Bakerian Lecture 2017 by Professor Andy Hopper CBE FREng FRS
Digital technology is becoming an indispensable and crucial component of our lives, society, and the physical environment.
A challenge is how to use the power of computing to deal with the problems facing the world. In his talk, Professor Andy Hopper will present a framework for the role of computing in dealing with sustainability of the planet. The framework has a number of goals: an optimal digital infrastructure; sensing and optimising the use of resources in the physical world; guaranteeing the performance of indispensable systems; and digital alternatives to physical activities.
Join us to hear Professor Hopper discuss practical industrial examples alongside research goals and societal challenges and dilemmas.
