Silicon Valley engineering software event welcomes industry experts, VIPs
Summary
In her keynote address, Elizabeth Baron, the Founder and Principal of Immersionary Enterprises, LLC, explores how industry is using immersive realities (like those seen in consumer VR headsets) to distribute and share product concepts, simultaneously, in real-time. As a result of such continuous, converging innovation, engineers have to adopt sophisticated new tools to conceptualize, design, validate, develop, make, and support a matrix of complex technologies. Offering insight into the industry’s current state of disruption is Hans Hartman, market research analyst for the photo and video industry, and president of Suite 48 Analytics. Facebook’s Jeff Allen, Director of Operations Engineering, will take listeners behind the scenes to Facebook’s designed-and-built integrated environment for manufacturing, testing, predictive analytics, hardware reliability, and product data management. Mark Rehmann, senior marketing manager at Dell will host a roundtable discussion to debate the impact this could have on areas like certification, as well as how dependent we should be on machine learning and cognitive computing elements.
