Organised by the Cromar Future Group in conjunction with the University, a series of talks through 2016/2017 held in the MacRobert Hall, Tarland
The “Internet of Things” promises to transform every aspect of our lives by connecting our cars, homes and even our bodies to the Internet. But what does this mean for our privacy, and how will we manage these devices and the data they produce? Professor Pete Edwards leads the Trusted Things & Communities project investigating how to provide novel solutions to increase trust in the Internet of Things.
Prof. Edwards is the Chair in Computing Science in the School of Natural and Computing Science. The Trusted Things & Communities project is funded by the UK’s Engineering & Physical Sciences Research Council.
Talks are open to anyone who would like to attend and the speakers aim to make them accessible to all, whether or not you have any background in science. We follow the relaxed Café Scientifique format : Introduction, talk (up to 45 mins), short break, Q&A session.
£4 entry to talks for adults, but age under 18 get in free. Children must be accompanied by an adult. All events are in the MacRobert Hall, Tarland and start at 7.30 pm unless a holiday workshop or otherwise indicated.
Putting the Café into our Café Scientifique talks are Caroldson’s barristas – so come early and enjoy their excellent coffee and cakes.
