Wearable Real-Time Physiological Monitors For Austere Environments
A joint event of NH Computer Society and Communications Signal Processing Society.
Dr. Brian Telfer, MIT Lincoln Laboratory, observes that many commercial wearable devices are orinted to consumers, but do not provide actionable information for proper operation in austere, dangerous environments. Brian will report on progress on wearable sensors and analytics that can keep first responders safe from a variety of injuries, including overheating and musculoskeletal overuse, and also enhance human performance. He will describe an open system architecture to integrate multiple sensors.
For more details, including Webex link, contact Mike O'Connor, The Host.

Robotics Collaboration Models : Part 2
This is second talk in the RAS 2018 Talks series. The speaker, Chris Santos-Lang, will expand on his first talk on this topic and cover
"Calculations to Inform Assignment of Social Position".
Much as cells gain advantage by forming into interdependent bodies, humans and machines might gain advantage by forming into interdependent families, teams, companies, and so forth. This potential implies systems which leverage their own internal diversity, and prompts us to ask how one would need to organize to achieve such leverage. This talk will present objective calculations for common and potential forms of elitism. Open Source code will be shared and audience are invited to develop and test their own designs for increased social intelligence.

Predictive Fiction
In this talk Jim Isaak, President Emertius of the IEEE Computer Society, Past VP of the IEEE Society on the Social Implications of Technology, advocates that we need to get a strong handle on where technological change is going, and how to anticipate impact of the various trajectories. Jim will
explore the concept of "Fiction Prototyping" as a productive tool for in this regard. It uses a
a fairly constrained form of Science fiction that builds on our current understanding of science/technology to
project future scenarios and predict how they may affect society.
