Prof. Crittenden has been invited to speak and present around the world on sustainable urban systems and water treatment infrastructure.

06 Prof. Crittenden’s current research focus is on the emergent properties of urban infrastructure systems. His position as a director of the BBISS affords this research to include alternative energy technologies, sustainable materials, advanced modeling of urban systems, sustainable engineering pedagogy, and urban form and policy.

Developing Sustainable Urban Infrastructure to Solve Gigaton Problems Abstract Gigaton problems refer to those most severe problems challenging humanity, which can often be measured at the “gigaton (billion tons)” scale. For example, the annual world energy consumption is around 12 billion tons of oil equivalent (Gtoe), 80% of that from nonrenewable fossil fuels. The combustion of these fossil fuels emits approximately 29 billion tons (Gton) of CO2. In addition, the world uses more than 14 Gton of materials each year, only about 5% of which are renewable. These gigaton problems call for solutions which can meet the gigaton scale, or gigaton solutions. In response to the urgent need of solving the gigaton problems, the urban system plays a critical role as the primary sink of resources and source of wastes. In particular, urban centers are complex, adaptive systems that act like organisms: They process resources (water, energy, and materials) and information, create infrastructure and services, and produce wastes. Worldwide, urban centers dominate resource consumption as well as waste and pollution generation. By examining the complex interactions among social decision making, economic drivers, (re)development, sustainability metrics, and surface transportation, a simulation-based decision support tool and strategies are developed to allow stakeholders to design and choose infrastructure solutions that consume fewer resources and generate less waste. Case studies are presented for Atlanta, GA as an example to illustrate the ability of this tool to support the decision-making in constructing more sustainable cities.

ICT Technology Innovations Revolutionizing Human Society Abstract The global megatrend can be summarized into three different aspects, which are demographic shift, resource scarcity and climate change, and finally accelerating urbanization. The ICT technology is fast evolving in order to address issues that have arisen from the global megatrend. In this regard, we can envision the future society to be smarter, healthier and greener as ICT technology continues to be developed. Thus far, the remarkable evolution of ICT devices was enabled by the fast advancing silicon technology.

The performances of devices such as CPU and memory as well as network speeds have improved tremendously over the past 20 years. CPU performance improved 2400 times during this period, which is approximately equivalent to the performance of the human brain that is running at 4.5% capacity at around 1/83 real-time speed. CMOS technology innovation will enable exa-scale (1018) computing which is potentially up to human-scale and real-time processing.

On the other hand DRAM (main memory) and NAND Flash (data storage) improved their performance by a factor of 1000 and 32000, respectively. Silicon scaling technology, which is expected to reach sub-10nm, will enable a cost effective ultra high density memories to satisfy future data storage requirements.

Mobile network, which has been getting faster by a factor of 840 over the past 20 years, will open an era of the internet of things where everything could potentially have a digital identity and be connected to the internet and to each other, such that computers would be able to organize and manage them. The internet of things would add value to existing applications as well as create new opportunities that could revolutionize industries: for instance “smart” objects that use sensors to understand the environment around them and data collection for things that have never been digitized before, from one’s morning jogging to the hundreds of machines on a manufacturing facility. All these connected objects and devices will generate exorbitant amount of data (traditional IT data as well as medical/health, bio informatics, environment etc.), which need to be analyzed in order to produce meaningful data. Therefore, Big Data analytics will also be an important technology in the future.

Display technology in the future will be more realistic and immersive as well as more intelligent as it has started to become interactive. There are many technological challenges that need to be overcome in order to realize a smarter future.

In addition to having an impact on the ICT industry, IT technology is bringing innovation to areas such as bio/health and energy/environmental fields: extremely compact/efficient medical imaging devices and energy efficient low cost lighting among others are a few examples. Technologies of the future that will revolutionize the future and society will be discussed in more detail.

Furthermore, advances in nanotechnology when combined with the ICT technology will be providing a boost that will accelerate the technological evolution. Some examples of nano + ICT technology are:

08 graphene/CNT based devices, quantum dot displays etc. This fusion of fields will create vast opportunities for technological advancements and open up a new era for the society.

