Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is a technology framework that brings computational resources, including processing power, storage, and network connectivity, closer to mobile devices and users. In MEC, these resources are deployed at the edge of the cellular network, typically in close proximity to cell towers and base stations. This contrasts with traditional cloud computing, where data processing and storage occur in centralized data centers that can be distant from the end-user. Key aspects and features of MEC include Low Latency, Proximity, Resource Optimization, Scalability, Context Awareness and Security. Security measures are implemented at the edge to protect sensitive data and ensure the integrity of the network. This can include encryption, access control, and authentication mechanisms. Applications and use cases of MEC are diverse and include AR/VR, IoT, Content Delivery, Connected Vehicles, Smart Grids. MEC is also a critical component in the evolution of 5G networks. The webinar will provide a forum for researchers and engineers from academia and industry to develop a deep understanding of MEC Security. The participants would be exposed to wide and diverse topics in MEC Security, *This event is being recorded Co-sponsored by: IEEE Future Networks Speaker(s): Rajeev Shorey, Giridhar (Giri) D.

The first 2024 IEEE Montclair State University STEM Fair will be held on Feb. 21, 2024 (please see the flyer beside for detailed time and location). This new event will be an introduction to promote various of the university’s research laboratories and clubs, meet colleagues in STEM fields, and check out cool equipment the university has here on campus. Each lab and club are dedicated to developing STEM not only within their own discipline but also within other majors across campus. Attendees will have the ability to network with their peers and demonstrate their projects to university students and faculty, local schools, and the public.This event will be co-organized by the IEEE Montclair Student Branch, IEEE STEM Champion Montclair Site, IEEE North Jersey Section SMC Chapter, IEEE North Jersey Section RAS Chapter, Montclair CRoSS Lab, and Montclair Robotics Club. Plenty of other clubs and labs will also be in attendance. If you are looking for a new way to get involved on campus and to network within the IEEE and STEM atmosphere, we hope to see you there!Room: 120, Bldg: CELS, 1 Normal Ave, Montclair, New Jersey, United States, 07043
