NJ Computer Society:
USL For Fun and Profit
On Tuesday, May 19th, 2009, the
IEEE North Jersey Section Computer Society Chapter will host a presentation
entitled “USL For Fun and Profit”
by Frank Middleton.
Universal Systems Language (USL) was covered
extensively by its creators in the Dec 2008 issue of IEEE Computer Magazine, in
the article entitled "Universal Systems Language: Lessons Learned from
Apollo". Our guest speaker, Frank Middleton of Apogee Communications
Technologies has extensive experience using USL.
About the Talk
From its
beginnings at MIT Draper Lab., USL, and its companion
Integrated Development Environment, 001,
has evolved to be a formidable combination of the best of Object and
Functional programming, and continues to be the way to build error free systems
(of systems) in a robust and scalable way.
This
presentation will go over some USL basics, and demonstrate
the technology in use to build the kind of application for which one might use
Ruby on Rails, and show how much simpler it is, not only conceptually, but to
build, extend, and maintain systems defined and built with USL/001. The speaker will also
showcase his Universal Schema Tool that leverages the power of USL and 001 to make an easy to
use XML editor that round trips both XML and RDBMS Schemas from USL Type Maps.
USL is based on a simple
mathematical framework that is remarkably easy to understand and use, yet
represents, for many people, a whole new paradigm for the entire development
cycle. Anyone involved in systems development, from embedded microprocessors to
large-scale distributed applications, will find this talk interesting and
valuable.
About the Speaker
Frank Middleton is the founder and president of Apogee Communications
Technologies, a consultancy that has specialized in the use of USL
to provide solutions in the Financial Services Industry and others.
Mr. Middleton's client roster includes companies in wide ranging
industries and markets, among them security and surveillance systems, financial
services, telecom and communications. He has led technology projects that have
both advanced a company's core business and enabled companies to embrace and
utilize technology for the purpose of achieving significant cost savings and
revenue growth.
Having obtained a BSc in Electronics from the University of Kent at
Canterbury, England, Mr. Middleton went on to acquire a Masters in Computer
Science from the Courant Institute of Mathematics at New York University, NYC,
Mr. Middleton keeps abreast of a diverse array of technologies through his
professional memberships in the IEEE, ACM and AMA.
USL is a favorite topic of
Mr. Middleton; you may contact him if you would like him to discuss it with
your colleagues, by email (f.middleton@apogeect.com) or phone (973 796
2754). You can also get more information at http://www.apogeect.com and HTI's

Recent
Developments in US Patent Law
On Thursday, May 28, 2009 the
IEEE Consultants' Network of Northern NJ (www.TechnologyOnTap.org) will be
holding a dinner meeting at a new location, beginning at a new time.
About
the Topic
Would you like to write your own patent application or just learn more
about US patent law?
The presentation will deal with a variety of changes in US patent law
that have arisen over the past year or so and the potential consequences
thereof. The presentation will begin,
however, with a brief introduction to patent law.
Recent developments in patent law revolve around case law that
addresses issues including: USPTO changes to patent practice rules; inequitable
conduct during patent prosecution; the scope of patentable subject matter;
obviousness and standards of patentability; and the availability of permanent
injunctions against infringers.
Time will be reserved at the end for questions from the audience, to
discuss topics of particular interest.

Hitting Bottom
is the Best Thing that Can Happen to You – But I Wouldn’t Wish It on Anyone
On Thursday, June 25, 2009, the IEEE Consultants' Network of Northern
NJ (www.TechnologyOnTap.org)
will be holding its monthly meeting, beginning at a new time: 6pm. We will feature a talk by Randi Altschul
about her exciting approach to new product development.
About
the Topic
Randi Altschul offers unorthodox views on new product development –
something of great interest to independent engineering practitioners. She spoke to the Consultants’ Network in the
past; this presentation is a follow-up to her well-received talk on
entrepreneurship in 2000. In her own
words:
“Over the past few years my life has been a roller coaster ride from
which I have emerged better than I ever was before. Smarter, Stronger, More Energized than I’d
ever thought possible. During this time
I lost everything I owned and the two people I loved more than anything, but
all in all I wouldn’t change a thing because I’m in a really good place, I own
several new companies and am developing groundbreaking product for industries I
never thought I’d enter. Conceive it,
Believe it, Achieve it! And never let them get you down.
“Our discussion will take you through the creation and development of
incredible products to the pitfalls along the way and the realization that they
can take everything away but as long as you have your brain and your reputation
you can make miracles happen.”
About
the Speaker