He served as President of the University of Maryland for 12 years and on the University of California, Berkeley faculty for 31 years where he held an endowed chair in Mechanical Systems, was Chair of Mechanical Engineering, and served as Vice Chancellor. The Grand Challenges for Engineering Abstract A diverse committee of eighteen experts from around the world, some of the most accomplished engineers and scientists of their generation, proposed fourteen challenges for engineering for the 21st Century that were published in 2008 by the U.S. National Academies Press. The panel, which was convened by the National Academy of Engineering, did not rank the importance of each challenge nor did it offer guidance to meeting them. The panel chose challenges that it concluded were both achievable and sustainable to help humanity and the planet to thrive. The panel’s recommendations were reviewed by subject-matter experts and input was received from prominent engineers, scientists and the general public prior to publication.

The fourteen challenges, in no particular order, are: Make solar energy economical; Provide energy from fusion; Develop carbon sequestration methods; Manage the nitrogen cycle; Provide access to clean water; Restore and improve urban infrastructure; Advance health informatics; Engineer better medicines; Reverse-engineer the brain; Prevent nuclear terror; Secure cyberspace; Enhance virtual reality; Advance personalized learning; Engineer the tools of scientific discovery.

This lecture will discuss the grand challenges and the process of their development as outlined above. But the greater focus will be on the broad impact on engineering of these grand challenges. While they were created without an initial distribution plan, their uptake within engineering has been remarkable.

09 The wisdom underpinning the challenges provided a welcomed focus that the engineering community was probably seeking unknowingly. The grand challenges became an immediate attractor of attention of engineers and engineering programs, a focus for modification of existing programs of study and scholarship, a vision of engineering engagement between national academies and universities on a global scale, and guidance for educational programs reaching down into primary and secondary schools. The grand challenge solutions extend beyond engineering and science to public interests, humanistic and social values, collaborations between cultures and the future of the planet. No other engineering vision has ever engaged the greater engineering community so broadly and deeply.

The essence of engineering is “creating solutions to problems of humanity and society.” The strong uptake of the grand challenges may be because they laid out some the long-term, largest scale and most impacting problems for all of humanity and society in this century.

Engineering the Future: Universities and Education Abstract For centuries engineering has provided immense benefits to society and is now poised to address some of the greatest challenges that the future holds.

Academies and professional institutions around the world have a shared vision for the experience, skills and attributes that engineers will require in an increasingly globalised world. These include, in addition to a deep understanding of engineering disciplines, an appreciation of entrepreneurship, innovation, and global business.

The presentation will highlight examples of where engineering solutions will be required by both the public and private sectors, and by grand challenges which are often of global significance.

Engineering operates in a ‘continuum’ ranging from basic scientific discovery through to market-ready engineered solutions. At its best an engineering education offers opportunities for industrial experience and takes place in an environment where discovery, science, and engineering are co-located. The future

10 challenge for universities is to go beyond this world to produce an environment where entrepreneurship, innovation, management and global business are embedded in the engineering education continuum.

Imperial College London, like many universities, is beginning to build an environment for the future engineer. Imperial West is the College’s major new campus in west London, co-locating world class researchers, businesses and higher education partners to create value from ideas, for the benefit of society on a local, national and global scale. The new site will provide at scale multidisciplinary research and education space for Imperial scientists and engineers to tackle some of the global challenges faced today, together with state-of-the-art space for translating research ideas into direct applications and spin- out companies.

Building Tomorrow’s Industries - Supporting and commercialising strategic emerging technologies: a UK perspective Abstract The UK, like many other countries, is investing strongly in strategic emerging technologies- but there is little consensus on the measures which will be needed to commercialise these technologies and build

11 a new industrial base in these areas. This presentation will identify the five issues which are vital for an industrial strategy, and assess how these issues can be addressed in relation to emerging industries. It will examine the portfolio of measures being taken in the UK to commercialise emerging technologies– including investment in 8 Great Technologies, Catapult technology transfer centres, and sector-specific industrial strategies. It will finally investigate the role a national academy of engineering can play in supporting the commercialisation of emerging technologies, with a focus on the Royal Academy of Engineering’s activities promoting sectoral policy strategies, building the UK’s skills base, and promoting innovation and entrepreneurship among researchers.

