报告摘要：

We are entering into an era of innovation and rapid change, driven by disruptive technology. It is a new kind of technological revolution that will fundamentally change the way we live and work. In its scale, scope, and impact, this transformation, called the Fourth Industrial Revolution, will be unlike anything humankind has experienced before.

In this time of innovation, driven by the unique power of convergence, we should ponder on few important questions, including how should the scientists and engineers of the future be educated and what is the role of scientists. Regarding education, it is clear that the paradigms of the past—education by specialty, disciplinary boundaries, and so forth—will be (if not already are) inadequate for training those who will lead and drive the Fourth Industrial Revolution. How do we train the next generation of scientists and engineers with the capabilities essential in this new era of convergence thinking, individuals who can freely work across multiple fields of study, interacting with and integrating diverse people and subjects? Regarding the role of scientists in society, it is important to note that we have received enormous support from government and society, and we should contribute to the economic advancement in a more impactful way. This is especially important in the Fourth Industrial Revolution as convergence is not just defined by intellectual curiosity or as an academic exercise but by human needs and applications.

While the Fourth Industrial Revolution has had an impact even on the present, its impact will grow rapidly in the future. An incredible amount of novel technology will appear in various fields and that will significantly affect our lives. There are high expectations on scientists to lead the wave of innovation. Let's aim high and think how we will contribute to the society and humanity in this era of innovation.

报告摘要：

In Hong Kong, we agreed that a Smart City should emphasis on leveraging Information and Communications Technology to enhance the efficiency of a city’s systems, operations and services. But we also want to add user-centric and the degree of openness to the available services and data such that a Smart & Open City shall leverage human and social capital to facilitate the sustainable growth of the community and improve the quality of living. Hence, for the first part of the talk, we will describe the Smart City Projects and The Open City initiatives in Hong Kong. And in the latter part, we will talk about our recent research and development, under the Smart City framework, in merging two of the more important technologies – localization & tracking and big data analysis and put into practical use.

In the exhibition and convention industry, the more information and data you have about the visitor, the more likely you will succeed in your marketing strategy. And thus, the Indoor Location Analytics System (ILAS) is developed for better matchmaking between buyers and exhibitors in the exhibition industry. ILAS consists of 3 major components: 1) an indoor positioning system which use both Wifi-based and Mobile network based approaches to identify visitors’ location information, 2) a backend analytics system which combines the content-based recommendation and collaborative filtering approach for robust identification of visitors’ preference for enabling value-added services provisioning, and 3) a mobile apps allowing the system to communicate with the visitors to provide a just-in-time and personalized information according to the visitors’ current location. The proposed system adds values and opportunities to different stakeholders in the Exhibition and Convention Industry. On one hand, reducing the matchmaking cost between the buyers and exhibitors can enhance their levels of satisfaction. Also, based on the collected data, the backend analytics system can analyze the visitor flow patterns to provide decision support to the exhibition organizers for better venue design and booth pricing strategy. Furthermore, the introducing of “Femtocell” technology in the proposed solution allows seamless transition of mobile basestations from outdoor to indoor. It not only improve the positioning accuracy, but also opens up an opportunity to link up with mobile service providers for new business models like mobile advertisement and marketing.

报告摘要：

Vehdoop is an analytical processing framework proposed for vehicular sensor networks to efficiently process sensor data in parallel across a large number of vehicles in a decentralized manner for supporting a wide range of intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications. The basic idea of Vehdoop and a motivational example will be introduced in the first part of the talk.  In the second part, ViDA, which is a tool to improve teaching and learning computer programming by facilitating students to receive instant debugging advice, will be presented. It is part of our ongoing effort to enhance an e-learning system called PASS and this work is a follow-up of our another research work that demonstrated PASS’s capacity in enhancing student learning motivation and self-efficacy, which received >250 citations according to Google Scholar dated 31 May 2019.
