DESCRIPTION:LECTURE 1) Title: The IEEE 802.11 standard and its constant evo
 lution to meet new demands The importance of technologies based on the IEE
 E 802.11 standard to our society cannot be overstated. For example\, Wi-Fi
 \, one of such technologies\, has been the leading wireless connectivity t
 echnology used in homes and businesses around the world for more than two 
 decades\, and it is estimated to carry about 60% of the world’s mobile t
 raffic today. As the use of wireless connectivity continues to increase an
 d evolve\, the IEEE 802.11 standard is constantly evolving to meet new dem
 ands\, such as improved performance in dense environments and consistent u
 ltra-low latency data transfer. In this keynote talk\, we explore current 
 work on future generations of the IEEE 802.11 standard\, with emphasis on 
 the main driving forces behind the standard evolution along with new featu
 res being considered. We will also discuss the IEEE 802.11 Working Group a
 nd efforts to add functionality to IEEE 802.11 technology by extending its
  use to positioning and sensing applications.\n\nLECTURE 2) Title: Introdu
 ction to Wi-Fi Sensing and the IEEE 802.11bf Standard Wi-Fi sensing is the
  use of Wi-Fi to enable everyday electronic devices to acquire information
  and become aware of their surroundings. Interest and research in the area
  has grown steadily over the past two decades\, and Wi-Fi sensing is now u
 sed in a wide range of applications\, including user presence detection\, 
 space occupancy analytics\, and home security systems. Due to the signific
 ant and growing market interest in the area\, a new IEEE 802.11 Task Group
  (IEEE 802.11bf) was recently formed to develop an amendment to the 802.11
  standard that will enhance its ability to support Wi-Fi sensing applicati
 ons. This talk will begin with an introduction to wireless sensing systems
  and to Wi-Fi sensing. We will then discuss the main definitions and featu
 res of the IEEE 802.11bf draft standard.\n\nSpeaker(s): Claudio da Silva\,

 nnectivity continues to increase and evolve\, the IEEE 802.11 standard is 
 constantly evolving to meet new demands\, such as improved performance in

  keynote talk\, we explore current work on future generations of the IEEE 
 802.11 standard\, with emphasis on the main driving forces behind the stan
 dard evolution along with new features being considered. We will also disc
