From Assistants to Agents: Building Governed AI Work on Pega Tech Talk Abstract Generative AI in the enterprise has reached an awkward middle age. The demos are impressive, the pilots are plentiful, and yet most organizations still struggle to put an AI agent anywhere near a process that actually matters — a loan decision, a claim, a dispute, a servicing request. The gap is not model capability. It is trust, traceability, and cost. This session looks at how Pega approaches that gap, and what it means for teams building on the platform today. We will start with where generative AI already lives inside Pega: as design-time acceleration rather than runtime guesswork. Blueprint turns a described process into a build-ready application design, Infinity Studio brings AI into the development environment itself, and Knowledge Buddy grounds answers in an organization's own content instead of an open-ended model. The through-line is Pega's Predictable AI architecture, which pushes the heavy reasoning into design time so that runtime stays token-efficient and repeatable. From there we move to agents. Infinity 26 lets developers connect and orchestrate both Pega and third-party agents inside governed workflows, so agents can join mission-critical processes with control, compliance, and predictable outcomes. Agentic Process Fabric provides the orchestration layer, with support for Model Context Protocol and Agent-to-Agent so agents can coordinate across applications and platforms, and with security controls that regulate which agents talk to whom. MCP now works in both directions: external harnesses and assistants can invoke Pega workflows, and Pega can reach outward. We will unpack what that architecture buys you — and what it asks of you in exchange. The session then turns to the uncomfortable part. Agentic projects fail for mundane reasons: unbounded token spend, inconsistent outputs, no audit trail, and code nobody wants to own. Pega's own research put the defect rate of AI-generated code at roughly 1.7 times that of human-written code — tolerable in a prototype, unacceptable in a system that pays or denies a customer. We will look at where a deterministic workflow should stay deterministic, where an LLM genuinely adds value, and how human-in-the-loop checkpoints should be designed rather than bolted on afterward. Pricing gets the same treatment: Pega's flat fee per resolved case rather than per token changes the economics of scaling, and it is worth understanding why. We will close with a worked example — an agent built to analyze business requirements and produce level-of-effort estimates, grounded in a real connector catalog and real estimation rules. It is a small, unglamorous use case, and that is the point: it shows how knowledge grounding, guardrails, and honest scoping matter more than model choice, and why the right framing for these agents is assistance to expert practitioners rather than replacement of them. Attendees will leave with a clear map of Pega's GenAI and agentic capabilities, a set of criteria for deciding which work is a good candidate for an agent, and a realistic view of the governance and cost questions to answer before anything reaches production.

Quantum-Edge Cloud Computing (QECC): Revolutionizing Distributed Intelligence Across Decentralized Networks ABSTRACT The exponential proliferation of connected devices, the emergence of latency-sensitive applications, and the increasing complexity of real-world optimization problems have collectively exposed the fundamental limitations of conventional cloud computing frameworks. Quantum-Edge Cloud Computing (QECC) is a transformative and forward-looking paradigm that addresses these systemic constraints by orchestrating the complementary strengths of quantum computing, edge computing, and cloud computing into a unified, hierarchical architecture for distributed intelligence. This presentation provides a rigorous, end-to-end exploration of QECC — from its theoretical underpinnings to its real-world deployment potential. We begin by examining the foundational principles of each constituent technology: quantum mechanics concepts such as superposition, entanglement, and quantum advantage; edge computing's distributed, low-latency processing paradigm; and cloud computing's scalable, on-demand service models (IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS). The talk then advances to detail the integrated technical architecture of QECC, elucidating how quantum processors (accessed via the cloud) handle complex combinatorial computations, while edge nodes manage real-time data preprocessing and immediate actionable inference — forming a coherent and efficient data pipeline. A central focus of this presentation is QECC's transformative benefits: optimized data flow that eliminates bandwidth bottlenecks, instantaneous quantum-driven analytical insights at the network edge, and significantly enhanced privacy and security through quantum key distribution (QKD) and quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols. These advantages are illustrated through compelling, real-world industry applications spanning healthcare (quantum-enhanced genomic analysis and medical imaging), logistics (quantum-optimized supply chain management), and smart city infrastructure (real-time traffic management and city-scale resource allocation). The presentation concludes with a candid assessment of the current challenges confronting QECC at scale — including quantum hardware immaturity (limited qubit counts and elevated error rates), complex system integration requirements, energy sustainability concerns, and the absence of standardized orchestration frameworks. Looking ahead, we map the most critical research frontiers: quantum-native algorithms optimized for edge deployment, hybrid quantum-classical AI systems, and the long-term convergence of QECC with emerging 6G network infrastructure. This presentation is designed for technology leaders, researchers, and engineers who seek to understand not only the theoretical promise of QECC, but also the strategic and architectural decisions required to position organizations at the frontier of this convergence. Attendees will leave with a concrete understanding of where quantum-edge-cloud integration stands today, where it is headed, and how to prepare data infrastructure and cross-domain expertise for the next generation of distributed intelligent systems. KEY TOPICS COVERED ▸ Fundamentals of quantum computing, edge computing, and cloud computing ▸ Integrated QECC technical architecture and data pipeline design ▸ Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and quantum-resistant security protocols ▸ Real-world industry applications: healthcare, logistics, and smart cities ▸ Current hardware and integration challenges limiting QECC adoption ▸ Future research frontiers: edge-optimized quantum algorithms, AI-QECC convergence, and 6G integration ▸ Strategic guidance for technology leaders on infrastructure readiness Speaker(s): Ripalkumar Patel, P.Eng. & Ph.D. Candidate, Ripalkumar Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/574657 |

