SUMMARY:MEAM Seminar: "Additive Manufacturing and Architected Materials"
DESCRIPTION:Material properties are governed by the chemical composition and spatial arrangement of constituent elements. Over the past decade\, the field of architected materials has sought to design\, fabricate\, and demonstrate materials with performance that is fundamentally controlled by geometry at multiple length-scales rather than chemical composition alone. There have been many advancements ranging from the maturation of additive manufacturing technologies which can be used to realize these materials\, to inverse design methods such as topology optimization\, and even includes unique new material feedstocks which make up the structures. This presentation will touch on all aspects of the architected materials realization process as well as evaluate performance of some of those materials. Specifically\, we have demonstrated designer properties of these architected materials in polymers\, metals\, ceramics and combinations thereof. In addition to novel properties such as ultra-stiff lightweight materials\, negative stiffness\, and negative thermal expansion\, I will present multifunctional architected materials with energy storage capability and architectures that respond to external fields. Many of these architected materials derived from advanced design and optimization methods which we have been developing and were fabricated with custom additive manufacturing techniques. These include projection microstereolithography (PµSL)\, direct ink writing (DIW)\, electrophoretic deposition (EPD)\, volumetric additive manufacturing (VAM)\, computed axial lithography (CAL)\, and diode-based additive manufacturing (DiAM) to name a few. New materials including graphene aerogel\, carbon fiber composites\, and printed glass will also be touched upon.

SUMMARY:CIS Seminar: "Making Parallelism Pervasive with the Swarm Architecture"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nParallelism is critical to achieve high performance in modern computer systems. Unfortunately\, most programs scale poorly beyond a few cores\, and those that scale well often require heroic implementation efforts. This is because current architectures squander most of the parallelism available in applications and are too hard to program. \nI will present Swarm\, a new architecture that exploits far more parallelism than conventional multicores and is almost as easy to program as a sequential thread. Swarm programs consist of tiny tasks\, as small as tens of instructions each. Synchronization is implicit: the programmer specifies a total or partial order on tasks. This eliminates the correctness pitfalls of explicit synchronization (e.g. deadlock and data races). Swarm hardware uncovers parallelism by speculatively running tasks out of order\, even thousands of tasks ahead of the earliest active task. Its speculation mechanisms build on decades of prior work\, but Swarm is the first to scale to hundreds of cores due to its new programming model\, distributed structures\, and distributed protocols. Swarm also incorporates new techniques to reduce data movement\, harness nested parallelism\, and combine speculative and non-speculative parallelism. \nSwarm achieves efficient near-linear scaling to hundreds of cores on challenging irregular applications. These span a broad set of domains\, including graph analytics\, machine learning\, databases\, simulation\, and more. Swarm even accelerates applications that are often deemed sequential. It outperforms state-of-the-art software-only parallel algorithms by one to two orders of magnitude\, and sequential implementations by up to 600x at 256 cores.

SUMMARY:BE Grace Hopper Lecture: Powering tumor cell migration through heterogeneous microenvironments
DESCRIPTION:To move through tissues\, cancer cells must navigate a complex\, heterogeneous network of fibers in the extracellular matrix.  This network of fibers also provides chemical\, structural and mechanical cues to the resident cells.  In this talk\, I will describe my lab’s efforts to understand the forces driving cell movements in the tumor microenvironment.  Combining tissue engineering approaches\, mouse models\, and patient samples\, we create and validate in vitro systems to understand how cells navigate the tumor stroma environment. Microfabrication and native biomaterials are used to build mimics of the paths created and taken by cells during metastasis. Using these platforms\, we have described a role for a balance between cellular energetics\, cell and matrix stiffness\, and confinement in determining migration behavior. Moreover\, we have extended this work into investigating the role of the mechanical microenvironment in tumor angiogenesis to show that mechanics guides vessel growth and integrity. I will discuss the mechanical influences at play during tumor progression and the underlying biological mechanisms driving angiogenesis and metastatic cell migration as a function of the ECM with an eye towards potential therapeutic avenues.
