Innovation enables organizations to open new avenues of product differentiation by customizing products. In today’s rapidly changing business environment, engineers must innovate quickly to incorporate new features while reducing development costs and delivering new products to the market before the competition. Simulation plays a key role in helping engineers drive innovation, enabling complete virtual prototypes of complex systems to be validated across all physics and engineering disciplines.

Join us as we return to Ottawa for our 4th Annual ANSYS Innovation Conference on May 8, 2019! This one-day conference will provide detailed insight into how leading companies are utilizing simulation to advance their product development. We will bring together ANSYS users, partners, developers, and industry experts for networking, learning, and sharing of new ideas.

What You Will Learn

• Experience new simulation capabilities that provide unprecedented design insight as they speed your time to market
• Incorporate various productivity enhancement tools and techniques into your engineering department’s workflow
• Gain insights into 5G system development with physics-based simulation and cover critical design issues, such as antenna performance, semiconductor reliability, and thermal integrity
• Identify signal integrity issues early in the design cycle for electronics IC packages, PCBs, connectors and other complex interconnects
• Modify antenna design, predict antenna efficiency and the overall thermal and EM performance of the product based on electromagnetic and thermal coupling solutions

The PATW is a global competition for Young professionals and students within engineering to develop and showcase presentation skills. Membership to the IET is not a requirement to enter, but you must be 18-30 years of age and be prepared to;

Deliver a 10 minute presentation on any engineering or technology related area. Enhance your knowledge, develop your skills, increase your profile, and open doors for your career.

Arduinos, 3D printing, Lego Mindstorms and displays, submarine
robots, and AI, where can you find all this? All of this and MUCH MORE will be at the IEEE Ottawa Robotics
Competition (ORC), Ottawa’s largest robotics competition for grade 5 to 12
students. The ORC is taking place on Sunday,
June 2^nd at Earl of March
Secondary School. Best times to show up are between 10:30 am to 12:30 pm and 1:30 pm to 4 pm. The ORC is completely
open to the public, so invite your friends and family too!

Ottawa Life Member Affinity Group presents: Ottawa L5, the first integrated Connected & Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) test environment in North America.

The Ottawa L5 private test track is a 1,866 acre, fenced and gated private facility with 16 kilometres of paved roads. The largest secure test facility for CAVs in Canada, the Ottawa L5 private test track creates an ideal proving ground for the safe and productive pre-commercial development, testing, validation and demonstration of CAV technologies. The Ottawa L5 testing facilities are equipped with GPS (RTK), dedicated short range communications (DSRC), Wi-Fi, 4G/LTE and 5G telecommunications and networking infrastructure, making it the first integrated CAV test environment of its kind in North America. Find more information at: https://www.investottawa.ca/ottawal5

Tour will last about an hour involving a walk around the site and a group discussion of various technical aspects of the L5 facility. An additional treat is the possibility of an autonomous shuttle ride at the site for some attendees.

Please register in advance with wolfram.lunscher@ieee.org by Friday October 11. Priority will be given to Life members. All members and family are welcome. There is an online liability waiver to be signed. The link will be provided to registrants.
