「港康碼」不會泄私隱 憂慮出於誤解

政府推出「港康碼」為免隔離通關作預備,返內地的市民將可以自願地選擇使用「港康碼」,政府將會把用家過去三十一天的「安心出行」記錄上載至系統,讓「港康碼」讀取。簡略而言,若持碼者被證實或懷疑確診,以及曾去過出現確診或疑似確診個案的地方,該「碼」便會從正常狀態的綠色,轉為紅色或黃色。這做法與內地「健康碼」相似。

The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) is ranked No. 10 worldwide and once again ranked No. 1 in Hong Kong in Computer Science in the recently released Best Global Universities Rankings by U.S. News & World Report’s 2022.
 
The Best Global Universities Ranking by U.S. News & World Report covers a total of 43 subject rankings and evaluates nearly 1,750 universities across more than 90 countries using over 10 performance indicators. The performance indicators include number of publications, total number of citations, global and regional research reputation, and international collaboration. Across all the ranking indicators and weights, CUHK is listed No.10 globally and No.1 in Hong Kong in Computer Science with an outstanding subject score of 85.8, maintaining its position among the top universities for Computer Science in the latest ranking report.
 
“We are delighted to be ranked No. 10 globally this year and once again No. 1 in Hong Kong in Computer Science by the Best Global Universities Rankings by U.S. News & World Report,” said Professor Martin D. F. Wong, Dean of the Faculty of Engineering at CUHK. “This reaffirms CUHK’s position as one of the global leaders in computer science research and education. It is essential as computer science is the main driving force behind today’s 4th industrial revolution and digital economy. This recognition further motivates us to keep striving for excellence.”
 
With thirty years of history, the Faculty has built up its reputation for excellence in education and research. Many faculty members are among the best in their fields and are internationally recognised including Distinguished Professor-at-large Andrew Chi-Chih Yao, the recipient of the ACM A.M. Turing Award and Kyoto Prize in Advanced Technology.
 
Two unicorn companies specialising in artificial intelligence, SenseTime and SmartMore have their origins at CUHK further demonstrating the University’s excellence in fostering the computer science talents essential for creating lasting impact in the 21st century economy.

Professor Lei Ye, an associate professor at the School of Optics and Electronic Information and the Wuhan National Laboratory for Optoelectronics in Huazhong University of Science and Technology, has been recently selected as one of the 2021 Top 10 Young Science and Technology Figures in China.  He received his Ph.D. degree in electronic engineering from CUHK in 2014, followed by working as a postdoctoral fellow at CUHK until 2016.
 
Professor Ye focuses his research on the applications of 2D material’s versatility and its integration with functional substrates by using new modulation mechanism, new functional design and new integration framework. To improve system functional integration rather than spatial integration density, he developed the new semiconductor optoelectronic information devices and their on-chip integration to promote the development of silicon-based integration system in the post-Moore era.  His latest work was published in Science, one of the world respected scientific journals, titled “2D Materials-based Homogeneous Transistor-Memory Architecture for Neuromorphic Hardware (Science, DOI: 10.1126/science.abg3161)”, inspiring the future disruptive sensor-storage-computing integrated brain-like intelligence and revolutionary non-von Neumann computing system.
 
Professor Ye remarked, “It is my deepest honor to receive this award. I would like to thank the China Association for Science and Technology and the general public for their recognitions of my research achievements. I am grateful to be recognized for my efforts, even while I am also humbled and further motivated to bring advancements in China's science and technology developments.” He added, “As an alumnus of CUHK, I hope we all can make a breakthrough in science and technological innovations, which will impact and shape the future of the world.” 
 
About the Top 10 Young Science and Technology Figures in China
The Top 10 Young Science and Technology Figures in China was established in 2015, aiming to exhort the outstanding young scholars to strive for research excellence.  In 2021, 52 young scholars were selected as the award recipients in recognitions of their research and development achievements across different fields of science and technology in China.
