The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in a variety of research fields is speeding up multiple digital revolutions, from shifting paradigms in healthcare, precision medicine and wearable sensing, to public services and education offered to the masses around the world, to future cities made optimally efficient by autonomous driving. When a revolution happens, the consequences are not obvious straight away, and to date, there is no uniformly adapted framework to guide AI research to ensure a sustainable societal transition. To answer this need, here we analyze three key challenges to interdisciplinary AI research, and deliver three broad conclusions: 1) future development of AI should not only impact other scientific domains but should also take inspiration and benefit from other fields of science, 2) AI research must be accompanied by decision explainability, dataset bias transparency as well as development of evaluation methodologies and creation of regulatory agencies to ensure responsibility, and 3) AI education should receive more attention, efforts and innovation from the educational and scientific communities. Our analysis is of interest not only to AI practitioners but also to other researchers and the general public as it offers ways to guide the emerging collaborations and interactions toward the most fruitful outcomes.

With the continuous development of traditional media in China, talents in the media industry continue to emerge, and the continuous updating and upgrading of media accelerate the rapid integration of media carriers, making the birth of " Fusion Media”. With the rapid update and iteration of financial media, it can be widely disseminated and applied. While the traditional media industry is impacted by financial media, it also faces new challenges and opportunities. Therefore, in the rapid development of the media industry, traditional media needs to innovate the old communication mode and content. Broadcasting and hosting professionals as the link and bridge between the masses and the media, such changes also put forward more stringent requirements on the professional ability of broadcasting and hosting professionals, and the form and content of the work has become more diversified. Hence, in order to cope with the advent of the fusion media era, it is also important to improve one's professionalism and practical skills. How can these competencies be further enhanced to meet the needs of today's media industry and the public, and what are some examples of successful transformations in the media industry? To address these questions, this paper first analyses the changes in the broadcasting industry in the context of media convergence, and then further explores the competencies that broadcasting professionals need to possess in the era of "Fusion Media". Recommendations are also provided correspondingly in the last section of this paper as well.

Rich Spectrum

FPGA-based accelerators are increasingly popular across a broad range of applications, because they offer massive parallelism, high energy efficiency, and great flexibility for customizations. However, difficulties in programming and integrating FPGAs have hindered their widespread adoption. Since the mid 2000s, there has been extensive research and development toward making FPGAs accessible to software-inclined developers, besides hardware specialists. Many programming models and automated synthesis tools, such as high-level synthesis, have been proposed to tackle this grand challenge. In this survey, we describe the progression and future prospects of the ongoing journey in significantly improving the software programmability of FPGAs. We first provide a taxonomy of the essential techniques for building a high-performance FPGA accelerator, which requires customizations of the compute engines, memory hierarchy, and data representations. We then summarize a rich spectrum of work on programming abstractions and optimizing compilers that provide different trade-offs between performance and productivity. Finally, we highlight several additional challenges and opportunities that deserve extra attention by the community to bring FPGA-based computing to the masses.

With respect to structural consequences within a material, energetic electrons, above a threshold value of energy characteristic of a particular material, produce vacancy-interstial pairs (Frenkel pairs) by displacement of individual atoms, as illustrated for several materials in Table 1. Ion projectiles produce cascades of Frenkel pairs. Such displacement cascades result from high energy primary knock-on atoms which produce many secondary defects. These defects rearrange to form a variety of defect complexes on the time scale of tens of picoseconds following the primary displacement. A convenient measure of the extent of irradiation damage, both for electrons and ions, is the number of displacements per atom (dpa). 1 dpa means, on average, each atom in the irradiated region of material has been displaced once from its original lattice position. Displacement rate (dpa/s) is proportional to particle flux (cm-2s-1), the proportionality factor being the “displacement cross-section” σD (cm2). The cross-section σD depends mainly on the masses of target and projectile and on the kinetic energy of the projectile particle.
