[Aspuru-Guzik group list] [iic-seminars] IIC Seminar April 23--Microsoft's Tony Hey on eScience, Semantic Computing and the Cloud

by Helene Tingle

Initiative in Innovative Computing @ Harvard Seminar Series Wednesday, April 23, 2008; 4:00pm 60 Oxford Street, Room 330 Tony Hey, Corporate Vice President of the External Research Division of Microsoft Research Seminar Title: eScience, Semantic Computing and the Cloud: Towards a Smart Cyberinfrastructure for eScience Abstract: In the next decade, frontier research will require collaborations of globally distributed groups in fields that may have hundreds of terabytes of research data. Addressing the challenges of the “eScience” agenda will require an ecosystem of semantic computing technologies to facilitate information sharing and discovery, enable reasoning and allow us to start thinking about knowledge and how it can be handled by computers. Software+service, with scientific services delivered from the cloud, will become an increasingly accepted model for research. This talk will review this vision and explain the need for semantic-oriented computing by exploring projects that have successfully applied relevant technologies. Upcoming IIC Seminars: Continue to stay up to date with our IIC Seminar Schedule. Parking is available in the 52 Oxford Street Garage. Please tell the attendant that you are attending the IIC Seminar. _______________________________________________ iic-seminars mailing list iic-seminars(a)calists.harvard.edu http://calists.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/iic-seminars

by Center for the Environment

Celebrate Earth Day this week! Come hear Congressman Edward Markey discuss US leadership on Global Warming TODAY in the Yenching Auditorium at 5:00 pm ________________________________________ Finding a secure, safe and reliable source of energy to power world economic growth will be one of the great challenges of this century. The Harvard University Center for the Environment invites the Harvard community to take up the challenge by participating in this ongoing series of discussions. **THE FUTURE OF ENERGY** Rep. EDWARD J. MARKEY Chairman, House Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming 7th Congressional District (D-Mass) "Reclaiming U.S. Leadership on Global Warming TODAY at 5:00 pm Harvard University Yenching Auditorium 2 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, MA First elected to Congress in 1976, Edward J. Markey has constructed an extraordinary legislative recordhelping to shape more than 20 years of telecommunications policy while championing consumer rights, health reform, the elimination of large monopolies, the conservation of environmental resources, the reduction of nuclear threats and the strengthening of our homeland security. He continues to be one of the most articulate and informed voices in Congress concerning both energy and environmental policy. Rep. Edward Markey was appointed by Speaker Pelosi as Chairman of the new Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming at the beginning of the 110th Congress. Rep. Markey has long been active on energy and environmental issues, reflecting his commitment to maintaining the quality of life and economic opportunity in New England. The president of the League of Conservation Voters has said of the chairman "there is no greater environmental champion in Congress than Ed Markey as we fight to head off the looming catastrophe of climate change." For more information about Rep. Markeys work on the Committee, please visit: http://globalwarming.house.gov/ The Future of Energy lecture series is sponsored by the Harvard University Center for the Environment with generous support from Bank of America.

[Aspuru-Guzik group list] [iic-seminars] IIC Seminar today - Making Heritage Virtual

by Helene Tingle

Initiative in Innovative Computing @ Harvard and the Humanities Center at Harvard as part of the Digital Humanities Seminar Series Wednesday, April 16, 2008; 4:00-5:30pm 60 Oxford Street, Room 330 Bernard Frischer, Director, Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities, University of Virginia and Dean Abernathy, Assistant Professor, Department of Architecture, University of Virginia Seminar Title: Making Heritage Virtual: Rome Reborn 1.0 and Other 3D Modeling Projects at the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities Abstract: This talk will discuss the digitization of 3D cultural property such as pottery, statues, buildings and even entire cities. Current projects at IATH include Rome Reborn, an international initiative to create 3D computer models of Rome's urban development, from first settlement to the city's depopulation in the sixth century A.D. Rome Reborn 1.0, the first result, shows Rome as it might have appeared in 320 A.D. The talk will conclude with discussion of some new directions and challenges: populating models with people and their activities, using them as tools for discovery, and collecting and disseminating real-time 3D models on the Internet. Upcoming IIC Seminars: Continue to stay up to date with our IIC Seminar Schedule. Parking is available in the 52 Oxford Street Garage. Please tell the attendant that you are attending the IIC Seminar. _______________________________________________ iic-seminars mailing list iic-seminars(a)calists.harvard.edu http://calists.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/iic-seminars
