IEEE CASS Rio de Janeiro Tour 2022
T
he IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS)
Rio de Janeiro Chapter intends that this year, in
which we have the chance to visit the universities
in person after a long-time pandemic situation, the
immediate work is to bring student members back to in
person events. This can attract new student and professional
CASS members from the Rio de Janeiro state. One
of the major tasks of our 2022 plans starts by performing
at least one CASS presentation in several universities
with electrical or computer engineering in Rio de
Janeiro state in order to discuss the variety of opportunities
and international insertion of CASS members.
Therefore, an IEEE CASS Rio Tour was organized in Rio
de Janeiro, Brazil, by the IEEE CASS Rio Chapter in collaboration
with the Federal Center for Technological
Education (CEFET/RJ), Fluminense Federal University
(UFF), and Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ).
The first workshop of the IEEE CASS Rio Tour was organized
in cooperation with the Federal Center for Technological
Education of Rio de Janeiro (CEFET/RJ) and
featured the participation of graduate students, undergraduate
students, and professors of electrical engineering.
It was held at the Maracanã Campus, CEFET/RJ, on July
22, 2022, and was composed of the following talks (Fig. 1):
■ Prof. Fabián Olivera (CEFET-RJ, Brazil), from 2:00
to 2:20 PM, " IEEE Circuits and Systems Society Opportunities " .
■
Profa. Alexandra Zimpeck (Catholic University
of Pelotas, Brazil), from 2:20 to 3:20 PM, " Main Factors
Affecting the Reliability of Integrated Circuits
in Nanotechnologies " .
The following workshop of the IEEE CASS Rio Tour
was organized in cooperation with the Fluminense Federal
University (UFF). It was held in Niteroi, at the Praia
Vermelha Campus, UFF, on August 2, 2022, and was composed
of the following invited talks (Fig. 2):
■ Prof. Ricardo Reis (Federal University of Rio
Grande do Sul, Brazil), from 14:00 to 14:45 PM,
" Trends in Computing and Microelectronics " .
■ Prof. Ricardo Reis, from 2:45 to 3:30 PM, " IEEE
Circuits and Systems Society, Opportunities and
International Insertion " .
