SUMMARY:Pavel Laskov: Can We Trust AI?
DESCRIPTION:Title:Can We Trust AI? \nThursday\, 21.07.2022\, 14:00–15:30 CEST \nHybrid Event \nSpeaker:Prof. Dr. Pavel Laskov (Hilti Chair for Data and Application Security) \nShort bio:Pavel Laskov is Full Professor at the University of Liechtenstein and head of the Hilti Chair of Data and Application Security. He received PhD in computer science at the University of Delaware in 2001 and held research and teaching positions at the Fraunhofer Institute FIRST\, University of Tuebingen and Huawei European Research Center. His research is focused on the development of techniques for detection and mitigation of security incidents\, especially using custom-built AI techniques. As one of the pioneers of research on AI security\, Pavel Laskov co-designed the first proof-of-concept attacks against mainstream AI algorithms such as neural networks and Support Vector Machines. \nAbstract:“Data is the new oil”. This succinct metaphor fuels an intense scholarly debate about the genuine value of data in modern economy and society. Tremendous recent progress in AI methods and applications of brought up new products\, services and capabilities that would have appeared science fiction even a decade ago. As AI is increasingly deployed for security- and safety-critical applications\, robustness of learning algorithms to unexpected data perturbations\, commonly knowns as “adversarial examples”\, becomes a crucial property. In this presentation\, I will present the general idea of data-driven attacks against AI and discuss various existing threat models. As an example of a future security-critical application\, I will elucidate the role of AI in 5G mobile network infrastructures and present a new threat model recently developed for this use case. \nOnline:Please contact events [at] sustainablecomputing.eu for a link. \nOn campus:WU Wien\, D2.2.094https://campus.wu.ac.at/?campus=1&q=D2.2.094 \nMore info (requesting a link to the online call): events [at] sustainablecomputing.eu \nSustainable Computing Lecture SeriesChairs: Soheil Human\, Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU Wien) Arianna Rossi\, SnT\, University of LuxembourgCristiana Santos\, Utrecht UniversityMartin Degeling\, Ruhr-University Bochum (RUB)

SUMMARY:Jaap-Henk Hoepman: Privacy Is Hard And Seven Other Myths
DESCRIPTION:Title: Privacy Is Hard And Seven Other Myths \nSpeaker: Prof. Dr. Jaap-Henk HoepmanRadboud University\, Karlstad University\, and University of Groningen \nWe invite our colleagues who are in Vienna to participate in the talk on WU Wien’s campus. If you like to join the lecture online\, please contact events [at] sustainablecomputing.eu for a link. \nDate/Time: Monday\, January 9th\, from 10:30 — 12:00 \nLocation:WU’s Executive Academy EA.6.026 AuditoriumMap: https://campus.wu.ac.at/?campus=1&q=EA.6.026Address: EA.6.026 AuditoriumWU Executive Academy\, 6th floorVienna University of Economics and Business (WU Wien)Welthandelsplatz 1\, 1020 Vienna\, Austria \nAbstract:In this talk Jaap-Henk Hoepman will discuss some of the mythssurrounding privacy (like “I have nothing to hide” and “We are notcollecting personal data” or “You have zero privacy anyway. Get overit.”). All to show that technological developments have had a tremendousimpact on our privacy\, but also can be used to protect our privacy. Hewill talk about the legal protection of privacy through the General DataProtection Regulation (GDPR)\, and discuss how relying on purely legalmeasures is not enough. The systems themselves should be designed in aprivacy friendly manner\, through privacy by design. He will explain theprivacy by design philosophy\, and make it concrete by describing eightprivacy design strategies. \nBio:Jaap-Henk Hoepman is an associate professor in IT Law at the Faculty of Law of the University of Groningen\, an associate professor at the Dept. of Computer Science of Radboud University\, and a guest guest professor in PRISEC – Privacy And Security at the Karlstad University. He studied computer science at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen and obtained his PhD at the University of Amsterdam based on work done at the Centre for Mathematics and Computer Science (CWI). His research interests focus on privacy by design and privacy-friendly protocols for identity management and the Internet of Things. \nOnnline:Please contact events [at] sustainablecomputing.eu for a link. \nOn campus:WU Wien\, D2.2.094https://campus.wu.ac.at/?campus=1&q=D2.2.094 \nMore info (requesting a link to the online call): events [at] sustainablecomputing.eu \nSustainable Computing Lecture SeriesChairs: Soheil Human\, Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU Wien) Arianna Rossi\, SnT\, University of LuxembourgCristiana Santos\, Utrecht UniversityMartin Degeling\, Stiftung Neue Verantwortung

