Telford Apprentices 2006 07 Why should civil engineers address the Sustainabi...katfyt
Civil engineers have a fundamental role in addressing sustainability. As designers, builders, and managers of infrastructure, they are responsible for projects that significantly impact the environment and society. Young engineers today understand the effects of past engineering decisions and must design with sustainability in mind. This includes considering environmental impacts over a project's entire lifecycle from planning and materials to long-term usage. As leaders and innovators, engineers are well-positioned to advance sustainability and ensure infrastructure meets future needs.
Intelligent buildings integrate technological systems, communications, and controls to create flexible, effective, comfortable, and secure environments for owners, operators, and occupants. Green buildings are high-performance buildings that maximize user comfort and productivity while minimizing environmental impact through integration of technologies, materials, and design features. Technologies and integrated intelligent building systems can help buildings achieve energy efficiency objectives and meet the needs of those constructing or retrofitting green buildings. Accessibility and affordability of these technologies is a consideration.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

12th October 2010
Tuesday, 8.15am - 5.30pm
Sime Darby Convention Centre
Energy has become one of the major challenges and many countries are
concerned not only on the sufficient energy resources to power life, but
rather the impact of the many sources of energy on life itself.
Green Energy is energy that is produced with lesser negative impact to the
environment than energy sources like fossil fuels, which are often produced
with harmful side effects. “GREENER” types of energy that often comes to
mind are solar, wind, geothermal and hydro energy. Nuclear energy is
sometimes considered as green energy source because of its lower waste
output relative to energy sources such as coal or oil.
One of the goals of Green Energy Technology is to take existing fossil fuel
energy technology and clean it up. Many scientists are trying to find ways
to extract energy from coal and other fossil fuels without all of the harmful
side effects. The success of such these types of green energy depends upon
the ability to extract harmful by-products from fossil fuels while not only
being energy efficient, but by being cost efficient as well.
Here in this conference our main objective is to educate and discuss
further the recent development of Green Energy towards our Building
Technology in Asia Pacific Region. We also want to promote The Institution
of Engineering and Technology (IET) in the Asia Pacific Region.

2. Green Energy in Building Technology Conference
12th October 2010
Sime Darby Convention Centre
Introduction
Green Energy is a type of energy that contributes towards lowering global warming or pollution to the environment. Green
energy sources are found in the sun and wind. It is converted into usable electrical power through the use of solar panels,
windmills and passive heating.
Harnessing the sun’s energy using solar panels with photovoltaic cells can convert the energy into electrical power for use
in the green home. Passive energy can be used to heat water for domestic hot water use in the kitchen, bathroom and
laundry.
In this conference we will discuss the efficiency of Green Energy towards the building technologies available in the Asia
Pacific Region. Although new technologies are constantly being developed to complement current practices in creating
greener structures, the common objective in this conference is to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on
human health and the natural environment. This is done by efficiently using energy, water, and other resources in lowering
the cost and increasing the competitiveness in building management.
Conference
Green Energy in Building Technology will be held in a day with sessions on specific themes. There will be two sessions
which are the plenary sessions and panel discussion. The topic that will be discuss are:
Malaysian Government Green Initiative
Energy Saving in Chiller
