2. Chapter Name: Broadcast Technology Society Taipei Chapter (BT02) Four meeting reports have been submitted to IEEE. They are listed below. i. Workshop on GaN-HFET Zero Voltage Soft-Switching Multi-Resonant Converter for Inductive Power Transfer Applications Date: 01 Mar 2019 Location: 145 Xingda Rd., South Dist., Taichung City 402, Taiwan (R.O.C.) Attendance: Member: 44, Guests 60 Inductive power transfer (IPT) systems have been widely applied for a wide variety of industrial, automotive and medical electronics systems. The power converter topology has a key role for achieving high efficiency of IPT systems as well as well as high efficient power device under the condition of high frequency switching such as wide-band-gap power devices. The power regulation of the receiving side is an essential technology for the IPT battery charging system, and a two-stage power converter, i.e. diode rectifier and buck converter is a conventional solution for the technical demand. This multi-stage power conversion is not attractive in terms of efficiency and simplicity of control system. As a solution for this technical issue, the active rectifier that directly converts a high-frequency (HF) ac to dc is a practically effective solution. In this workshop, the speaker, Dr. Mishima will present a new IPT power converter that combines a high-frequency resonant inverter and a HF bridgeless rectifier. The newly developed converter features Gallium Nitride (GaN) power device in the HF inverter and bridgeless rectifier with synchronous rectification. The low-on resistance and first switching transition brings a higher efficiency into the power converter of IPT system. The principles of switching operation and pulse modulation will be briefed, then experimental results 8
of a 700W-85kHz prototype with 650V high voltage Gallium Nitride (GaN) Heterojunction-Filed-Effect Transistor (GaN-HFET) will be presented in this seminar.
ii. Workshop on Latest Developments of Resonant Power Converters with Wide-Band- Gap Power Devices Date: 02 Mar 2019 Location: No.2, Shi-Da Road, Changhua City, Taiwan (R.O.C.) Attendance: Member: 45, Guests 61 Resonant power converters are essential for high-frequency power conversions: high frequency inverters, high frequency-link dc-dc converters and high frequency- link ac-ac converters for wireless power transfers, induction heaters and ac/dc microgrid, automotive applications and so forth. In order to pull out the merits of high frequency switching operation, wide-band-gap (WBG) power devices such GaN and SiC MOSFETs are applied in the resonant power converters with innovative soft switching topologies as well as conventional ones. In this workshop, the technical trends on the researches and developments of resonant power converters with WBG devices will be introduced by partly referring to the research records in the past decades such as; LLC converters, isolated dc/dc converters, class-E inverters. Moreover, the innovative single-stage ac-ac converters with SiC- MOSFET for induction heater which was developed by Advanced Power Electronics Research Laboratory of Kobe University will be presented. iii. Workshop on Electrification Revolution with Power and Energy Electronics Technologies Date: 22 Nov 2019 Location: 145 Xingda Rd., South Dist., Taichung City 402, Taiwan (R.O.C.) Attendance: Member: 43, Guests 60 At present, almost all electrical products require DC power. All residential and factory power distribution systems can also be converted to DC power distribution. These can be achieved by high-frequency power conversion technology. Therefore, it can be said that the current energy and power electronics technology using wide band gap semiconductors is bringing a new generation of electrification revolution. iv. Workshop on Graphs for Signal Processing, Communications, and Digital Video Broadcast Date: 18 Sep 2019 Location: 1, Sec. 3, Zhongxiao E. Rd., Taipei 10608 Taiwan (R.O.C.) Attendance: Member: 44, Guests 64 Graphs have been explored for algorithm design and network analysis in the past decades. They have tremendous applications in optical networks, data analytics, routing and navigation, etc. However, due to the restriction on their discrete nature, graphs have been seldom studied for engineering, especially electrical engineering, for various practical applications. Since a few years ago, Graph Filters have been introduced by some applied mathematicians and they are used for image processing at the premature stage. The joint research effort made by Hsiao-Chun Wu in recent years has exploited graphs for applications in signal processing, wireless communications, biomedical engineering, artificial intelligence, and intelligent transportation technology. In this workshop, the basic framework on how to apply graphs for well-known signal processing, data analytics, digital video broadcast, and wireless communications will be introduced. Promising results from graph- related applications will also be presented in the relevant research areas. Finally, on-going challenges for the graph-related approaches will be identified and hints for possible solutions will be discussed.
