30 April 2024

This webinar discussed how to achieve the delicate equilibrium of deploying AI systems that can harmoniously integrate transparency, privacy, and performance requirements.

7 May 2024

The price of distributed machine learning

This webinar discussed the hurdles of distributed Machine Learning (ML) and how they can be solved by leveraging dynamic structures of ML models which already exists as well as techniques for the compression of ML models and input datasets.

4 June 2024

After introducing VisionX, this webinar will highlight the importance of transmitting semantic information as opposed to raw data that is either redundant, stale or useless to a receiver to carry out a task.

11 June 2024

This webinar investigates the challenges of deploying generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) at the edge to enhance privacy and efficiently use network and computational resources. It addresses the challenges of implementing efficient distributed learning for generative AI applications, such as Large Language Models.

18 June 2024

This webinar will provide an overview of the genesis and evolution of network virtualization, present key underlying challenges and solution ideas, and an outlook to end-to-end 5G and beyond network slicing.

25 June 2024

This webinar will dive into advantages, challenges and perspectives of networked robotics and communication system addressing research and development aspects charting interdisciplinary paths forward to realize multi-robot systems' full potential.