NJ Control Systems Society:
Convex Programming in Controller Design for
Flexible Structures
On May 6, 2009, the IEEE NJ Control Systems Chapter together with the
New Jersey Institute of Technology will host a seminar on “Convex Programming
in Controller Design for Flexible Structures." The speaker will be Dr. Tarunraj Singh.
About
the Topic
Systems such as the James Webb Space Telescope, the replacement of the
Hubble telescope, the Millipede (next generation storage device), cranes, hard
disk drives, high-speed tape drives etc., are characterized by vibrations
excited by the motion of the structure.
These vibrations can negatively influence the performance of the
system. This talk will focus on using
convex programming technique for the design of controllers which minimize
residual vibrations at the end of a maneuver in the presence of uncertainties
in the dynamic model of the system.
Linear programming and Linear Matrix Inequalities are used to study
rest-to-rest maneuvers of lightly damped flexible structures and systems
subject to friction.
About
the Speaker
Tarunraj Singh is a Professor with the Department of Mechanical
and Aerospace Engineering at the State University of New York at Buffalo. He received his PhD in Mechanical Engineering

NJ EDS/C&S:
Polymer Based
Sensor Systems for Healthcare & Homeland Security
On June 8, 2009, the IEEE NJ Section Electron
Devices, Circuits and Systems Chapters together with the New Jersey Institute
of Technology will host a talk on "Polymer Based Sensor Systems for
Healthcare & Homeland Security."
The speaker will be EDS Distinguished Lecturer, Dr. V. Ramgopal Rao,
Professor, EE Department, IIT Bombay.
About the Talk
Micro fabricated sensors based on the
detection of nanomechanical motion are known to be promising for biochemical
sensing. The use of conventional silicon
based materials to fabricate microcantilevers results in a lower sensitivity
and higher cost for the sensor depending on the Young’s modulus of the
structural material, the geometrical dimensions, as well as the process
complexity. UV patternable polymer
materials such as SU-8 have a very low Young’s modulus compared to the silicon
(Si) based materials, are cheaper, and show excellent promise as structural
layers. In this talk, we discuss the
progress made at IIT Bombay towards the development of a SU-8
microcantilever platform for sensing applications. The three approaches, namely the optical, piezo-resistive
(with polysilicon films as well as with conductive nanoparticles dispersed in
an epoxy matrix) and piezo-electric (based on a novel multi-ferroic material
synthesized at IIT Bombay)
based read out schemes are implemented using a polymeric cantilever platform
and show excellent promise. We
demonstrate practical applications involving these novel cantilever platforms
for cardiac diagnostics & explosive detection.
About the Speaker
Dr. V. Ramgopal Rao is a Professor in the
Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Bombay. Dr. Rao has over 200 publications in the area
of Electron Devices & Nanoelectronics in refereed international journals

Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI),
causing shifts in device parameters such as drain current and threshold
voltage, is a serious reliability concern for p-MOSFETs. Though identified more than 40 years ago,
NBTI has become the most severe front end reliability issue only recently, as
gate oxide thickness is scaled below 2nm, and Nitrogen is incorporated into the
gate oxide to prevent Boron penetration and leakage. Besides Si oxynitride/poly-Si devices, NBTI
is also a serious concern for high-k/metal gate devices as well.
Like other reliability issues (like HCI),
device lifetime under NBTI is determined by accelerated stress tests done at
short time, and extrapolating the degradation under operating condition to end
of life. It is very important to choose
proper stress condition such that defects responsible for NBTI are only
accelerated and no new defects are formed.
As NBTI degradation recovers (unlike HCI) after stress is turned off for
measurement, conventional stress-measure-stress methods give erroneous results,
and fast methods must be implemented. It
is important to understand and model NBTI physical mechanism, so that proper
physics-based models can be developed for reliable determination of device
lifetime. It is also important to
understand the process / material dependence of NBTI to develop robust, NBTI
safe gate insulators that meet other (leakage, mobility) requirements. The talk will address some of these issues.