Science & Technology of Advanced Sodium Cooled Fast Spectrum Reactors in Context of Energy Sustainability in 21st Century Abstract Energy Technology Perspective 2012, by International Energy Association, anticipates twice the electricity production of ( 20,000 TWh to 40,000 TWh) from 2010-2050. Author explores Paradigm changes and

12 ways to overcome challenges as we make transition to low carbon energy societies.

Essentialities of energy mix and impact of decisions on energy sustainability and climate change are highlighted. The transitions to low carbon energy economies take different pathways in poor, emerging and developed countries. The reasons being varied priorities, levels of technology, existing infrastructure and energy mix, resources and commitments. Thus the policies are key to the transformation and transition management. Design, engineering & technology, materials, sensors, simulation and modeling, manufacturing etc are some of the key inter disciplinary domains to realize transition in an economical and realistic manner.

Young person’s must co-operate in a cohesive and inspired manner to undertake basic or directed applications. The selection of a direction may depend on interest, capability, mandates and pursuits of the group, funding, entrepreneurship and not the last; passion and commitment to the society. Innovation ecosystems need to be nurtured and grown with more and more involvement of young persons and gendre synergy.

The paper shall discuss , in brief challenges and opportunities, break through realizations in energy technologies in a spectrum covering coal, solar, wind and nuclear. A few illustrations of energy efficiency with thermo electric materials, products, nanofluids, etc are given as examples for the purpose of comprehension.

The talk puts emphasis on design, materials and manufacturing of advanced nuclear energy systems. Multifold increase in challenges of nuclear energy technologies are described as we progress from water to fast spectrum and fusion reactors. The author, from his experience, elucidates fascinating insights of serendipity, discoveries and solutions for meeting these challenges. Benchmark successes, in the global context, are narrated.

Science based technologies, so developed are being used as building blocks of Advanced Ultra Supercritical Thermal plants and Fusion Reactors.

Guardian Angel Technologies: Providing Right Information to the Right People Abstract In the increasingly digital world of the 21st century, every person on the planet should be able to get timely warning about unforeseen events in life such as Typhoons and Tornados. In this talk, we propose the creation of Guardian Angel Technologies for providing right information to the right people that can eliminate surprise and reduce human suffering and misery. Twenty years ago, my colleague, Professor Jaime Carbonell, proposed a grand challenge for Computer Science that society should aspire to get the right information to the right people at the right time in the right language in the right medium with the right level of detail. He called it the Digital Bill of Rights. The concept of getting the right information to every man, women and child on the planet is a big idea. It assumes that all seven billion of us on the planet should be able to get only the information of direct interest, filtering out all the rest of data glut. In this talk, we will review the state of the art, discuss the missing science, and propose a research agenda to create The Guardian Angel Technology, to accomplish the vision of Digital Bill of Rights on a global scale!

Carlo Rubbia Carlo Rubbia was born in Gorizia on 31st March 1934. He graduated in Physics at Scuola Normale of Pisa. In 1959 he obtained his PhD from Columbia University (USA). Since 1961 he has been working at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) in Geneva, becoming its Director General from 1989 to 1994. In 1984 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics for the discovery of the intermediate vector bosons together with Simon van der Meer. From 1972 to 1989 Carlo Rubbia has held the Higgins Professorship of Physics at Harvard University. He was the President of the Synchrotron Light Radiation Source in Trieste (1986 -1994 one of the first third-generation sources in the world, like Berkeley and Grenoble. During the 1990s Rubbia proposed the concept of an energy amplifier (ADS) – a novel and safe way of producing practically unlimited nuclear energy exploiting present-day accelerator technologies from natural thorium and depleted uranium. The energy resources potentially deriving from this technology, which is actively being studied worldwide, will be practically unlimited and non-proliferating. During his term as President of ENEA, the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and the Environment (1999-2005), he developed a novel method for concentrating solar power at high temperatures for energy production, known as the Archimedes Project, which is presently being developed by industry for commercial use. Since June 2010 he is the Scientific Director of the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS) in Potsdam. Member of numerous scientific academies, Carlo Rubbia holds 33 honorary degrees.

