Title: Engineering in Cities, Complexity & Urban Design
Speaker: Prof Eric J. Miller, Department of Civil & Mineral Engineering, Director of University of Toronto Transportation Research Institute (UTTRI), University of Toronto
Abstract:
Cities are complex systems of systems: physical, economic, social and political. Whether dealing with physical infrastructure design, real estate markets, environmental impact mitigation or the cost-effective delivery of social services, an understanding of both of how an individual system operates (e.g., transportation system performance) and how this system interacts with other key systems (land development, the urban economy, etc.) is essential for successful system design, implementation and management. Taking the concept of cities as problems in organized complexity (Jacobs, 1961), as its starting point, this lecture explores the nature of this complexity and how complex systems theory can help us understand and manage dynamic, socio-economic urban processes. This leads to the introduction of agent-based microsimulation as a practical, powerful approach to modelling such processes. Examples from Toronto are used to illustrate the application of such models in practice. Possible applications in Hong Kong are also explored.
Brief Biography:
Eric J. Miller is Past Chair of the U.S. Transportation Research Board (TRB) Committee on Travel Behavior and Values, Member Emeritus of the TRB Transportation Demand Forecasting Committee and Past Chair of the International Association for Travel Behaviour Research. He served on the US National Academy of Sciences Committee for Determination of the State of the Practice in Metropolitan Area Travel Forecasting. He has chaired or been a member of numerous travel demand modelling peer review panels throughout North America. He is the recipient of the 2009 Wilbur S. Smith Distinguished Educator Award from the Institute of Transportation Engineers and the inaugural winner of the University of British Columbia Margolese National Design for Living Award (2012). He is the developer of GTAModel, a best practice regional travel demand modeling system used by municipalities in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) to forecast travel demand; TASHA, a state-of-the-art activity-based microsimulation travel demand model; and ILUTE, an integrated land use-transportation model system for the GTA.
Dr. Stan Wong
Title: GSMA 5G Security Task Force
Speaker: Dr. Stan Wong, Industry Security Analyst, GSMA
Abstract:
GSM Association 5G Security Task Force (5GSTF) aims to collaborate with Warning, Advice, Reporting Point (WARP), minimises 5G Warning with zero defect control approach, raises Advice and Awareness of the entire system security, advises on the system integration with secure software, makes Awareness on new attacking vectors, and provides online reporting point via GSM Association (GSMA) website. 5GSTF has a set of security tasks: 1) 5G trust model towards the Next Generation Network Trust Model, 2) secure resources manipulation when provisioning, allocating, deploying, configuring, activating, modifying, de-activating and terminating resources under network function virtualisation (NFV), 3) Network Slicing Security including slice isolation, 4) Network Behaviometrics Detection under flexible network and agility of services environment. The speaker will discuss various issues within the 5GSTF tasks.
Brief Biography:
Stan Wong is an Industry Security Analyst from GSMA where he sets up the 5G security task force. He was the IT consultant in South East Asia and responsible to all the operations support system, big data products and metro ethernet deployment. He is one of the winners of European Commission Collaborative Spectrum Sharing Prize. Not only he is leading the Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme 5G novel radio multiservice adaptive network architecture (5G NORMA) security, he also was the leading editor of the chapter on 5G Infrastructure Public Private Partnership (5G-PPP) security work group trust model. Furthermore, Dr Wong had been invited to give a number of talks on the information and communications technology (ICT) security, including a presentation of the Things Connected Project funded by Future Cities Catapult in the UK. This project aims to encourage the UK Internet of Things (IoT) small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to develop secure IoT applications. Last but not least, he was an invited speaker on 5G security to International Telecommunications Union (ITU) and IEEE 5G Summit.