IEEE Information Theory Society Distinguished Lecture Title: Generative Modeling in Probability Space: From Wasserstein Optimization to Local Flow Matching Speaker:Yao Xie ((https://www.isye.gatech.edu/users/yao-xie)) ((https://www2.isye.gatech.edu/~yxie77/YaoXie_CV.pdf)) ((https://www2.isye.gatech.edu/~yxie77/YaoXie_2page.pdf)) (https://www.isye.gatech.edu/news/yao-xie-driving-data-science-innovation-coca-cola-foundation-chair) and Professor (http://www.isye.gatech.edu/) Associate Director, (https://ml.gatech.edu/) Adjunct Professor, (https://www.ece.gatech.edu/) (http://www.gatech.edu/) Abstract: How can we learn complex probability distributions through a sequence of simpler transformations with theoretical guarantees? This talk presents flow-based generative modeling as iterative computation in probability space, connecting optimization, transport, and diffusion. I will first discuss JKO flow models, which implement proximal optimization in Wasserstein space. I will explain how convergence of the forward data-to-noise process yields guarantees for reverse generation, with bounds in Kullback-Leibler divergence that account for per-step optimization errors. I will then introduce Local Flow Matching, which learns short transformations between nearby distributions along a diffusion path. This construction enables smaller models and efficient training, with generation guarantees in chi-square divergence derived from diffusion contraction. Together, these results illustrate how optimization in probability space can guide the design and analysis of generative models. The talk will emphasize mathematical intuition and selected theoretical results, complemented by numerical examples. This is based on joint work with Xiuyuan Cheng, Jianfeng Lu, Yixin Tan, and Chen Xu.

In such links, short wavelengths permit massive spatial multiplexing both for network nodes and point-point links, permitting aggregate transmission capacities approaching 1Tb/s. 100-300GHz radar imaging systems can provide thousands of image pixels and sub-degree angular resolution from small apertures, supporting foul-weather driving and aviation. Challenges include the mm-wave IC designs, the physical design of the front-end modules, the complexity of the back-end digital beamformer required for spatial multiplexing, and, for imaging, the development of system architectures requiring far fewer RF channels than the number of image pixels. We will describe transistor development, IC design, and system design, and describe our efforts to develop 140GHz massive MIMO wireless hubs, and 210GHz and 280GHz MIMO backhaul links. Bio: Mark Rodwell holds the Doluca Family Endowed Chair in Electrical and Computer Engineering at UCSB and directs the SRC/DARPA Center for Converged TeraHertz Communications and Sensing. His research group develops nm and THz transistors, and high-frequency integrated circuits and systems. Prof. Rodwell received the 2010 IEEE Sarnoff Award, the 2012 Marconi Prize Paper Award, the 1997 IEEE Microwave Prize, the 2009 IEEE IPRM Conference Award, and the 1998 European Microwave Conference Microwave Prize.

