7th International Symposium on Development Methodology
Ideal combination of virtual and real world
At the 7th International Symposium on Development Methodology in mid-November 2017, more than 250 experts from industry and research met in Wiesbaden's Kurhaus to discuss the shift of testing and safeguarding from road to testbeds and into the virtual world. For the first time there was a new event concept with parallel sections at this unique industry get-together, which enabled an even broader thematic diversity. For example, the symposium was extended to include the increasingly important topic of virtualization. After all, an early safeguarding of complex development goals requires the virtual modeling of vehicle concepts or components at times when they are not available in real life.
More than 30 speakers from OEMs, suppliers, engineering service providers and universities provided important impulses for mastering future challenges in the global development network. They all agreed on the importance of simulation in vehicle development and explicitly emphasized that only the right combination of real and virtual worlds can lead to an efficient development process.
After two days full of knowledge, there was a lot of positive feedback from the participants. In terms of content, the scientific event scored points with a broad range of topics and a high professional quality of the contributions. In particular, topics such as virtual prototyping in powertrain development or the integration of new methods into the development process aroused great interest. In addition, the International Symposium on Development Methodology is a popular platform for exchanging ideas with colleagues.
Would you like to join us next time? Mark the 12th and 13th of November 2019 in your calendar, because then the 8th International Symposium on Development Methodology will take place in Wiesbaden. We look forward to seeing you!
Topic
Main topics of this event
- Development methodology from theory and practice of vehicle and powertrain development (simulation, approach, calibration, modeling and optimization, data post processing, etc.)
- Virtualization and digitalization in terms of pure simulation and with regard to interlinking of simulation with topics of application, vehicle or system testing, e.g. innovative approaches of co-simulation in the vehicle area in combination with testbed technology
- Development methodology for current legislative or technology issues, e.g. RDE (Real Driving Emissions), challenges due to increasing electrification or ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems)
- Methodical approaches in the area of data pre-processing, e.g. methodical approaches in terms of data evaluation – keyword: data analytics
- Application of OEM real world experience will be featured throughout the program, such as process issues to increase efficiency in vehicle development and introduction of development methodology.
Why should I participate in this event?
- Tailor-made event: A unique event with target-oriented issues and practical experiences for people involved with development methodology in vehicle and powertrain development.
- Comprehensive and compact: Get up-to-date in just two days and find out about new trends and developments in development methodology.
- First-hand theoretical and practical knowledge: Learn more and directly from the users about development methods and how to adapt the methods to changing requirements.
