  • “Towards a New Paradigm in East Asian Cultural Studies” June 24–26, 2009 Global Conference Room, (B109) Centennial Memorial Hall, Korea University
    -Co-hosted by the Institute of East Asian Studies at UC Berkeley and the Research Institute of Korean Studies at Korea University 2009 Berkeley-KU Forum on East Asian Cultural Studies The Institute of East Asian Studies at University of California, Berkeley and the Institute of Korean Culture at Korea University hold a biannual series of academic forums on the studies of East Asian cultures. The first planning workshop will take place in Seoul on the campus of Korea University from June 24th-26th in 2009. Approximately thirty scholars in East Asian Studies from Asia, Europe, and the United States will take up issues concerning “East Asian Studies” as they have been practiced in research and taught in institutions of higher learning in the second half of the 20th century and reflect upon their assumptions, achievements, influence, transmission, institutionalization, and limitations. With the advent of the 21st century culture has emerged to become an even more critical arena in the fashioning of value and society in intra-Asian as well as cross-Pacific contexts. New perspectives on culture will promise to shed new light on established views of history, culture, and societies. “Towards a New Paradigm in East Asian Cultural Studies” June 24–26, 2009 Global Conference Room, (B109) Centennial Memorial Hall, Korea University <Participants> Edward Baker, Hanyang University James Millward, Georgetown University Joel Bradshaw, University of Hawaii at Manoa Cuong Nguyen, George Mason University Robert Buswell, University of California, Los Alfonso

  • Chile - California Plan
    FOREIGN AFFARIS M INISTRY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CHILE - CALIFORNIA PLAN MARCH 2011 INTRODUCTION Chile and California have rich histories and much in common. Many of their cities share names, thanks to the Spanish conquest. They share anecdotes of fortune and poverty caused by the gold rush. They share warm climates, green valleys, sweet fruits and colorful flowers. They share the river basin of the Pacific and a “sea of possibilities”. Most importantly, they share dreams and challenges that make them natural partners for the new millennium. In the early 1960’s California and Chile signed a cooperation agreement as part of the Alliance for Progress program initiated by the United States. Thanks in part to financing from the Ford Foundation, this “aid for development” plan continued until the early 1970´s and would be known in the academic world as the “Convenio” . This bilateral history of cooperation, dreams and challenges had a second impulse in June 2008 when Chile and California launched the plan: “Chile - California, a strategic association for the 21st century”. The Chile - California Plan, from the Chilean Ministry of Foreign Affairs´ perspective, seeks to establish a new form of international relations, where reciprocal cooperation allows the Foreign Service to connect with the needs of the Chilean People on their way to become a complete developed country. In this challenge, public - private cooperation plays a fundamental role through academic, entrepreneurial, governmental and civil society initiatives. Development of human capital; promotion of research and development (and innovation); increases in trade and business opportunities; these initiatives represent the three strategic axes along which the Chile - California Plan unfolds.

  • Round 1: Launch
    Round 1: Launch 1. Team introduction: We are Team KAIST, consisting of 10 graduate students from the Unmanned Systems Research Group advised by Professor David Hyunchul Shim. Our team is dedicated to the development and validation of cutting edge technologies for highly autonomous vehicles. We have developed various key technologies and algorithms related to unmanned systems. We're not just focusing on software algorithm design, but we're developing from hardware system that make up a system. Our lab’s autonomous vehicle research began in 2009 when we signed up for Hyundai Motor Company’s Autonomous Vehicle Challenge. For this, we developed a complete set of in-house technologies such as low-level vehicle control, perception, localization, and decision making. We have accumulated a plenty of first-hand experiences of developing numerous autonomous vehicles with the support of domestic companies such as Hyundai Motor Company, Samsung, LG, NAVER and so on. In 2017, with in-house solutions, our autonomous vehicle platform “EureCar” was authorized by the Korean government to lawfully conduct autonomous driving experiment on the public road. We have published many papers in top journals and conferences such as IROS, ICRA, AIAA Scitech, and Journal of Field Robotics. Also, our team has participated in a number of domestic and international competitions such as Hyundai Motor Company’s Autonomous Vehicle Challenge. In particular, our team won the inaugural 2016 IROS autonomous drone racing and ranked second in 2018 IROS racing. We also competed in 2017 MBZIRC, ranking fourth in Mission 2 and 3, and fifth in Grand Challenge. We are now participating in DARPA Subterranean Challenge as a joint team member with NASA JPL, MIT and Caltech.
