ACM Chapters Computer Science in Cars Symposium (CSCS 2017)

Aim of the event

Innovation in cars is increasingly “driven” by new technology from computer science. Examples are abundant: Autonomous driving, assistance system, in-vehicle entertainment, and many others. Cars equipped with such technology are likely to become the next big thing which will result in changes in the society as well as in the manner how cars are produced and used. This disruption in automotive industry creates many opportunities but also challenges. They can best be addressed by bringing together key people who jointly discuss novel ideas from research in the practical context of industrial applications.

We are pleased to announce the rst German Computer Science and Cars Symposium (CSCS). CSCS aims to create bridges between academic research on the one hand and practitioners from the automotive industry on the other. The focus of this rst CSCS event is set on autonomous driving and deep learning. The one day event combines key-note, invited and short presentations, poster sessions and ample opportunities for dis- cussions and networking. An open call for position papers will present the latest ideas, results, and challenges from academia and industry in poster sessions.
