1st Keynote: Working with Safe, Deterministic and Secure Intelligence from Cloud to EdgeAbstract:
The Internet of Things (IoT) will be the largest revolution in the data economy. At Intel, we understand the exponential power of data, and we’re making it practical and economical to put it to work from the edge to the cloud. Intel® technologies purpose-built for IoT deliver optimized performance at every point, practical ways to use artificial intelligence, broad connectivity support, and a built-in foundation of functional safety, time determinism and security to help protect and make dependable your data and systems. By harnessing the massive flood of data generated by connected things—and using it to gain actionable insights—we’ll accelerate business transformation to a degree never seen before.
Managing services and infrastructure at the edge is a complex balancing act that has to meet much more demanding timing and dependability constraints and requires vastly more speed and precision than in a conventional cloud data center. Satisfying the competing objectives of stringent Quality of Service (QoS) and workload consolidation in this complex IoT environment requires new approaches and advancements. Virtualization alone does not deliver the full potential for this IoT transformation. E.g. for challenging industrial workloads an automatic and self-managing approach will be needed.

2nd Keynote: Assisted and Automated DrivingAbstract: Since the introduction of Park Distance Control and Adaptive Cruise Control in the Mid 2000s, PORSCHE follows a systematic strategy to adapt driver assistance and automated driving to their product lines. There is no contradiction to the philosophy of a sports car: customers that enjoy driving on their own in case of appropriate traffic conditions expect significant ease of driving in stressful, time-consuming situations like traffic jams, or heavily occupied parking spaces. Furthermore, new functionalities like the predictive Innodrive system enabling efficient cruise control based on sophisticated planning algorithms provides a perfect contribution to the PORSCHE Intelligent Performance strategy.
Although the common discussion focuses on the higher levels of automation from SAE Level 3 to Level 4, at least for the next decade Level 1 and 2 systems will play a significant role being the technological state-of-the-art for a majority of cars. Therefore, PORSCHE focuses on increasing the performance and functionality of Level1/2 driver assistance system in parallel to participating in development programs to enable Level3/4 automated driving. This offers the opportunity to systematically build the necessary competency both in the technological fields of sensing, sensor fusion, planning and control as well as the necessary processes, methods and tools that are mandatory to develop, approve and release higher level automated systems. Systems Engineering has to be combined with approaches to process very large amounts of data whereas traditional random road based testing has to be replaced by a combination of virtual and systematic real world testing. Last but not least, a new end-to-end EE architecture is necessary to provide the seamless integration of the vehicle into an IT based service infrastructure.

Keynote: Leonardo da Vinci, Humanism and Engineering between Florence and MilanAbstract: The machines and mechanical elements drawn by Leonardo through the course of his itinerary as engineer and technologist belong to the most disparate fields, highlighting his curiosity about the technological culture of his times. Just as for the other sectors of his activity, the first machines depicted by Leonardo follow in the tradition of the Renaissance Florentine workshop and are characterized by a practical, empirical approach aimed at resolution of problems progressively as they arose. During his first Milanese period (1482-1499), Leonardo was experimenting with, and refining ever more effective graphical systems of representation, which he would proceed in applying also to other sectors, like anatomy, architecture, and military engineering. Sections, prospect views, and transparent views were used to decompose machines into their constituent elements, finding solutions for automating and rendering more efficient the existing traditional mechanisms, or for conceiving completely new mechanisms. Leonardo moved, particularly in the 1490s, from documentation of practical problems to a more theoretical analysis of the principles regulating the functioning of machines, from the study of mechanical elements to their inter-relation. The studies on friction and on motion in general are to be inserted into this perspective, which led him to the idea of compiling a treatise on mechanics, based on the analysis of mechanisms and gears, the so-called “elementi macchinali”.

Keynote: Heterogeneous, High Scale Computing in the Era of Intelligent, Cloud-Connected Devices (Session 7.0 - 13:50–14:20)Abstract: Rapid advances in connected devices, coupled with machine learning and “data lake” methods of advanced analytics, have led to an explosion in demand for non-traditional, highly scalable computing and storage platforms. This increasing demand is being seen in the public cloud as well as in cloud-connected IoT edge devices. AI/ML is at the heart of many the newest, most advanced analytics and IoT applications, ranging from robotics and autonomous vehicles, to cloud-connected products such as Alexa, to smart factories and consumer-facing services in the financial and healthcare sectors. In support of these important workloads, alternative methods of computing are being deployed in the cloud and at the edge. These alternative, heterogeneous computing methods include CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and other emerging acceleration technologies. This talk presents examples of such use-cases within Amazon, as well examples of how Amazon customers increasingly rely on AI/ML, accelerated using alternative computing methods and coupled with smart, cloud-connected devices to create next-generation intelligent products. The talk will conclude with examples of how cloud-based semiconductor design is being enhanced using these same methods.

Keynote: A Fundamental Look at Models and Intelligence (Session 11.0 - 13:20–13:50)Abstract: Models are central to building confidence in complex software systems. Type systems, interface theories, formal semantics, concurrent models of computation, component models, and ontologies all augment classical software engineering techniques such as object-oriented design to catch errors and to make software more modular and composable. Every model lives within a modeling framework, ideally giving semantics to the model, and many modeling frameworks have been developed that enable rigorous analysis and proof of properties. But every such modeling framework is an imperfect mirror of reality. A computer system operating in the physical world may or may not accurately reflect behaviors predicted by a model, and the model may not reflect behaviors that are critical to correct operation of the software. Software in a cyber-physical system, for example, has timing properties that are rarely represented in formal models. As artificial intelligence gets more widely used, the problem gets worse, with predictability and explainability seemingly evaporating. In this talk, I will examine the limitations in the use of models. I will show that two very different classes of models are used in practice, classes that I call "scientific models" and "engineering models." These two classes have complementary properties, and many misuses of models stem from confusion about which class is being used. Scientific models of intelligent systems are very different from engineering models.

The DATE Party traditionally states one of the highlights of the DATE week. As one of the main networking opportunities during the DATE week, it is a perfect occasion to meet friends and colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere while enjoying local amenities. It is scheduled on Wednesday, March 27, 2019, from 19:30 to 23:00.
This year, it will take place at Palazzo Borghese, which is located in the heart of Firenze and is a beautiful example of neoclassic architecture. It belonged to Prince Camillo Borghese, who took temporary residence here after his marriage to Pauline Bonaparte (sister of Napoleon). The rich Prince renovated the building on the occasion of the wedding between Grand Duke Ferdinand III and Princess Maria Ferdinanda of Saxony in May 1821, commending the work to the young architect Gaetano Baccani. The inauguration party was on the 31st January 1822, and the Florentine nobles were really surprised at such magnificent work: marbles, paintings, and antique furniture gave notoriety to Baccani and the people’s affection to the Prince because, with his request, he had given jobs to many different artisans.
Nowadays Palazzo Borghese, still maintaining the ancient splendor and pomp, hosts in its rooms events such as meetings, conferences, weddings, gala dinner and all kind of events linked with major appointments in town.
Please kindly note that it is not a seated dinner.
All delegates, exhibitors and their guests are invited to attend the party. Please note that entrance is only possible with a valid party ticket. Each full conference registration includes a ticket for the DATE Party (which needs to be booked during the online registration process though). Additional tickets can be purchased on-site at the registration desk (subject to availability of tickets). Price for extra ticket: 70 € per person.
