This course introduces techniques that the student can use to construct simple models for analyzing and understanding the performance of systems that they are interested in. (1) To introduce students to analytical modeling of system performance. Computer systems are complex, making it hard to understand their behavior and predict their performance. Students will learn some mathematical techniques for modeling system performance, and exercise their modeling skill. (2) To broaden the student’s interest in Computer Science. Computer Science is increasingly multi-disciplinary; for example, data streams bring together issues in hardware, networking and databases. This course will give students broad exposure to analytical modeling in different areas of Computer Science.

5.Advanced Topics on Robot Sensing and Control 6.Practical examples of robot sensing and control through photos and video demonstrations. The objectives of this course are to let students who have had the basic background of the robot sensing and control issues, approaches with more in depth understanding of theories and practical applications in robot sensing

and control. The idea of this course is to convey the concept that usually sensing and control should not be

separated and they are interdependent in dealing with an intelligent systems, such as an intelligent robotics system.

Firstly, student will learn more advanced robot sensing and control issues in humanoid robot including definition of

walking, dynamics static gaiting issues, control algorithms and the need for robot sensors interact with different

control aspects. The second focus will be the study of advanced issues of sensor fusion and integration.

Synergistic use of multiple sensors by machines and systems enables greater intelligence to be incorporated into

their overall operation. Motivation for using multiple sensors can be considered as response to simple question:

if a single sensor can increase the capability of a system, would the use of more sensors increase it even further ?

In this course, theories of multisensory fusion and its applications to sensory controlled robotics systems which

involves mathematical and statistical issues including combining sensor uncertainty methods for sensor fusion

includes estimation methods, such as covariance Intersection (CI), Kalman Filtering; Classification methods,

such asSupport Vector Machine (SVM) etc. will be presented and discussed. The third focus will be the advanced

robot motionplanning and control issues. The fourth focus will be the advanced topics in interactive service robotics
by using various sensing and control algorithms.Finally, a variety of practical examples of robot sensing and control

will be presented through photos and video demonstrations. After taking this course, it is expected that students

will l get the state of the art knowledge about the advanced core robotics technologies especially in robot sensing

and control. College of Electrical Engineering & Computer Science Main Campus This course is suitable for senior and graduate students.

Over 3000 international investment agreements (IIA) currently operates through Bilateral investment treaties (BITs) and investment protection provisions of free trade agreements (FTAs). Investment agreements are concluded by the investor’s home country and the host country. Its aim is to protect the investor and investment made in the territory of the host country. By the nature of mixing public-private law, investment treaties usually have a wider implication for the domestic regulatory regime of host states. Notable examples include trade, tax, intellectual property, renewable energy, environment and public health policies. How to balance investor’ rights and the host state’s right to regulate in public mattes has thus become a topical issue in investment relations. On dispute settlement, foreign investor are given the direct rights to use international arbitration challenging the host state’s measures. The arbitral rules of the ICSID (International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes) and United Nations Commission International Trade Law Arbitration Rules (UNCITRAL) are the two rules which have been most commonly used. As practiced, the number of investor-State arbitrations has mushroomed as hundreds of millions of dollars have been awarded as compensation remedies. Investment arbitration usually affects a wider public interest of a host state and thus has invited hot debates within international economic community. Tentative topics to be discussed follow. (1) Overview of International Investment Law Proliferation in Asia (2) Definition on investors and investments (3) Non-discrimination treatment: National Treatment; Most Favoured Nation (4) Indirect expropriations and right to regulate (5) Fair and equitable treatment: the emerging proportionality principle? (6) Full protection and security/ umbrella clause (7) Cross-cutting Issues in Investment Law Asia Perspective on Sustainable Environment and Public Health (8) BIT dispute settlement in East Asia and the dispute settlement in the investment chapter of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) (9) Introduction to ICSID arbitral rules(I): ICSID Jurisdiction, applicable law and interim measure (10) Introduction to ICSID arbitral rules(II):Challenge and annulment procedures (11) Introduction to ICSID arbitral rules(II): Enforcement and sovereign immunity The course is designed to help students establish the basic capacity to deal with issues on foreign investment law. It will also help students have good basic knowledges of investment arbitration. College of Engineering Main Campus Class sessions will be conducted by lectures, students’ presentations and discussions. 2. Each student is required to pick up a topic and make presentation in class. The topic shall be approved by the instructor. 3. The Power-Point slides should be delivered to the instructor, teaching assistant and students via e-mail and ceiba three days prior to presentation. 4. Each student is required to write a term paper at the end of the semester. The topic of the term paper needs to be approved by the instructor. The 10-page full-paper should use blue book citation. 5. Attendance for all classes and active class participation is strongly encouraged. In no event, the participants should miss two classes without good reason. 6. The course evaluation will be based on class participation (including attendance and discussion) (40%), the presentation (30%) and the final term paper (30%).
