SUMMARY:CSE Colloquium - Towards Safe and Resilient Large-scale Distributed Programming
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Philipp Haller\, KTH Royal Institute of Technology \nAbstract: \nDistributed programming is notoriously difficult. Not only are distributed systems concurrent\, they pose additional challenges including data consistency and fault tolerance. At the same time\, the share of software systems that are necessarily distributed systems is growing rapidly. As a result\, too many software developers are asked to become distributed systems experts. Thus\, tools and techniques for ensuring the correctness of distributed systems are urgently needed in order to leave this unsustainable trajectory. This talk presents research results towards the design and implementation of programming systems that support emerging applications and workloads; provide reliability and trust; and embrace simplicity and accessibility. Concretely\, the presented work focuses on two directions. \nThe first direction explores a distributed programming model that provides consistency while enabling high availability for workloads operating on join-semilattices without sacrificing partition tolerance. We propose a new consistency protocol\, called observable atomic consistency protocol (OACP)\, which leverages on-demand coordination to support both coordination-free operations as well as totally-ordered operations on replicated data types. We present a formal\, mechanized model of OACP in rewriting logic and verify key correctness properties using the model checking tool Maude. Furthermore\, we present the evaluation of a prototype implementation of OACP based on Akka\, a widely-used actor-based middleware. The second direction explores a programming system that aims to reconcile the scalability and fault tolerance of stream processing systems with the flexibility of the actor concurrency model. The programming system ensures a failure-transparency property\, effectively masking failures through transparent recovery. Our work is the first to formalize failure transparency using a small-step operational semantics\, and to provide proofs of failure transparency for stateful dataflow streaming and a fault-tolerant actor-based programming model. \nBio: \nPhilipp Haller is an Associate Professor in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm\, Sweden. His main research interests are in the design and implementation of programming languages\, type systems\, concurrency\, and distributed programming. He was part of the team that received the 2019 ACM SIGPLAN Programming Languages Software Award for the development of the Scala programming language. Prior to KTH\, he was an early employee at Akka (previously Lightbend\, Inc.)\, a start-up company developing and supporting Scala as well as frameworks for large-scale distributed programming. Prior to Akka\, he was a post-doctoral fellow at Stanford University\, USA\, and at EPFL\, Switzerland. In 2010 he received his PhD in computer science from EPFL\, including a nomination for the 2010 EPFL Doctorate Award. In 2006 he received his Dipl.-Inform. degree from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (previously University of Karlsruhe)\, Germany. \nHosted by: Professor Mohsen Lesani \nLocation: Engineering 2\, Room E2-180 (Refreshments such as fruit\, pastries\, coffee\, and tea will be provided.) \nZoom Option: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93445911992?pwd=YkJ2TQtF79h0PcNXbEcpZLbpK0coiY.1&jst=3

SUMMARY:A Mouthful of Archaeology: Oral Health Disparities During the Early Bronze Age in Anatolia
DESCRIPTION:Archaeology and Biological Anthropology Lunch Talk with Dr. Emily Smith — April 29th at 12 noon in Rm 261\, Social Sciences 1. \nAbout the Talk: The Early Bronze Age in Anatolia is recognized as a transformative period of increased social stratification\, urbanization\, and socioeconomic shifts. While substantial archaeological evidence traces these characteristics of the Early Bronze Age\, there remains a deficit in bioarchaeological evidence supporting this discussion. Emily’s research seeks to fill the gap in the biocultural evidence by investigating oral health. Her research demonstrates how dental anthropology is vital in understanding the relationships between diet\, social structure\, and complex cultural and economic changes during the Early Bronze Age in Anatolia. \n  \nAbout the Speaker: Emily Smith is the new Laboratory Operations and Facilities Manager for the Anthropology Department. She recently earned her PhD in Anthropology from the University of Nevada\, Reno. Her research interests focus on oral health disparities\, where the majority of her research has looked at health disparities during the rise of city-states in Anatolia during the Early Bronze Age. \n

SUMMARY:Spring Exhibitions at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences
DESCRIPTION:Visit the IAS\, UCSC’s premier art galleries\, for our spring exhibitions. On view April 10–August 16\, 2026 are three diverse and interdisciplinary shows: Libia Posada: Everything is Going Right\, the first US solo exhibition by the Colombia-based artist and medical doctor; Gina Athena Ulysse: A Redwoods Rasanblaj\, a site-specific and immersive exploration of the Haitian kreyol conception of rasanblaj; and Ronaldo V. Wilson: There Are No Words\, But Melodies\, a mixed-media exhibition emerging at the intersections of Black poetics\, performance\, and visual art. \nThe IAS Galleries are open Wednesday-Sunday\, 12 pm – 5 pm. Admission is free to the public. \nLibia Posada: Everything is Going Right\nLibia Posada’s first solo exhibition in the United States features installations\, sculptures\, and drawings meticulously constructed from surgical instruments\, gauze bandages\, crutches\, used books\, and domestic picture frames. The new and existing works in the exhibition powerfully stitch together the personal\, social\, and political disorders and afflictions that currently trouble the world\, from the wars that resonate across the globe to the violences of aging in US prisons.  \nGina Athena Ulysse: A Redwoods Rasanblaj: Origins & Disentanglements\nThe internationally-lauded work of humanities professor Gina Athena Ulysse is on view as a premier Faculty Spotlight Exhibition. The site-specific installation\, produced in community from things collected\, found\, purchased and donated\, centers on the Haitian concept of rasanblaj\, a form of assembly and collage that transcends the formal use of materials to draw together people\, spirits\, and ideas.  \nRonaldo V. Wilson: There Are No Words\, But Melodies\nCollage is both a material practice and a structural interrogation in the Faculty Spotlight Exhibition artworks by literature professor Ronaldo V. Wilson. In video\, painting\, and installation\, layers and folds conceal and reveal\, delving into the experience\, both bodily and emotive\, of living in times of violence.  \n

