Agenda
3:30 PM - Check in
4 PM - An exclusive private screening of the ISI documentary “Cloudwalkers”
We will start the evening with a private screening of the documentary "Cloudwalkers: ISI and the Inventors of the Future". The film draws the arc of innovations that have come out of ISI during the last five decades. Written and directed by Emmy award-winning filmmaker Daniel Druhora, it includes numerous interviews with current and past ISI researchers. For more details on the documentary, please visit www.cloudwalkersfilm.com.
5 PM - A conversation with pioneers
We will then be joined remotely by Vint Cerf, internet pioneer and long-time collaborator of ISI, who will give a few brief perspective about the institute. Following this, a panel will discuss new directions that are emerging in AI, networking, microelectronics, and quantum information sciences. Daniel Druhora will moderate, and will be joined by Steve Crago (ISI’s Associate Director leading a rebirth in microelectronics) and Kevin Knight (AI trailblazer whose ISI team architected game-changing paradigm shifts in automated language translation) Paul Mockapetris (who invented the Domain Name System while at ISI, and narrated the documentary), and Eve Schooler (who pioneered Internet standards for multimedia and distributed computing at ISI).
6 PM - Immerse yourself in the future of information sciences
The evening will include a networking event hosted by Craig Knoblock, ISI Executive Director, who will introduce major new initiatives at ISI that will be shown in more detail in a poster session. This will be a unique opportunity for one-on-one interactions and deeper discussions with current ISI researchers and students about how ISI is reimagining the future.
We look forward to seeing you at this event!
