Arthur Rosenfeld, Professor of Physics Emeritus at UC Berkeley, was the last graduate student of Nobelist Enrico Fermi. In 1955 he joined the Physics faculty at UC Berkeley and the research group of Luis Alvarez. In 1974, in response to the OPEC oil embargo, Rosenfeld switched to the new field of efficient use of energy, and founded the LBNL Center for Building Science, which he led until 1994, when he was appointed Senior Advisor to the Department of Energy, Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy.
Over the next several decades, economic development and anti-poverty programs will likely lift the incomes of the world’s poor. In this paper, we study the implications for energy use, focusing on the accumulation of energy-using assets.
You are invited to the MOT Open House. Stop by and meet the members of the Management of Technology (MOT) Program. We will answer any questions you might have about the MOT Program, the MOT Certificate, fellowships, lecture series, and much more. We look forward to meeting you.
This work analyzes the effect of replay attacks on a control system. We assume an attacker wishes to disrupt the operation of a control system in steady state. In order to inject an exogenous control input without being detected the attacker will hijack the sensors, observe and record their readings for a certain amount of time and repeat them while carrying out his attack.
This newsletter covers the recent SCHEME meeting to promote collaborations of engineers, doctors, and health administrators; and the Teleimmersion for Physicians project
Opinion is notoriously ill-defined and subject to biases and uncertainty principles. On March 15 2010, the U.S. State Department launched Opinion Space, a visualization tool for world opinion developed by students and colleagues at the UC Berkeley Center for New Media.
The Obama Administration is aggressively innovating in order to use information technology to improve health. Unprecedented amounts of health data will be made available, and the Administration is encouraging the development of Web 2.0 and other technologies to transform that data into useful tools for understanding public policy, selecting insurance coverage and evaluating the quality of providers.
Recent events in the field of climate change have confused both the public and many “experts.” I will try to elucidate what has been happening. Two out of three climate groups show no global warming for the past 13 years.
This talk will survey results of the Secure Machine Learning group at UC Berkeley. We will discuss machine learning applied to security. Unlike conventional approaches to machine learning, security presents Byzantine adversaries who adapt to various techniques and attempt to make machine learning systems mislearn.