14 The Future of Energy Abstract The state of the art of the energy development in Europe and worldwide will be discussed, with specific consideration on the need of stability of the climate and the existence and limits of an Anthropogenic Era. The potentialities of curbing unwanted emissions with special consideration on innovative roles of fossils and the realistic future roles of renewable energies will be addressed.

Several innovative methods to curb emissions from fossils will be described and in particular 1) very high power and very long distance Superconducting electricity transmission; 2) vast and unconventional Natural Gas sources like Shales and Clathrates; 3) Natural Gas burning without any CO2 emission; and 4) the use of Methanol as a liquid fuel for transportation combining hydrogenic fossils or eventually solar hydrogen with already “spent” and recovered CO2 accumulation.

In 1979, Dr. Warren first observed the presence of small curved bacteria, resembling Campylobacter, on a biopsy of the gastric mucosa. During the next two years, Dr Warren found many more examples of the bacteria on gastric biopsies, always on gastric-type epithelium and closely linked to a specific variety of gastritis. He submitted this work as a thesis to the AdelaideUniversity in 2000 and was granted an M.D.

In 1981, Dr. Warren met Dr. Barry Marshall, registrar in the gastroenterology department. A fruitful partnership followed that demonstrated the clinical significance of the bacteria. They cultured the organisms and identified a new species, now called Helicobacter pylori. A clear association was found between H. pylori and peptic ulcers. Healed ulcers remained healed, without further medication after eradicating the bacteria.

Dr. Warren was the guest of honour at the Sixth International Workshop Campylobacter, Helicobacter and related organisms, in 1991 and he was guest speaker at the centenary meeting of the German Society of Pathology, May 1997. He received: the Distinguished Fellows Award of the Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia in 1995; the Inaugural Award of The First Western Pacific Helicobacter Congress, February 1996; the medal of the University of Hiroshima, September 1996; the University of Adelaide Alumni Association, Distinguished Alumni Award, October 1996; the degree of Doctor of Medicine, honoriscausa, by the University of Western Australia, September 1997; the medal of the University “La Sapienza” of Rome, 2005; the degree of Doctor of the University of Adelaide, honoriscausa, 2006; Honorary fellowship of the Royal Australian College of Physicians, 2006; the gold medal of the Australian Medical Association, 2006; and was elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy

15 of Science, 2006. Jointly with Dr. Marshall he received: the Warren Alpert Foundation prize at the Harvard University in 1994; the Australian Medical Association (WA) award, 1995; the Paul Ehrlich and Ludwig Darmstaedter Award, Paul Ehrlich Foundation, JohannWolfgang Goethe-Universität, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, in March 1997; the Faulding Florey medal, Adelaide (SA), September 1998; included in the Cavalcade of Australian Scientists of the 20th Century (Australian Institute of Political Science, 2000); and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, 2005.

Discovering Helicobacter Abstract Before the 1970’s, well fixed specimens of gastric mucosa were rare. Then the introduction of flexible endoscope enabled gastroenterologists to take numerous well-fixed small biopsies from the stomach. Gastric histology and pathology were clearly demonstrated. In 1972, Whitehead accurately described ‘active’ gastritis involving only the superficial gastric epithelium, with polymorph infiltration and epithelial cell distortion. In 1979 I was examining a gastric biopsy showing chronic inflammation and the active change. A thin blue line on the surface showed numerous small curved bacilli, clearly visible with a Warthin Starry silver stain. They appeared to grow on the surface of the foveolar epithelial cells. Over the next two years I collected numerous similar cases. The changes were often much milder or more focal than the original biopsy, but the main features were usually similar, with chronic gastritis and usually some of the active change, showing considerable variation, from near normal to severe. In 1981 Barry Marshal and I completed a clinico-pathological study of 100 outpatients referred for gastroscopy. There was little relation between the infection and the patients’ symptoms. Peptic ulcers, particularly duodenal ulcers, were very closely related to the infection. We cultured Helicobacter pylori. In 1986, with Marshall et al, I studied the effect of eradication of H pylori on the recurrence of duodenal ulcer. I graded the gastritis (0 – 36) using the features seen with active gastritis. The range was 15 – 35 before treatment. After eradication of H pylori, this changed to 5 – 20 within 2 weeks. This provides powerful evidence that H pylori causes the active change. Duodenal ulcer usually occurs in the duodenal cap. Gastric mucosa normally extends through the pylorus. The proximal border of all ulcers was either definite gastric mucosa, or scarred and consistent with a gastric origin. This suggests duodenal ulcer is either actually a distal pyloric ulcer or gastro-duodenal. It may well arise in the damaged, inflamed and infected mucosa in the position of maximum stress – the lip of the pyloric sphincter.

