“The perfect couple” for a green future

Professor Nguyen Nhat Tien presents the report

On November 11, the University of Science – VNU-HCM organized the 14th scientific conference with the theme “Science and technology towards a green and smart future”.

At the conference, Prof. Dr. Nguyen Nhat Tien, Department of Computer Science, University of Texas (USA), presented the report “AI4SE: The birth of a new field at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI), software engineering and security”. The author said that in recent years, AI and machine learning (ML) have emerged as transformative forces across many industries. Computer vision can be considered a part of AI/ML for images and videos , while natural language processing (NLP) is AI/ML for natural language texts. AI for software engineering (AI4SE) is an emerging research field, focusing on AI/ML for various software development tasks and products.

Professor, Dr. Nguyen Nhat Tien also discusses how the latest advances in AI and ML have the potential to revolutionize core software engineering practices. These breakthroughs promise to improve developer productivity, reduce human error, and accelerate the software development lifecycle.

With the theme “Design and synthesis of MOF materials for green catalysis and CO ₂ adsorption/conversion”, Associate Professor, Dr. Doan Le Hoang Tan, Inomar Center, VNU-HCM, presented the design and synthesis of advanced metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), tailored for applications in green catalysis and CO ₂ adsorption/conversion. MOFs are an emerging class of porous materials, known for their high surface area, tunable pore structure and chemical flexibility. By utilizing metal nodes and organic linkers, the research team enhanced the catalytic efficiency and CO ₂ adsorption capacity of MOFs.

Initial results show that MOFs are very effective in catalyzing important organic transformations with minimal waste. In addition, studies of the _CO2 absorption and conversion capabilities of these materials under various pressure and temperature conditions show promising results for industrial carbon capture and utilization.

The 14th scientific conference focuses on topics in many fields of natural sciences and technology such as: Mathematics - informatics, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, environmental science, materials science, oceanography, information technology, biotechnology, environmental technology, electronics - telecommunications, nuclear physics and medicine. This year, the conference has added the Subcommittee onEducational Technology and Integrated Science.
