TYPE: NICTA WHEN: 4:00 PM - 03 Dec 09 VENUE: Brown Theatre Electrical Electronic Engineering	NICTA-Big Picture Seminar - "http://www.nicta.com.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0012/21540/Alex_Zelinsky_Flyer.pdf" by: Dr Alex Zelinsky of Group Executive, Information Sciences
ABSTRACT: The role of CSIRO is to address Australian national challenges in areas such as water, health, energy, environment, and sustainable industries such as agriculture, mining and manufacturing. CSIRO has adopted an innovation strategy for these challenges by researching and developing new ICT methods, technologies and systems.
SPEAKER BIOGRAPHY: Dr Alex Zelinsky is a recognised leader in Australian Information and Communication Technologies who has successfully delivered R&D results of significant commercial value and global impact. Dr Zelinsky is Group Executive, Information Sciences and Director, CSIRO Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) Centre. He is a member of the CSIRO Executive Team. Under Dr Zelinskys leadership CSIRO is developing world class technology platforms for sensor & sensor networks and computational & simulation science. These platforms are being applied to underpin cross-disciplinary research across the CSIRO particularly in energy, health, agriculture, manufacturing and environment applications. Before joining CSIRO in July 2004 Dr Zelinsky was CEO and co-founder of Seeing Machines, a high-technology company dedicated to developing state of the art computer vision systems. Prior to founding Seeing Machines Dr Zelinsky was Professor of Systems Engineering at the Australian National University. Dr Zelinsky is internationally recognised for his research in robotics and computer vision, particularly in real-time computer vision systems for human-machine interfaces. He has served on the editorial boards of the leading journals and magazines in his field, including the program committees of international conferences. Dr Zelinsky's contributions to science have been recognised by numerous awards in Australia and internationally. Dr Zelinsky has been elected Fellow of the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering, Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (FIEEE), Fellow of the Institution of Engineers Australia (FIEAust), and Vice President of IEEE Robotics and Automation Society - Industrial Activities (RAS-IAB)