3. Chapter Name: Computer Society Taipei Chapter (C16) i. The 30th VLSI Design/CAD Symposium, Aug. 6-9, 2019 Venue: Kaohsiung, Taiwan Attendance: Members, Guests Website: https://www.cs.ccu.edu.tw/~wildwolf/www.vlsicad2019.org/contents/information/ho me.html
The VLSI Design/CAD Symposium, which plays an important role in stimulating local research, is aimed at providing an open forum for professors, industrial
9
engineers and, most important of all, graduate students to exchange cutting-edge R&D knowledge and ideas in the fields of SoC/ASIC design and EDA research.
ii. IEEE SOCA 2019, November 18-21, 2019 Venue: Kaohsiung, Taiwan Attendance: Members, Guests Website: https://www.cs.ccu.edu.tw/~conference/soca2019/ Service-oriented computing (SOC) is considered today a key enabler for the development of robust and high-quality intelligent Internet-scale distributed applications. Extensive research and development in the past few years has pushed SOC technology into state-of-the-art applications in emerging areas such as Cloud computing, Internet-of-Things (IoT), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs), Mobile-Edge Computing, Social computing as well as mobile and enterprise systems. However, many of the critical components on building reliable, robust, and user-centric, cloud-based service-oriented architecture applications and systems are still open for research. Hence, it is time to face new service-oriented architecture (SOA) research opportunities by addressing new research challenges on emerging applications domains like smart cities, smart logistics, smart factories and e-Health, just to mention a few. Many of the service components are deployed on resource-limited embedded systems and are performance sensitive; others are deployed on cloud servers providing highly parallel services and on edge servers in the middle of resource- limited systems and high-end servers. Edge servers and clouds are connected through various types of networks, including emerging network function virtualization services. These components are part of complex applications and systems that span multiple execution environments. Their capabilities are increasingly being managed and (re)configured via emerging software-defined and elasticity mechanisms. In addition, they have to interact with humans in order to obtain useful human-sensing data and solve complex problems. Thus, on the one hand, SOC may provide effective solutions for managing the ever-increasing complexity while meeting the challenging requirements of services on largely distributed, heterogeneous and dynamic resource environments. On the other hand, the exploitation of emerging trends in such environments to build SOC applications and systems for large-scale service-based systems is an open research challenge. The 2018 IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (Pending Approval of IEEE Sponshorship) provides an international forum for researchers from multiple disciplines to exchange and share their experiences, ideas, and latest research results on all aspects of service-oriented computing. The conference includes three days of parallel-track program, special- topic workshops, keynotes and tutorials, and panel discussion.

5. Chapter Name: Consumer Electronics Society Taipei Chapter (CE08) i. 2019 IEEE ICCE-TW Date: May 20 – May 22, 2019 Topic: Interdisciplinary Trends in Human-care Computing Electronics Venue: Evergreen Resort Hotel, Jiaosi Township, Yilan County, Taiwan Summary: The IEEE International Conference on Consumer Electronics – Taiwan, 2019 took place from May 20th to 22th at Evergreen Resort Hotel in Yilan County, Taiwan. As an excellent platform for worldwide scholars and professionals, ICCE TW aims to provide discussions on research in consumer electronics and the relevant applications. Inherited from the success of ICCE-TW series between 2014 and 2018, the 6th ICCE-Taiwan continues its success and attracts more than 320 attendees from 15 countries with more than 400 paper submissions. The highlight of the meeting is more than 172 papers among 356 accepted papers are submitted from overseas rather than Taiwan. The attendees around the world gathered in Yilan to exchange professional knowledge and experiences. Therefore, this conference is assumed to be a precious opportunity for international networking. The technical program consists of 2 keynote speeches, 1 panel discussion, 58 oral sessions and 3 poster sessions. This year, in order to address the multi-disciplinary at present, the organizers have set up the conference main theme as “Interdisciplinary Trends in Human-care Computing Electronics”. The conference organizers would like to take this chance to appreciate the technical program committee for their marvelous work, which has made ICCE- TW 2019 a huge success. In addition to the technical program, a half day tour was held on May 21st afternoon, which involves visiting Lanyang Museum and Toucheng Old Street. Lanyang Museum is located on the northwest side of the Wushigang Harbor, which was designed to protect the wetlands. Furthermore, since the building of the museum appears unique, it is also considered a significant landmark and tourist attraction in Yilan. On the other hand, during the Qing dynasty, Toucheng Old Street had upheld the title as economic capital because it is near the Wushi Harbor, which was the most important commercial harbor in Lanyang area then. It is expected that these social events allowed participants to network efficiently and know the culture of Taiwan.

