Keynotes

Dr. Paul Nielsen

"Challenges of Increasingly Autonomous Systems"

Autonomous systems are attracting strong interest today because they can provide a significant advantage to military forces, which the US and its allies are well positioned to exploit. However, they come with a variety of challenges for development and deployment. This talk will address some compelling challenges and suggest possible approaches to dealing with them.

 

Mr. Paul Tilghman

Program Manager, Microsystems Technology Office (MTO), Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)
"DARPA Collabrative Spectrum Grand Challenge"

The speaker is the Program Manager for the DARPA Spectrum Collaboration Grand Challenge, has the premise that collaborative use of spectrum can make this scarce resource more available to everybody. He will begin his talk with an overview of the DARPA Grand Challenges, including the Robotics and Cyber Challenges, and will include insights form his expertise in the areas of electronic warfare and software defined radios.
