Join us to hear the vision, goals and programme of the 4 new Quantum Technology Hubs as part of the new National Strategy.

What benefits would manufacturing in space bring to society. What challenges will need to be overcome to realise these benefits and what technologies are key to achieve this. Hear from our competition abstract chosen entries.

The rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has significantly increased network attacks and cyber threats, necessitating robust and efficient Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS). Traditional IDS approaches often struggle with the unique challenges posed by IoT environments, such as data privacy concerns, device heterogeneity, and limited computational resources. This talk will focus on the innovative use of Federated Machine Learning (FML) to enhance intrusion detection in IoT environments. FML mitigates data privacy risks while maintaining the ability to learn from a diverse range of data sources using decentralised model training approach. Highlighting the potential of FML as a solution to strengthen IDS effectiveness against evolving cyber threats, along with other real-world applications in IoT networks.

This talk will provide a general introduction to the use of deep neural networks in image recognition settings and focus on how to overcome data scarcity, using animal behavioural research as a prominent example.

The distribution electricity networks in Berkshire are owned and maintained by SSEN. This presentation is to discuss how Low Carbon Technologies (LCTs) such as renewable generation and BESS are connected into SSEN distribution electricity networks and the challenges it is facing. And to briefly introduce SSEN's efforts to release the capacity of the local distribution networks in Berkshire to help accelerate the LCT connections in the area to help reach the net-zero future.

Explore what embedded engineers and developers need to know to implement quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms effectively.

This talk will present the journey from traditional methods to new technologies and discuss the challenges in getting from scientific theory to a product that navies can use. 

During the 1930s, with the London Naval Treaty of 1930 placing limitations on heavy cruiser warship construction and characteristics, the US, Japanese and British navies attempted to circumvent the restrictions on heavy cruiser construction by building light cruisers (vessels with an armament no heavier than 6.1in / 155mm) of similar size and fighting power to conventional heavy cruisers with 8in artillery. In Britain, this resulted first in the 10 Town class vessels, and latterly the reduced Fiji (aka Crown Colony) and Minotaur classes, built to fulfill the obligations of the Second London Naval Treaty of 1936.

This presentation proposes some results on observer design and methods of fault detection filter synthesis for a class of nonlinear systems.

Point to point microwave radio systems have been in operation since the 1940s however in today’s world of fibre and satellite communications these fixed radio links often go unmentioned, despite their significant usage.