ii. Distinguished Lecture “Foundations of Adaptive Fog Computing & Networking” given by Prof. Tony Quek Date: March 13, 2019 Venue: National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu, Taiwan Summary: Professor Tony Quek delivered an IEEE ComSoc Distinguished Lecture Talk (DLT) in National Chiao Tung University in Hsinchu, Taiwan on March 13, 2019. The host is Professor Rung-Hung Gau, which is the current chapter chair of IEEE Communications Society, Taipei Chapter. The topic of the DLT was “Foundations of Adaptive Fog Computing & Networking”. According to Professor Quek, “A recent trend during the past decade is to push various capabilities, such as computation, control, and storage, to the cloud. Such an over-dependence on the cloud, however, indicates that availability and fault tolerance issues in the cloud would directly impact millions of end-users. Such a cloud-centric architecture is not suitable for satisfying the demands of many delay-sensitive applications in future IoT. In viewing of these challenges, the cloud is now "descending" to the network edge and diffuses among the client devices in both mobile and wired networks. Such transition leads to the new paradigm of fog computing and networking.” In the talk, Professor Quek provided an overview of fog computing and networking and discussed some recent work related to this research area. There were about 60 people attending the talk, including postgraduate students and faculty members. Following the talk, we had lots of questions and discussions. iii. 2019 Summer School on Information/Communication Theory and Technologies Date: August 5 – August 8, 2019 Venue: National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu, Taiwan Summary: The 2019 Summer School on Information/Communication Theory and Technologies was held at National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu, Taiwan in August 2019.

13
Venue: National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu, Taiwan Summary: Professor Tony Quek delivered another IEEE ComSoc Distinguished Lecture Talk (DLT) in National Chiao Tung University in Hsinchu, Taiwan on Aug. 6, 2019. The host is Professor Chia-Han Lee, which is the current vice chair of IEEE Communications Society, Taipei Chapter. The title of the DLT was “Towards Massive, Ultra-Reliable, and Low-Latency Communications”. According to Professor Quek, “Massive machine type and low-latency communications are already indispensable use cases of 5G wireless networks. This will open up new ways to monitor, assist, secure, control with applications ranging from machine-type communications to mission-critical communications. In particular, interaction includes not just sensing but also simultaneous actuation of numerous connected devices, especially for services with stringent requirements on latency, reliability and availability, e.g. tactile internet. Such tactile services will require ultra-reliable low- latency communications (URLLC) with the reaction time of an object/device be around 1ms.” In the talk, Professor Quek shared a framework for guaranteeing both low-latency and ultra-reliability requirements of URLLC in the presence of massive IoT applications, and shared some of my recent works. There were about 20 people attending the talk, including postgraduate students and faculty members.

In order to design systems that will work in practice, a thorough understanding – which must be based on measurements in real-world channels - of mm-wave propagation channels is required. This talk provides an overview of such research. After a brief introduction of suitable channel sounders, the talk will concentrate on (i) requirement for street-by-street pathloss models, (ii) dynamics of angular statistics (iii) outdoor-to-indoor propagation in mm-wave bands, and (iv) spatial consistency and the change of second-order channel statistics. The impact of all those channel effects on system design and deployment planning will be elaborated. iii. Technical speech given by Prof. Weihua Zhuang from University of Waterloo, with the title “Service Provisioning in 5G Communication Networks” Time: 03/06/2019; 10:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. City: Hsinchu Country: Taiwan Attendance: 40 Event Description: The fifth generation (5G) communication networks will accommodate a wide range of emerging services with diverse service quality requirements. The network will integrate a variety of network resources and technologies to support high transmission rate and to enhance quality of experience to mobile users. The traditional one-size-fits-all network architecture cannot efficiently meet the needs of different services, due to the poor scalability, limited adaptability, and inflexibility. Network function virtualization (NFV) enabled by software defined networking (SDN) technology is a promising approach for an agile and flexible 5G networking infrastructure. In this presentation, we will provide an overview of several recent studies for 5G networks, including dynamic radio resource slicing in wireless network virtualization, computing and transmission resource allocation in the core network, and how to establish a customized virtual network topology for multicast services. iv.