16 Longping Yuan Prof. Longping Yuan, “Father of Hybrid Rice”, invented hybrid rice technology in 1970s. Hybrid rice covers 57% of total rice area in China and yields more than 20% over improved inbred varieties. Grain yield increased by planting hybrid rice can feed 70 million more people a year, thus help China solve food shortage problem successfully. Recently, he has achieved developing super high yield hybrid rice which can yield about 14.9 tons per ha on large scale. Prof. Yuan has not only made this new technology to benefit China, but also has enthusiastically extended hybrid rice technology to other countries, and the yield advantage is 15-40% higher than local varieties. Hybrid rice is now grown on a land of 17 million hectares in China and 5.2 million hectares (2012) outside China. Since 1980, he has trained more than 3000 of scientists and researchers from over 60 countries and has served as a chief consultant to the FAO. Yuan’s excellent work on hybrid rice has benefited and will continue to benefit more people in the world.

Prof. Yuan is now the Director-General of China National Hybrid Rice R&D Center. He was elected member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering in 1995, and foreign associate of the National Academy of Sciences of U.S. in 2007. He was granted the State Supreme S&T Award of China in 2000.

Development of Hybrid Rice for Food Security in the World Abstract The current world population is 7 billion and will reach 8 billion in 2030. Meanwhile, the annual loss of land to other use is 10 t0 35 million ha, with half of this lost land coming from cropland. It is expected that 60% more rice should be produced in 2030 than in 1995. Currently, 1 ha for rice production provides food for 27 people. By 2050, 1 ha will have to support 43 people. Facing such severe situation of population growth pressure plus cropland reduction, it is obvious that the only way to solve food shortage problem is to greatly enhance the yield level of food crops per unit land area through the advance of science and technology.

Rice is a main food crop. It feeds more than half of the world's population. Therefore, rice plays a very important role in food security and poverty alleviation. Theoretically, rice still has a great yield potential to be tapped and there are many ways to raise rice yield. This could be achieved by: building irrigation works; application of more fertilizer; improving soil conditions; cultural techniques and breeding of high yielding varieties. Among them, it seems at present that the most effective and economic alternative is to develop hybrid varieties based on the successful experience in China.

It has been proven practically for many years that hybrid rice has achieved more than 20% yield advantage over improved inbred varieties. In recent years, hybrid rice coverd 58% or 17 million ha of the total rice area in China. The nationwide average yield of hybrid rice is 7.5 t/ha, about l.4 t/ha higher than that of inbred varieties (6.1 t/ha). The yearly increase of grains in China due to the growing of hybrid rice can feed 70 million people annually. Therefore, hybrid rice has been playing a critical role in solving the food problem in China, thus making China the largest food self-sufficient country.

China makes increasing progress in the development of hybrid rice technology. In order to meet food

17 requirement for all Chinese people in the 21st century, a super rice breeding programme was set up by the China Ministry of Agriculture in 1996. It is divided into three phases, and the yield targets are:

Phase I (1996-2000) 10.5t/ha

Phase II (2001-2005) 12t/ha

Phase III (2006-2015) 13.5t/ha

(Average yield at two locations with 6.7 ha each in two consecutive year)

Through morphological improvements plus the use of inter-subspecific (Indica/Japonica) heterosis, very good results were achieved in developing super hybrid rice varieties.

