四書 五經 (Four Books and Five Classics) and Information Engineering -- Are they related?

Abstract (Invited Talk)

It is always fascinating to find correlation between two seemly uncorrelated things, and to spur new thoughts out of it. In this talk, I will share my thoughts on how I can appreciate more about the Chinese classics through the eyes of an Information Engineer. Two purposes: to promote interdisciplinary study (yes, I think IE students shall attend more non-IE seminars) and to find new definitions about what IE is (a question that many students have). Due to the nature of the content, more than half of the talk will be presented in Mandarin.
