Affiliation:

Bosch Corporate Research, Germany

Bio:

"Dr. Arne Hamann (Bosch) obtained his PhD in Computer Science in 2008 from the Technical University of Braunschweig Germany. He is Chief Expert for "Distributed Intelligent Systems" at Bosch Corporate Research. Like the Bosch product portfolios his range of actives is very broads encompassing complex embedded systems where the interaction between physical processes hardware and software plays a major role through to distributed IoT systems with elements of (edge) cloud computing. In the academic contexts he is member of the editorial board of the ACM journal “Transactions on Cyber Physical Systems” and regularly serves as program committee member for international conferences such as ECRTS, RTSS, RTAS, DAC, EMSOFT, and ICCPS."

Bio:

"Dedicated engineer with a passion for research and technology. He has been working in the research departments of leading technical companies for the past 12+ years with responsibilities ranging from architectural design and idea generation, through business modeling and presenting ideas at board level both internally and externally. He has had a very technical career, working across all aspects of the development workflow from board design and bringup, kernel development, application stack design and implementation and final product integration. His career has also exposed him to the non-technical aspects of the industry including pitching ideas, leading teams and budgeting for project completion. "
