In this year's prestigious Turing Lecture, Professor Sir Michael Brady will explore this very question, drawing on the experience of 20 years work at Oxford University. Summarising his knowledge in the areas of mobile robotics, computer vision, signal processing, medical image analysis and artificial intelligence, he will then examine what information engineering really means and the possibilities for the future of this field. 2009-01-28 12:00:00.0 IT 936 Presentation from BCS/IET Turing Lecture 2009 What is the future of Information Engineering?

Sir Michael Brady The all-pervasive nature of the general-purpose computer has made the most profound mark on almost every aspect of our lives. The central seminal figure in this computer revolution was Alan Turing, whose outstanding originality and vision made it possible, in work originating in the mid 1930s. Although it is now hard to see what the limits of the computer revolution might eventually be, it was Turing himself who pointed out to us the very existence of such theoretical limitations. http://tv.theiet.org/technology/infopro/935.cfm From: The John Logie Baird Lecture This year’s John Logie Baird Lecture aims to mark the 40th Anniversary of the IFIP’68 presentations by Dr Davies and his colleagues, and the contributions that Dr Davies, the National Physical Laboratory and the UK made to the development of the technology of the Internet and the UK’s contribution to the Internet’s future. 2008-12-09 05:30:22.0 IT 935 From: The John Logie Baird Lecture This year’s John Logie Baird Lecture aims to mark the 40th Anniversary of the IFIP’68 presentations by Dr Davies and his colleagues, and the contributions that Dr Davies, the National Physical Laboratory and the UK made to the development of the technology of the Internet and the UK’s contribution to the Internet’s future.

The Pinkerton Lectures will take a perspective based on computer engineering but broad enough to invoke parallels from elsewhere, and will explore the steps along the path from innovation to application. Each lecture will aim to identify the processes involved in such a transition, analyse their ingredients and determine how they can be replicated. The Olympic Games in Beijing in 2008 were truly the first digital Games in terms of public viewing. By 2012 digital media will be ubiquitous and the demand for digital coverage will be far higher than in 2008. Yet the average age of Games viewers has increased by almost 20 years since 1988. Attracting young people is crucial for the Olympic and Paralympic movement’s survival. But, faced with a huge number of competing demands for their time, young people are largely disengaged. London 2012’s vision is to ''use the power of the Games to inspire change'' and the London Organising Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) is determined to engage, inspire and reconnect young people with the Games. 2008-12-02 02:12:55.0 IT 933 The 2008 Pinkerton Lecture, London, UK.
