Conference program

RTNS 2021 will be hold virtually (in Gather Town). Each presentation has two components: a longer presentation of 20 minutes to be watched before the actual conferences; and then a 5-minutes presentation to be played/exposed live in during the session. Each session is organized by a session chair. During the session, questions can be asked following the presenter’s short talk.

Keynote: Validation and Evaluation of Safety and Reliability of Automated Vehicles

  • The Keynote will be given by Professor Daniel Watzenig from Technical University of Graz.
  • This talk will give an overview about the current state-of-play and will address the current challenges of evaluating reliability and safety of mixed criticality, software-defined automated vehicles. Particularly, multi-sensor perception, data fusion and decision making under uncertainty given real-time constraints will be discussed.
  • This talk will be presented live.
