System Integration and Virtual Validation
The Next Big Thing: Software-Defined Vehicle Development
Software becomes a central role in all industries and forces organizations to adapt their product visions, development approaches and business models. Especially the immense amount of software needed for realizing safe, secure and automated electrified vehicle functions indicates a shift from pure hardware- to software-defined vehicle systems. The resulting complexity is calling for new capabilities in system integration and virtual validation, where collaborative development, digital twin settings or automated test factories turned out to represent key solutions instrumental for coping with the upcoming challenges in vehicle system development, production, and operation.

ABOUT THE SUMMER SCHOOL
Organized by VIRTUAL VEHICLE, Graz University of Technology  and University of Graz

September 13-15, 2021 | Start 09:00 AM Central European Time (CEST) | LIVE STREAM EVENT

Although artificial intelligence is not a new research field, it has been evolving at an accelerated pace in recent years and is already in influencing and changing our lives. Thus, a solid theoretical foundation is needed for the design of real-world applications. To obtain useful and trustable AI-solutions, the interaction between academia and industry must be promoted and intensified under the motto: “theory meets application” and “problem meets solution”.

With the PhD Days, VIRTUAL VEHICLE offers the brightest talents of its PhD Cooperation program the chance to present their works to a broader audience. In close cooperation with international universities and research institutions, the format creates a stage for young scientists and their ideas for future mobility.

Set up as a hybrid event, this year’s PhD Days will welcome several PhD students and their supervising professors in person, others will be included via MS Teams meeting. COMET K2 partners are invited to join via MS Teams as well. Additionally, outstanding VIRTUAL VEHICLE examples of research projects with strong involvement of PhD students will be presented.

We are looking forward to the participation of all PhD students and their supervisors as well as the intended exchange and mutual benefit out of the individual PhD presentations!