Several pioneer super hybrids were developed by 2000 which met the Phase I yield standard and released for commercial production since 2001. In recent years the area under these pioneer super hybrids is around 1 million ha and the average yield is about 8.3 t/ha.

The breeding of Phase II super hybrids was successfully attained in 2004. The planting area of these hybrids was near 1 million ha in 2013 and the average yield was 9 t/ha.

Excitingly, a super hybrid variety-Y Liangyou No. 2, yielded 13.9 t/ha on average in a 7.2 ha demonstration location last year. It meant that the goal of phase III super rice breeding programme was attained.

Based on the above progress, the phase IV super hybrid rice breeding program has been started. The yield target is 15t/ha. Last year a new super hybrid rice variety (Y58S/900) yielded 14.82t/ha at a 6.8ha demonstration location. So it is expected the phase IV yield tardet can be achieved by 2015.

The above facts indicate that the super hybrid rice has a very bright future. If super hybrid rice covers an annual area of 10 million ha in China and with an yield increase of 2 t/ha, it is expected that the annual increase grains will reach 20 million tons. This means another 70 million more people can be fed every year.

Hybrid rice has been proven to be a very effective approach to greatly increase yield not only in China, but also outside China. Vietnam and India have commercialized hybrid rice for years. In recent years, about 600 000 ha were covered with rice hybrids in Vietnam. On average, the yield of rice hybrids is 6.3 t/ha while that of the inbred varieties is 4.5 t/ha. As a consequence of planting hybrid rice on large-scale commercial production for years, Vietnam emerged as the second largest rice exporting country. Besides, many other countries, such as the Philippines, Bangladesh, Indonesia and USA, have also achieved great success in extending hybrid rice technology. For example, in the Philippines, under technical assistance from the China National Hybrid Rice R&D Centre, hybrid rice was commercialized since 2002. In 2010, the area under rice hybrids was increased to nearly 200 000 ha and the yield advantage was two tons per ha. Based on this achievement, the Philippines government has lauched an ambitious plan. The target is to expand the area of hybrid rice to one million ha. Even in USA, the super power country, hybrid rice also has greater yield advantage (>20%) over their local varieties. The area under hybrid rice was 440 000 ha in 2012.

18 These facts clearly show that hybrid rice technology developed by China is also effective to greatly increase rice yields worldwide. If 50% of the conventional rice is replaced by hybrid rice, and estimating on a 2 t/ha yield advantage of hybrid rice, it is estimated that the total rice production in the world will be increased by another 150 million tons of rice which can feed 400 million people each year. Therefore, I firmly believe that hybrid rice, relying on scientific and technological advances, and the efforts from all other aspects, including governments, private sectors, NGOs and particularly from FAO and IRRI, will have a very good prospect for commercial production, and moreover continue to play a key role in ensuring the future worldwide food security in the 21th century.

Built during the 1406-1420 period, it is the largest royal palatial complex in existence in China; ranging from the majestic to the exquisite, they bear witness to a nation in transition. Other tourist attractions on the premises include a huge stone ramp carved with intricate dragon and cloud patterns, Imperial Garden and Nine-Dragon Screen Wall. An immense trove of cultural artifacts and treasures of various dynasties, some of them on display in the Treasure Hall and the ceramics, painting, bronze ware galleries, are reason enough for UNESCO to adopt the Former Imperial Palace as a world cultural heritage site.

China's largest temple and altar are found in Temple of Heaven. Built in 1420, it was where Ming and Qing monarchs worshiped the god of heaven and prayed for good harvests. Major structures are hall of Prayer for good Harvest, Imperial Vault of Heaven, Circular Altar, and Abstinence Palace. The temple is divided by two enclosed walls into inner altar and outer altar. To better symbolize heaven and earth, the northern part of the temple is circular while the southern part is square, which reflect the ancient Chinese belief that Heaven is round and Earth is square. The Temple of Heaven is a cultural museum of offering sacrifices to Heaven, which merges architecture, aesthetics, acoustics, astronomy, calendar, music and dancing into an integral whole. UNESCO endorsed Temple of Heaven as a world cultural heritage site in December 1998.
