WEBCAST THURS: @NSF Millimeter-Wave RCN – 4th Workshop, July 2018 #NSFfunded #5G #mmwrcn @NYUTandon

livestreamOn Thursday August 2018 the Internet Society Livestream Channel will rebroadcast the 4th Workshop of the Research Coordination Network (RCN) on Millimeter-Wave Wireless, held at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering, Brooklyn on July 12-13 2018. The RCN’s aim is to spur research and development of mmW wireless, driven by innovations in three key areas: 1) CSP: communication and signal processing techniques; 2) HW: mmW hardware, circuits, antennas, and digital hardware; and 3) NET: wireless networking; along with mmW prototypes and testbeds. The RCN is NSF funded. Further workshops are planned for Fall 2018 (National Institute of Standards and Technology), and Spring 2019 (Univ of California). – Berkeley)

WEBCAST TODAY: @NSF Wireless Innovation for a Networked Society (WINS) Challenges Launch NY #nsfwins @mozilla

LivestreamToday, Saturday April 22 2017 Mozilla presents the third and final launch event for the National Science Foundation-sponsored Wireless Innovation for a Networked Society (WINS) Challenges – two U.S.-based competitions with $1 million in prize money each. The goal: support creative, open-source ideas for making the Internet more accessible, decentralized and resilient. The challenges seek prototypes and designs that either a) provide connectivity during disasters or b) connect the unconnected. This launch event will allow participants to learn more about the NSF WINS Challenges, meet others who are interested in applying, discuss other wireless projects happening in your area, and brainstorm solutions with potential teammates. It will run from 10am to 3:30pm at eBayNYC. The opening presentation will be webcast live on the Internet Society’s Livestream Channel.

MEETUP/WEBCAST 4/22 – @NSF @Mozilla Wireless Innovation for a Networked Society Challenges NYC Launch #nsfwins

LivestreamOn Saturday April 22 2017 the National Science Foundation and Mozilla will host a launch event for the Wireless Innovation for a Networked Society Challenges at eBay’s office in NYC. These competitions, which have $2m in prizes, challenge the public to identify and demonstrate solutions to further wireless networks in two scenarios. (1) The Off-the-Grid Internet Challenge aims to find wireless solutions for communication that can be rapidly deployed in post-disaster situations where Internet access is unavailable or compromised. (2) The Smart Community Networks Challenge aims to find wireless solutions for communication that can be built on top of existing infrastructure to enhance Internet connectivity in communities that need greater access. Each challenge will consist of two stages: a Design Concept Stage and a Working Prototype Stage. If you wish to attend in person RSVP here. The event will be webcast live on the Internet Society Livestream Channel.