SUMMARY:Visualizing Abolition Screening Series: Beyond Access
DESCRIPTION:On view in the IAS Screening Room is a selection of short films curated by Visualizing Abolition Visiting Faculty Fellow Dr. Pooja Rangan. \nPrisons deny and censor the access of those trapped inside them—to information\, to intimacy\, to community\, to meaningful work\, to nourishment of all kinds\, and perhaps most cruelly\, to care. This program assembles a series of films\, including works by filmmakers incarcerated in California as well as others without that lived experience. Together\, these works confront the debilitating impacts of these restrictions and reveal how the disabling logic of the prison is extended to other institutional spaces (the hospital\, the university)\, turning access into a scarce commodity by enclosing what should be held in common. Questioning the carceral and state-sponsored productions of disability and accessibility\, the short films together reveal the courage of people working despite limitations to produce collective access for one another\, described simply and beautifully by disability justice activist Leah-Lakshmi Piepzna Samarasinha as “revolutionary love without charity.” \nThanh Tran\nDying in Prison\, 2022\nHD Video (color\, sound)\, 3 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nCarolyn Lazard\nPre-Existing Condition\, 2019\nHD video (color\, sound)\, 6 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist and Trautwein Herleth3 \nAnthony Alejandrez\nAnother Rainy Day\, 2023\nPhone video (color\, sound)\, 3 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nJordan Lord\nAfter…After… (Access)\, 2018\nHD Video (color\, sound)\, 16 minutes\nCourtesy of the artist \nRahsaan “New York” Thomas\nFriendly Signs\, 2023\nVideo (color\, sound) 21 minutes\nCourtesy of Tommy Wickerd\, Empowerment Ave & System Impact Media

SUMMARY:Muskism: A Guide for the Perplexed
DESCRIPTION:Please join us as Quinn Slobodian & Ben Tarnoff discuss their new book\, Muskism: A Guide for the Perplexed (April\, 2026). \n \nA Financial Times Most Anticipated Nonfiction Book of the Year • A Kirkus Most Anticipated Nonfiction Book of Spring 2026• A Literary Hub Most Anticipated Book of the Year\n\nA pyrotechnic examination of Elon Musk as a symptom and avatar of our postliberal age \nEveryone’s got an Elon take. He’s a messiah. A menace; a genius; a clown. The verdicts differ\, but they share one theme: they treat him as an individual. Muskism argues otherwise. Elon Musk isn’t a glitch in the system—he is the system. His worldview promises sovereignty through technology: plug in\, power up\, and become self-reliant. But the more you connect\, the more he owns you. \nIf Fordism defined the capitalism of the twentieth century\, Muskism may define the twenty-first. Fordism helped build the welfare state. Musk undoes it. He thrives on dependence while preaching freedom. His cars run on subsidies; his satellites run the battlefield; his social networks train the AI that trains us. Muskism sells itself as the future but entrenches age-old hierarchies. It offers autonomy for some and exclusion for others. It’s pro-natalist but anti-immigrant\, futurist but reactionary. It speaks of humanity but warns against empathy. Quinn Slobodian and Ben Tarnoff cut through the hype and the hate to reveal what Musk really represents: a new political economy\, where to be “free” means to serve a Technoking. Muskism isn’t about the man. It’s about the machine that made him—and the world he’s making next. \nQuinn Slobodian is professor of international history at Boston University\, and the author or editor of seven books translated into ten languages including\, Hayek’s Bastards: Race\, Gold\, IQ and the Capitalism of the Far Right\, Crack-Up Capitalism: Market Radicals and the Dream of a World without Democracy\, and Globalists: The End of Empire and the Birth of Neoliberalism. \nBen Tarnoff is a writer and technologist based in Massachusetts and is the author of Internet for the People and the co-author of Voices from the Valley: Tech Workers Talk About What They Do—And How They Do It. He is a frequent contributor to the New York Review of Books\, and has also written for the New York Times\, The New Yorker\, and the New Republic\, among other publications.
