The lecture commenced with a warm welcome address by Prof. CHEN Qingyan, Director of PAIR, followed by a brief speaker introduction by Prof. WANG Zuankai, Associate Vice President (Research and Innovation) of PolyU. In his presentation, Prof. Yang highlighted that urgent need for tissue/organ biomanufacturing owing to the shortage of donation for organ transplantation. He pointed out some challenges in the in vitro manufacturing of tissues/organs, particularly in relation to accurate design, precise fabrication, and functional induction, which underscore the imperative need for new methods for tissue/organ manufacturing. Next, Prof. Yang outlined the development roadmap of biomanufacturing and shared specific examples demonstrating the research progress in 3D bioprinting. In concluding his presentation, Prof. Yang shared his insights on the future direction for biomanufacturing, as well as some significant accomplishments by him and his team at Zhejiang University in the field.
A question-and-answer session moderated by Prof. Wang was followed. Both the online and on-site audience had a fruitful discussion with Prof. Yang.

撰寫學術論文是大學生必要的經歷。中國語文教學中心是次建構「中文論文寫作教學網站」,旨在在已有的自學教材上,進一步分享撰寫中文論文的心得與要項。有別於一般論文教學網站,本網站總結了中心教員多年來評改學生習作的經驗,並以此為例,分享撰寫論文各個部份、各種細節的竅門與注意事項,期望學生省察論文寫作的過程,並思考其中意義。

粵語,又稱「廣東話」,是香港最常用的語言。來自世界各地的學生可透過學習粵語,認識生活中常用的粵語詞句,應付日常溝通需要,從中更好地了解香港,融入香港。為此,我們開發了一個量身定制的在線粵語學習平台──翻轉粵語教室,按大學課程所學,制作相關的多媒體自習材料,讓學生可於上課前,利用網絡、智能手機等學習工具預習各單元的學習內容,然後回校再進行互動的粵語學習,提升學習成效。

香港人講「懶音」的情況愈來愈普遍,如「女仔」說成「呂仔」(n-、l-不分),「過」、「個」不分(gw-、g-不分),「講解」說成「趕解」(-ng、-n不分),「襪」、「默」不分(-t、-k不分)等等。
為了加強學生對粵語的敏感度,協助學生說出流利的粵語,提升整體的表達能力,我們申請了香港理工大學「教學發展及語文培訓補助金」(Teaching Development and Language Enhancement Grant for Language Enhancement Activities, LEG16-19/SS/CBS9),開展「『粵語懶音測試及糾正』網站」計劃。此計劃的目的是協助學生以標準的粵語作日常的交際溝通,減少懶音,以恰當、得體的粵語與外界接觸,完成傳意任務。

由於漢字數量多、結構複雜,香港學生寫錯別字的情況甚為普遍。進入大學後,學生主要使用電腦輸入文字,手寫中文的機會更大為減少,導致錯別字的問題愈見嚴重。多年來,不少學者已就此問題進行各項研究,而坊間的相關參考專書更是汗牛充楝,不可勝數。然而,上述所論多從傳統的形音義角度出發,較少從文體、語境方面加以深入討論。
有見及此,我們去年申請了香港理工大學「教學發展及語文培訓補助金」(Teaching Development and Language Enhancement Grant for Language Enhancement Activities, LEG16-19/SS/CBS10),開展「『專業文體的錯別字糾正』網站」計劃,旨在探討於特定場合或行業語境下之實用文類的錯別字問題,藉以協助學生準確書寫各類職場文書,以恰當、得體的書面語言與外界接觸,完成傳意任務。

PAIR distinguished lecture series: an overview of high performance computing and future requirements
In this talk, we examine how high performance computing has changed over the last ten years and look toward the future in terms of trends. These changes have had and will continue to impact our numerical scientific software significantly. A new generation of software libraries and algorithms are needed for the effective and reliable use of (wide area) dynamic, distributed, and parallel environments. Some of the software and algorithm challenges have already been encountered, such as the management of communication and memory hierarchies through a combination of compile-time and run-time techniques, but the increased scale of computation, depth of memory hierarchies, range of latencies, and increased run-time environment variability will make these problems much harder.

We have witnessed a rapid expansion of the global Chinese medicines market in recent years. Herb-based products are becoming an integral part of health management not only in the East, but also in the Western world. Notwithstanding the booming of herbal markets, there are challenging issues and concerns from the medical/healthcare professionals, the nutritional/pharmaceutical communities, regulatory agencies, as well as the general public. In this presentation, a closer look will be taken at the scientific challenges of the quality, safety, and effectiveness of herbal products. While some of these difficulties are unlikely to be overcome within a short period of time, there are wide-open opportunities for international collaborative research to help meet the demands for high-quality Chinese medicine products.