NJ EDS/C&S:
Nanowire
Biosensors
On September 17, 2009, the IEEE NJ Section
Electron Devices, Circuits and Systems Chapters together with the New Jersey Institute
of Technology will host a talk on “Nanowire Biosensors." The speaker will be Distinguished Lecturer,
Professor Mark A. Reed.
About the Talk
Nanoscale electronic devices have the
potential to achieve exquisite sensitivity as sensors for the direct detection
of molecular interactions, thereby decreasing diagnostics costs and enabling
previously impossible sensing in disparate field environments. Semiconducting nanowire-field effect
transistors (NW-FETs) hold particular promise, though contemporary NW
approaches are inadequate for realistic applications. We present here a novel approach using
complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology that has not only achieved unprecedented
sensitivity, but simultaneously facilitates system-scale integration of
nanosensors for the first time. This
approach enables a wide range of label-free biochemical and macromolecule
sensing applications, including cell type discrimination through the monitoring
of live, stimulus-induced cellular response, and specific protein and
complementary DNA
recognition assays. An important
achievement is the introduction of real-time, unlabeled detection capability,
allowing for fundamental studies of cellular activation, and specific
macromolecule interactions at femtomolar
concentrations. Important aspects of
microfluidic integration and Debye screening will be discussed, along with the
demonstration of live cell peptide-specific immunoresponse.
About the Speaker
Professor Mark A. Reed received his PhD in Physics
from Syracuse University in 1983, after which he joined Texas Instruments. In 1990 Mark joined Yale University where he
holds the Harold Hodgkinson Chair of Engineering and Applied Science, and is

Time for Action on New Jersey Mathematics
Education
New Jersey is reconsidering its licensure
requirements for public school teachers, so now is the time for concerned
citizens to register their recommendations.
Addresses follow. Currently there
are no requirements for prospective elementary school teachers to take any appropriate
mathematics courses, and their lack of knowledge of what their pupils should
learn is appalling.
IEEE members may want to recommend four courses in
accordance with the recommendations of the Combined Board of Mathematical
Sciences: one each in arithmetic and
number sense; geometry; statistics, probability, and data analysis; and
algebraic reasoning. Or you may want to
support the recommendations of the New Jersey Association of Mathematics
Teacher Education: the first three listed above and a course in mathematical
pedagogy.
In either case, write to Dr. Robert Higgins,
Director, Office of Licensure and Certification and to the State Board of
Education. Both addresses are at the New
Jersey Department of Education, Box 500, Trenton, NJ 08625. The email addresses are Robert.higgins@doe.state.nj.us and StateBD@doe.state.nj.us.
Currently, New Jersey elementary school teachers
are foggy on fractions, division, and subtraction, and not strong on
addition. One nice prospective teacher
in her last college math class insisted that because in 1999 small trucks owned
by Americans averaged 20 mpg and sedans averaged 28 mpg that altogether they
must average 48 mpg.
"Altogether" means "add." Last year a fifth grade teacher in a nice
suburban town was observed drilling her pupils in adding fractions by adding
across the numerators and then adding across the denominators. Unprepared teachers resort to teaching key
words and incorrect algorithms.
Elementary school teachers are eager to learn, and
can learn quickly if taught appropriately.
However, they emerged from our highly flawed system, and they need help
if New Jersey's children are to learn mathematics. Please help by writing to the above
addresses.

Unemployment
Rate for U.S. Engineering and Computer Occupations Jumps Significantly in First
Quarter
Washington
(6 April 2009) - The unemployment rate for U.S. engineering and computer
occupations is increasing more rapidly than for professional occupations in
general, according to data released Friday by the Department of Labor's Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS).
"Engineers
create jobs, so these data are very discouraging," IEEE-USA President
Gordon Day said. "Engineers
strengthen companies and start new ones, leveraging the economy upwards. The fundamental need is for capital to
support engineering activity. That’s why
the government's investments in technology and its efforts to restore the
banking system are so important."
The
unemployment rate for all engineers jumped from 2.9 percent in the fourth
quarter of 2008 to 3.9 percent in the first quarter of 2009. For all computer occupations, the rate went
from 3.3 percent to 5.4 percent. In
comparison, the quarter-to-quarter rate for all professional workers increased
from 3 percent to 3.7 percent.
For
electrical and electronics engineers the jobless rate rose from 2.4 percent to
4.1 percent, quarter to quarter. For
mechanical engineers, it went from 2.1 percent to 4.2 percent. Aerospace engineers suffered less, with an increase
from 1.1 percent to 1.4 percent.
In
computer occupations, the rate for software engineers went from 1.9 percent to
4.2 percent. For computer scientists and
systems analysts the change was from 3 percent to 5.7 percent.
High-tech
managers also experienced unemployment increases. For computer and information systems managers,
the rate rose from 2.7 percent to 4 percent.
For engineering managers it went from 1 percent to 1.8 percent.
"We
at IEEE-USA are concerned about how rapidly engineering and computer-related
unemployment is trending upwards," Day said. "In 2007 the overall engineering
unemployment rate was only 1.2 percent."

members can find career enhancement resources at http://www.ieeeusa.org/careers/. Help for unemployed and at-risk
members is available at http://www.ieeeusa.org/careers/help/.