Senior Member Elevation: IEEE SEM Section Membership Committee will reprise its Senior Member Elevation event, on September 19th, 2026 between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM () . The way it works is : At least a 10 years of experience with BS degree needs be be established to initiate the senior membership elevation. (A Ph.D is considered to be 5 years of significant experience and a master degree is considered to be 2 years of significant experience. The remaining 5 (with PhD) to 8 (with MS degree) years of significant experience should be established from the member experience in his/her profession to initiate and submit applications for Senior Member Elevation.) Note: There is no cost to becoming a Senior Member, and this step is a necessary prelude to seeking the IEEE ‘Fellow’ level. For a complete description of the Senior Member process and its benefits, see the link at: https://www.ieee.org/membership_services/membership/grade_elevation.html To (https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/569325)for "Elevation" Time Slot, please(https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/569325)for the event and consider contacting existing senior members/fellows as references; also bring an electronic copy of your resume, and relevant supporting materials (list of papers published, standards work done, patents, senior/leadership positions, etc.).

Synopsis Most engineering teams have access to AI tools, but access alone rarely translates into measurable value. Adoption tends to be uneven - some engineers use AI deeply, others hardly at all - and leaders are often left without a clear sense of whether it is helping or not. The gap is not the technology; it is the lack of structure around how people adopt it. This presentation introduces PRIME-AI (Persona-based, Responsible, Impact-Measured Enablement for Artificial Intelligence); a framework which will help engineering teams move from scattered AI experimentation to a governed, repeatable practice. The central idea is that effective AI adoption is a people-and-workflow challenge, not a tool-selection one. Because different roles face different friction points, PRIME-AI takes a persona-based approach: each role receives its own task maps, curated prompt patterns, tiered training and clear guardrails - so engineers know not only which tool to use but how, when and with what safeguards. The talk will share how the framework came together, what emerged from testing it with real teams and how others can adapt it to themselves, teams and organizations. Key Takeaway: The understanding of practical, reusable interview guide, persona-based prompt libraries, a tiered training model, governance guardrails and a measurement schema for tracking adoption and impact. Agenda: Thursday September 24th, 2026 (times are CST -- for Minnesota) 6:00 PM: Check-in. Socialize. 6:30 PM: Presentation -- From Tool to Practice, Rethinking How Engineering Teams Adopt AI -- Kumar Avizeet 7:15 PM: Q&A and general discussion. 7:30 PM: Conclusion.

Abstract: Sodium channel, are linked to monogenic causes of variable onset epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, and epileptic encephalopathies. While the mechanism for SCN2A haploinsufficiency and concomitant loss of function has been explored in detail, the impact of missense SCN2A variants is less clear due to a paucity of studies looking at neuronal function. To address this roadblock, we applied high-throughput all-optical electrophysiology to patient-derived neurons with the p.M1879T variant compared to CRIPSR-corrected isogenic lines. We complemented the findings in these ‘Optopatch’ experiments with conventional patch-clamp electrophysiology. The p.M1879T variant neurons had significantly increased firing rates compared to isogenic controls at higher and longer optical stimuli, indicating increased firing reserve. These neurons tended to fire later into the pulse as well, demonstrating resistance to depolarization block. Machine learning-based classification was able to differentiate the neuron genotype with high accuracy (>95%) based on these evoked firing parameters. We further applied high-throughput optical electrophysiology to characterize the effect of different clinically available sodium channel blocking agents on evoked neuronal firing: carbamazepine, phenytoin, lacosamide, and cenobamate. Compared to DMSO-treated controls, all anti-seizure medications resulted in a dose-dependent reduction of evoked firing. Select concentrations of drugs were able to partially rescue the variant firing close to isogenic levels, demonstrating translational application of our in vitro findings. These results provide the first application of high-throughput iPSC-derived neuron electrophysiology and pharmacology in SCN2A-related disorders, demonstrating proof that this platform can be readily applied to a variety of monogenic models of epilepsy Speaker(s): Sashmita, Agenda: 10.00 am - Introduction of the speaker 10.05 am - Presentation 10.45 am - Q&A session 11.00 am - Conclusion Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/570819

This session explores why traditional identity and access controls fall short when autonomous AI agents can invoke tools, access resources, and delegate work across systems. It introduces context graphs—a practical way to model agent identities, permissions, tools, MCP servers, resources, and delegation paths—so security teams can evaluate the complete chain of activity instead of reviewing each API call in isolation. The talk covers excessive agency, privilege chaining, MCP tool poisoning, lateral movement, and graph-aware policy enforcement. A live Java demonstration will walk through three scenarios: a legitimate request, a blocked privilege-escalation attempt, and a risky multi-hop path that traditional access controls would allow. 💡 Practical security patterns for agentic AI 🖥️ Live policy-engine demonstration 💬 Interactive audience Q&A Open to engineers, architects, security professionals, students, and anyone interested in building and governing secure AI agents.
