Keynote: Getting to Smart
09:45–10:30
Engineers and scientists strive for “smart” in the systems they develop, the discoveries they make, and the way they work and learn. While the value of “smart” is clear, it isn’t always apparent how to get there. In this presentation, Sameer Prabhu shows you how companies and universities are reaching their smart outcomes—using new computing hardware, global teamwork, and modelling and simulation—with MATLAB and Simulink.