SUMMARY:Sarah Spiekermann and Niina Zuber: Value-based Engineering and Ethical Agile Software Development
DESCRIPTION:This is a hybrid event that will include two talks: \nTalk 1 by Niina Zuber (Bavarian Institute for Digital Transformation) [15:00 – 15:45]Title: Ethics in Agile Software Development \nAbstract – Recent advances in the development and application of software systems are triggering a wide-ranging ethical discourse. Among the much discussed topics are bias\, data security\, privacy\, and the low explainability of algorithms. However\, ethical concerns must also be considered in the context of software development in general. Enriching the software development process with ethical deliberation promises to be beneficial and purposeful. \nThe ethical Deliberation proves thereby as triad: \n1. as an identification of values\, norms and rules\, which is systematically carried out in a disclosive ethics.2. as a process of consideration that leads to a justified prioritization.3. as an implementation of values\, norms and rules in technical settings. \nEthical deliberation will assist developers to systematically address ethical issues related to specific IT concerns. The implementation of ethical deliberation in agile development practice seems particularly constructive\, as agile processes are a widespread standard in software development and provide a favorable basis for ethical deliberation in the development process due to the empowerment of the individual through flat hierarchies or functioning team structures. \nBio:Dr. Niina Zuber is a scientific officer in the research department at bidt. The ethicist was a research consultant at Cognostics AG (start-up in the field of software development). She focuses on the topics of application-oriented rationality theory\, ethical software design\, and normative conceptualization of platforms for digital citizen participation. Before joining bidt\, she worked for many years at LMU Munich and at the Center for Digitalization Bavaria (ZD.B). \nTalk 2 by Sarah Spiekermann (WU Wien) [15:45 – 16:30]Title: Value-based Engineering (VBE) with IEEE 7000: The New Ethical Model Process for Value-based System Design \nAbstract – This talk is going to give the audience an overview of the new ISO/IEEE 24 748-7000 standard\, which is the world’s first standardized approach to build ‘ethical machines’. The talk will summarize the 10 principles of VBE and the 3 phases of system development necessary to build a new IT system in a transparent way\, informed by moral philosophy\, discourse ethics and risk logic. For more information on Value-bade Engineering\, see here: https://www.wu.ac.at/value-based-engineering/ \nBio:Since 2009 Sarah Spiekermann is chairing the Institute for Information Systems & Society at Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU Vienna). She is a well-regarded scientist\, author\, speaker and advisor on digital ethics. She published several books\, including “Value-based Engineering – A guide to building ethical technology for humanity” (DeGruyter\, 2023)\, “Digital Ethics – A Value System for the 21st Century” (Droemer\, 2019) and “Ethical IT Innovation: A Value-based System Design Approach” (Taylor & Francis\, 2015)\, as well as over 100 articles in leading academic journals such as “Communications of the ACM”\, JIT\, “IEEE Transactions” or “Science\, Technology and Values”. In 2016 Sarah co-founded the “Sustainable Computing Lab”. In the same year she also started vice-chairing IEEE’s “P7000” project\, leading the development of the first model process for ethical system design (or what is called “VBE – Value-based Engineering”) published in 2021 (also referenced as ISO/IEC/IEEE 24 748-7000). \nCollective discussions and networking [16:30 – 17:00] \nLocation: WU Wien\, TC.5.01 Auditorium\, Welthandelsplatz 1\, 1020 Wien \n[You can also participate online via Zoom – contact “events [@] sustainablecomputing.eu” for the link] \nMap: https://campus.wu.ac.at/?campus=1&q=TC.5.01
