IEEE Tensymp 2016

TENSYMP 2016 (atau lengkapnya: The 2016 IEEE Region 10 Annual Symposium) telah dilaksanakan di Sanur Paradise Plaza, Bali, tanggal 9–11 Mei 2016 lalu. Sebanyak 213 paper didaftarkan dalam simposium ini, namun hanya 96 yang lolos seleksi komite, yang artinya acceptance rate hanya 45%. Dari jumlah itu, 72 paper dipresentasikan dalam simposium ini.

Walaupun dinamai sebagai simposium, TENSYMP sebenarnya memiliki tingkatan sebagai sebuah konferensi; dan merupakan konferensi terbesar kedua yang dimiliki oleh IEEE Region 10 (Asia Pasifik). Namun TENSYMP masih berusia muda. Konferensi di Bali ini hanyalah TENSYMP keempat. Tujuannya adalah meningkatkan peran IEEE dalam pengembangan dan peningkatan kesejahteraan masyarakat Asia-Pasifik melalui penyebaran pengetahuan dan pengalaman teknologi. Konferensi ini dibuka oleh Direktur IEEE Region 10, Ramakrishna Kappagantu, disertai oleh:

  • Satriyo Dharmanto, IEEE Indonesia Section Chair
  • Dr. Ford Lumban Gaol, IEEE TENSYMP 2016 General Co-Chair
  • Kuncoro Wastuwibowo, IEEE TENSYMP 2016 General Co-Chair
  • Prof. Gamantyo Hendrantoro, IEEE TENSYMP 2016 TPC Chair
  • Dr. Basuki Yusuf Iskandar, Kepala Riset dan Pengembangan SDM Kemkominfo

Topik TENSYMP tahun ini kami pilih dengan mempertimbangkan posisi Asia-Pasifik sebagai pusat riset, pengembangan, dan bisnis TIK. Kita berada di tengah pengembangan perangkat, layanan, dan aplikasi digital yang berproliferasi dalam tingkat yang belum terbayangkan; namun dengan nisbah keberhasilan yang belum memuaskan. Kegagalan di bidang TIK umumnya disebabkan oleh akses yang kurang memadai terhadap teknologi, pasar, komunitas, atau investasi. IEEE sebagai komunitas merasa tertantang untuk mengatasi masalah-masalah ini dengan menyusun koherensi pada tingkatan teknologi, infrastruktur, dan peluang bisnis. Tantangan lain adalah perlunya mengarahkan pengembangan teknologi untuk secara konsisten menumbuhkan harkat hidup manusia. Arahan inilah yang menjadi dasar untuk menyusun tema TENSYMP 2016: Smart Computing, Communications, and Informatics of the Future. Riset yang mengarah ke pengembangan platform dan aplikasi tetap ditujukan untuk mencerdaskan kehidupan manusia.

Direktur IEEE Region 10 Ramakrishna Kappagantu menyebutkan bahwa melalui TENSYMP 2016, IEEE Region 10 bermaksud untuk:

  • Mempersembahkan forum internasional yang prestisius untuk berinteraksi dalam bidang-bidang elektri, komputer, dan teknologi informasi, dalam bentu paper, pameran, paparan ilmiah, tutorial, dan aktivitas lainnya.
  • Menyebarkan pengetahuan dan pengalaman teknis kepada masyarakat di kawasan Asia-Pasifik.
  • Mendorong pengkajian dan interaksi teknologi dan aplikasinya dalam konteks sosial, politik, dan kemanusiaan secara lebih luas.
  • Memperkuat kemampuan interpersonal dan profesional serta semangat kepemimpinan dari volunteer di bidang-bidang teknologi dan rekayasa.

Konferensi ini menampilkan lima pembicara kunci:

  • Prof. Kukjin Chun: Microelectromechanical Systems Technology Development.
  • Prof. Benjamin Wah: Consistent Synchronization Of Action Order with Least Noticeable Delays Ini MultiPlayer Online Games
  • Prof. Rod van Meter: Analyzing Applications for Quantum Repeater Network
  • Prof. Soegijarjo Soegidjoko, Biomedical Engineering Advances for a Better Life in Developed & Developing Countries
  • Dr. Basuki Yusuf Iskandar

IEEE Tensymp 2016

The 2016 IEEE Region 10 Annual Symposium (TENSYMP 2016) has been carried out in Sanur Paradise Plaza, Bali Island, Indonesia, in 9–11 May 2016. TENSYMP is the second flagship conference belongs to the IEEE Region 10. But TENSYMP is relatively new: this event was only the fourth TENSYMP. The aim is to serve IEEE contribution to the development, progress and welfare of countries in the Asia-Pacific region by disseminating technological knowledge and experience.

The topics for TENSYMP 2016 were selected by considering the position of Asia Pacific area as de facto centre for the ICT research, development, and industry. Digital devices, services and applications proliferate in unprecedented growth; but only a small number will become success stories. The others, despite their idealistic technical plan, will succumb the poor access to technology, market, community, or investment. It is the duty of the IEEE Region 10 as a community to arrange a coherence among those technologies, infrastructures, and business opportunities, to accelerate our common growth toward a digital society. Other big challenges are to develop and deploy our technology in meaningful ways – in real applications to enhance the value of human life. This is the expectation to choose the topic of TENSYMP 2016: Smart Computing, Communications, and Informatics of the Future. While we carry out deeper researches on those smart services and platforms; we keep in mind that our works are to enhance the quality of life.

On the Opening Speech, IEEE Region 10 Director Ramakrishna Kappagantu mentioned that with TENSYMP, IEEE Region 10 aims:

  • To provide a prestigious international forum for specialist presentations and interactions in one or more areas of Electrical, Electronics, Computer and Information technology through papers, exhibitions, plenary talk, tutorials, and other activities;
  • To contribute to the development, progress and welfare of countries in the Asia-Pacific region by disseminating technological knowledge and experience.
  • To encourage the study and discussion of technology and technological applications in a broad social, political and human context;
  • To polish and boost the interpersonal and professional skills of volunteers with the guidance of leaders and the renowned personalities in the respective field of Engineering & Technology.

The conference presented five prominent keynote speakers:

  • Prof. Kukjin Chun: Microelectromechanical Systems Technology Development.
  • Prof. Benjamin Wah: Consistent Synchronization Of Action Order with Least Noticeable Delays Ini MultiPlayer Online Games
  • Prof. Rod van Meter: Analyzing Applications for Quantum Repeater Network
  • Prof. Soegijarjo Soegidjoko, Biomedical Engineering Advances for a Better Life in Developed & Developing Countries
  • Dr. Basuki Yusuf Iskandar
