The Design and Implementation of the Illinois Express Quantum Metropolitan Area Network (June 22, 2023 2:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/108778 108778-21820381@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, June 22, 2023 2:00pm
Location: Arbor Lakes
Organized By: Information and Technology Services (ITS)

Join Information and Technology Services (ITS) in welcoming Joaquin Chung to campus for a presentation on Quantum Networking, cutting-edge research, and one of the future technologies in campus network computing. This will be a very technical presentation geared for researchers and technologists.

Chung is a research scientist at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory who is working on the Illinois Express Quantum Metropolitan Area Network (IE QMAN). The IE QMAN is a functioning test bed that supports the transmission of quantum network traffic over existing dark fiber networks. This talk will describe details around the network control and physics involved in quantum data transmission.

Special Invitation:
Joaquin Chung will be available to chat with U-M researchers Thursday and Friday mornings during his time in Ann Arbor. If you would like to schedule a meeting with him, email T. Charles Yun (tcyun@umich.edu) to schedule an appointment.

Joaquin Chung is a postdoctoral appointee at the Data Science and Learning Division at Argonne National Laboratory. He received both his B.S. in Electronics and Communications Engineering (2007) and his M.Sc. in Communication Systems Engineering with Emphasis in Data Networks (2013) from University of Panama, Panama. He received his Ph.D in Electrical and Computer Engineering under the supervision of Dr. Henry Owen and Dr. Russ Clark at Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA in December 2017. He is a Fulbright alumni, an IEEE member, and an ACM member. His research interests include software-defined networking, software-defined exchanges, cyber-infrastructure orchestration, edge computing, network security, and quantum communication networks.

Privacy@Michigan Keynote - The Economics of Privacy at a Crossroads (January 31, 2024 4:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/117760 117760-21839982@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, January 31, 2024 4:30pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Information and Technology Services (ITS)

Dr. Alessandro Acquisti, Trustees Professor of Information Technology and Public Policy at Carnegie Mellon University's Heinz College, and the co-director of the CMU Center for Behavioral Decision Research (CBDR), will deliver a presentation on the economics of privacy in the context of augmenting economic arguments with non-economic considerations in order to address the broad concept of privacy.

Dr. Acquisti will discuss how the economics of privacy could expand its horizons and relevance both by considering economic dimensions and research questions that have so far received limited attention, and by accounting for the broader scholarship on privacy coming from other disciplines. As a complement to the contributions of other fields, rather than a substitute for them, the economics of privacy may keep thriving and remain a useful tool for debate and policy making.

Dr. Andrea Forte, Professor of Information and Dean of the University of Michigan School of Information, will deliver opening remarks.

Dr. Florian Schaub, Associate Professor of Information, School of Information, and Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, College of Engineering, will facilitate a panel discussion including Dr. Nazanin Andalibi, U-M Assistant Professor of Information, School of Information and Assistant Professor of Digital Studies Institute, College of LSA and Dr. Kirsten Martin, William P. and Hazel B. White Professor of Technology Ethics and is Professor of IT, Analytics, and Operations in the Mendoza College of Business at the University of Notre Dame, after the presentation.

The event is free and open to the public.
