To understand why blockchain matters, look back at the dot-com bubble and the 14th century.





I think the course I teach on Society, Information Technology and the Global University - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html - will be able to inform some of the questions that emerge as blockchains are deployed, and with regards to Quantum computing as well.

Stanford Wearables Prashant Agrawal "Thin film ASICs for flexible wearables” June 28 2019



Asked a question this morning in a great Stanford Wearables talk, (to this effect): 

With Google releasing Bristlecone Quantum Computer chip, ten years out where do you think Quantum computing is heading with the wearables you talked about. And of the 5 technologies or platforms you described which ones would you think Quantum could develop on (the talk was recorded, and Angela McIntyre is the person who directs this series as the Executive Director of the Stanford Wearable Electronics (eWEAR) - https://profiles.stanford.edu/angela-mcintyre). 


Mar 6, 2018 - Google has just announced a new “Bristlecone” custom quantum computing chip that could lead to a major breakthrough known as “quantum ...

eWear Seminar: Thin film ASICs for flexible wearables
Sponsored by Stanford Wearable Electronics Initiative


Event Details:
One of the key challenges for wearables is that one-size-fits-all does not work. Most of the focus on customization and personalization of the wearables has been on the software and data analysis fronts. The hardware (sensors, readout, signal conditioning and processing, etc) is typically common across all the units of specific version of specific wearables. Human body has inherent variability from person to person as well as across different sites on the body. Thus, the hardware should ideally be customized across persons and across sites of body to ensure that high quality data can be captured. However, customization of hardware is constraint by high time and cost required and the trade-offs involved in customizability, cost, performance and power. This talk will present imec’s work in thin film ASICs that can enable hardware customization at lower cost and manufacturing turn-around times as well as enable flexible and skin-conformable form factors.

Prashant Agrawal received his PhD (Electrical Engineering) from KU Leuven (Belgium) in 2015 and MS (Computers Science & Engineering) from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur in 2009. He is currently the Program Manager for Thin Film Electronics at Imec Belgium. Prior to this, he had been Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Imec between 2015-18 during which he managed technical and business development activities, and fund raising for internal ventures. He worked as Senior R&D Engineer in the Hyperspectral Imaging Group at Imec (Belgium) between 2014-2015 and as Technical Staff Member in the HPC Group at IBM Research India between 2006-2009.
