Bettenhausen, <em> Technology Field Leader, Automation and Control Technology, Siemens Corporate Technology <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Monday, October 6 at 8:30 am<\/p>\n<h3>Abstract<\/h3>\n<p>The Manufacturing of the Future must change: The objective is to achieve a highly flexible, individualized, efficient and resource-friendly production at a cost position similar to today\u2019s mass production. The vision of tomorrow\u2019s manufacturing, already declared to become the \u201cFourth Industrial Revolution\u201d is as follows: products organize and find their way independently through the production process. In smart factories, smart machines, smart materials and smart products communicate with each other, alternately driving production, being interconnected and traceable at all times within an &#8220;Internet of things&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. government is inching closer making this Fourth Industrial Revolution reality. It understands the importance of developing innovative manufacturing strategies and plans to provide up to $1 billion in funding for the establishment of a national network of research institutes and businesses. Public authorities are responsible for making ubiquitous broadband networks available, and industry needs to put data standardization and transmission protocol systems into place in a timely manner. In Germany, the corresponding initiative is called \u201cIndustrie 4.0\u201d and a joint approach of businesses, academia and research institutes supported by government agencies to further strengthen the power of German engineering and production. This keynote will provide a comprehensive summary of the German initiative and a first comparison to the activities in the U.S.<\/p>\n<h3>Bio<\/h3>\n<p>Kurt D. Bettenhausen is the Automation and Control Technology Field Leader (AUC TF) for Siemens Corporate Technology. Headquartered in Siemens Corporate Technology\u2019s Princeton, New Jersey office in the USA, the AUC TF is one of 12 technology fields within Siemens Corporate Technology chartered with developing technologies with a broad impact for Siemens divisions worldwide. Based on deep experience in signal processing, robotics, lifecycle engineering, data analytics and mathematics, the AUC team provides methods and software modules to simulate, optimize, operate and control systems and processes. Before joining Corporate Technology, Dr. Bettenhausen headed up the Engineering and Consulting Business of Siemens\u2019 Industrial Automation Division based in Frankfurt, Germany. He began his career in the corporate research and technology department of Hoechst. Later, he held senior positions in marketing, sales and product management at Axiva. Dr. Bettenhausen attained a master\u2019s degree and a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the University of Darmstadt and is a member of the advisory board at the University of California-Berkeley\u2019s College of Engineering.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-815 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/iot-conference.org\/iot2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2018\/12\/DavidClark.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"107\" height=\"157\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Not Making the Same Mistakes Again<\/h3>\n<p>David Clark, <em>Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, MIT<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Tuesday , October\u00a07 at 8:00 am<\/p>\n<h2>Abstract<\/h2>\n<p>The Internet has lived through several phase changes in computing: from large time-shared mainframes to personal computers to mobile devices. The next phases are pretty clear today: they include IoT, networked vehicles, and implanted devices. Having lived through all of these, I see a painful tendency to repeat the same assumptions at each phase change. First, Internet protocols are (not suitable\/too complex\/etc.). Second, we can deal with network management later. Third, we cannot afford to think about details like security at first. For any of these future phases, any or all of these assumptions might be true, but past history would suggest otherwise. With respect to security, for example, we now have both cars and pacemakers that can be remotely hacked to induce death or bodily harm.<\/p>\n<h2>Bio<\/h2>\n<p>David Clark is a Senior Research Scientist at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, where he has worked since receiving his Ph.D. there in 1973. Since the mid 70s, Dr. Clark has been leading the development of the Internet; from 1981-1989 he acted as Chief Protocol Architect in this development, and chaired the Internet Activities Board. His current research looks at re-definition of the architectural underpinnings of the Internet, and the relation of technology and architecture to economic, societal and policy considerations. He is helping the U.S. National Science foundation organize their Future Internet Design program. He is past chairman of the Computer Science and Telecommunications Board of the National Academies, and has contributed to a number of studies on the societal and policy impact of computer communications. He is co-director of the MIT Communications Futures Program, a project for industry collaboration and coordination along the communications value chain.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-827 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/iot-conference.org\/iot2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2018\/12\/sriram_small-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>Smart Networked Systems and Societies: Towards Smart Healthcare<\/h2>\n<p>Dr. Ram D. Sriram, <em> Chief, Software and Systems Division, Information Technology Laboratory, NIST \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Wednesday, October 8 at 8:00 am<\/p>\n<h2>Abstract<\/h2>\n<p>We are witnessing a new revolution in computing and communication. The Internet, which has spanned several networks in a wide variety of domains, is having a significant impact on every aspect of our lives. The next generation of networks will utilize a wide variety of resources with significant sensing capabilities. Such networks will extend beyond physically linked computers to include multimodal-information from biological, cognitive, semantic, and social networks. This paradigm shift will involve symbiotic networks of people (social networks), smart devices, and smart phones or mobile personal computing and communication devices that will form net-centric societies or cyber-physical social systems. These devices \u2013 and the network &#8212; will be constantly sensing, monitoring, and interpreting the environment; this is sometimes referred to as the Internet of Things (IOT). The symbiosis of IOT and social networks will have significant implications for both the market for advanced computing and communication infrastructure and the future markets \u2013 for nearly 4.5 billion people &#8212; that net-centric societies will create. In this talk I will discuss a future vision for healthcare, which will involve smart phones, smart devices, and social networks, and research challenges associated with the emergence of such a smart networked society.<\/p>\n<p>This talk is dedicated to the memory of my nephew, Sirish Bhumi.<\/p>\n<h2>Bio<\/h2>\n<p>Ram D.

He was a Member of the Auto ID Center at MIT and Research Scientist in the Engineering Systems Division at the School of Engineering, MIT. He has lectured worldwide on technology innovation and offered courses for executive education at MIT and several other institutions in Europe and Asia. He has authored papers and articles related to evolution of the industrial internet, intelligent software agents, framework for predictive analytics, operations and supply chain management, sensors in healthcare systems and energy for a sustainable global economy. He has also worked as an independent consultant and advisor for a variety of major corporations and governments, including the US Department of Defense (DoD), United Nations (UNDP), the World Customs Organization (WCO) and the President\u2019s Science and Technology Advisory Group (PSTAG) for the President of Taiwan, Government of Taiwan.
