven micro solid engine\, point defects-enhanced thermoelectrics and molecularly gated luminescence in monolayer semiconductors. \n*******\nThis past month Prof. Wu won the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE)\, which he adds to the NSF Career award and the DOE Early Career Award. He received his Ph.D. here at UC Berkeley in Applied Science & Technology before doing a postdoc at Harvard.

SUMMARY:Does Rebound Offset the Savings from Energy Efficiency?\, Jan 29
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nImproving the efficiency with which we use energy is often said to be the most cost-effective way to reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. Yet\, such improvements usually lower the cost of using energy-intensive goods and may create wealth from the energy savings\, both of which lead to increased energy use\, a “rebound” effect. Disagreements about the magnitude of energy efficiency rebound are immense and play a central role in debates over the role energy efficiency can play in combating climate change. But these differing views seem to stem as much from the lack of a common framework for the analysis as from different estimates of key parameters. I present a theoretical framework that parses rebound into economic income and substitution effects. The framework helps shed new light on how rebound is affected by the pricing of energy\, as well as by the degree to which consumers optimize their consumption. I then explore the implications of this framework for measurement of rebound\, examining rebound from improved auto fuel economy and lighting efficiency. The illustrative calculations I carry out suggest that rebound is unlikely to that more than offset the savings from energy efficiency investments (known as “backfire”)\, but rebound is likely to reduce the net savings by roughly 10% to 40% from these energy efficiency improvements.\n——————- \nLive broadcast at  http://video.citris.berkeley.edu/playlists/webcast.

SUMMARY:TRUST Security Seminar\, Jan 30
DESCRIPTION:With the tremendous growth in cloud-based services\, the web platform is now easily the most widely used application platform. In this talk\, I will present our work towards developing a secure client-side for web applications. I will discuss three directions: secure protocols\, secure applications and secure user experience. First\, we present work on providing a formal foundation for web security protocols. We formalize the typical web attacker model and identify two broadly applicable security goals. We also identify an abstraction of the web platform that is amenable to automated analysis yet able to express subtle attacks missed by humans. Using a model checker\, our work automatically identified a previously unknown flaw in a widely used Kerberos-like authentication protocol for the web. \nSecond\, we present work on improving assurance in client-side web applications. We identify pervasive over-privileging in client-side web applications and present a new architecture that relies on privilege separation to mitigate vulnerabilities. Our design uses standard primitives and enables a 6x to 10000x reduction in the trusted computing base with only 13 lines modified. \nLastly\, we present the results of a large-scale measurement study to empirically asses whether browser security warnings are as ineffective as popular opinion suggests. We used Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome’s in-browser telemetry to observe over 25 million warning impressions in situ. Our results demonstrate that security warnings can be effective in practice; security experts and system architects should not dismiss the goal of communicating security information to end users.and secure interaction design to achieve this vision. \nDevdatta is a graduate student interested in computer security working on security of software\, primarily focused on web application security. He is part of Dawn Song’s research group at UC Berkeley. Devdatta is also an invited expert on the W3C’s Web Application Security Working Group.

SUMMARY:Photonic Lab-on-a-Chip: Merging Photonics and Microfluidics\, Jan 31
DESCRIPTION:A premise of the lab-on-a-chip paradigm is the integration of several processing stages of a chemical or biochemical analytical procedure together with microfluidics and detection methods. This entails reliability\, sensitivity and specificity of the analytical systems. Although electrochemical and mechanical approaches are common\, optical detection remains predominant\, mainly due to its non-invasiveness\, high sensitivity and small footprint.  \nIn this respect\, many research groups – including our own – have concentrated their efforts in developing photonic lab-on-a-chip (PhLoC). \nIn this seminar we will show how it is possible to implement advanced PhLoC with an outstanding level of integration\, but only requiring a maximum of two\, non-critical photolithographic steps. Here\, using only polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)\, air and buffer as constituent materials\, high quality micro-optical elements can be defined together with arbitrarily complex microfluidic networks. \nSeveral examples from our lab research will be presented\, including more advanced configurations. In the last part of this seminar\, new approaches will also be introduced\, such as the electrically tunable 1×5 optofluidic router for on-chip light routing. Such system can redirect light from an optical input channel into five output channels by exploiting liquid–liquid mirrors\, which are aligned using integrated electrowetting-on- dielectrics (EWOD) actuators.
