Foreword

In the same way as time will be subject to permanent changes, the focus of the AmE Conference is going to change. More than ten years ago, when the AmE Conference was launched, automotive electronics was characterized by a continuously growing network of many dedicated ECUs (Electronic Control Units). Looking at today‘s technology and changing requirements, particularly in communication, we see that mobility turns out to become a service rather than a means of transport. Intermodal travelling is in the transition from vision to reality, and car sharing is no longer the dream of lunatics - it has rather become a viable option for many people, especially in combination with electric vehicles.

These changes have impact on the automotive technology and development methodologies. The architecture is in transition from a heterogenous network of ECUs towards a centralized system with high computational power. These new systems are built with new technologies and require new development and simulation tools for handling the complexity. The current software development will

continue regarding many safety relevant domains, but new approaches such as Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning are entering the stage due to the need of a more human-like driving experience. This is now possible due to handle the huge amounts of data, generated by sensors and the link to the backbone servers providing additional information.

AmE addresses industry as well as academia to improve the communication between the two mentioned worlds, triggering new ideas. AmE is also an excellent platform for presenting research work and getting immediate feedback from application engineering. This interaction is one of the main strengths of the AmE and the biggest reward for all participants.

Automotive meets Electronics – and we would like to meet you!

Important dates

02.11.2020 Deadline for submission of abstracts

16.12.2020 Notification of authors

07.02.2021 Final version of your contribution

10.-11.03.2021 AmE in Dortmund

We are confident that we will meet in person next year in Dortmund in March 2021.

If COVID-19 still makes face-to-face contact impossible by then, AmE 2021 will take place as an online conference.

Submission guidelines

The abstracts must have a length between 400 and 1000 words. The length of the final contribution must cover at least 4 pages, but should not exceed 6 pages. Please indicate the topic domain of your contribution. The language of your contribution can be German or English. However, only contributions in English will be published at IEEExplore.

www.ame-konferenz.de

Contributions for presentations and posters will be treated equally in the proceedings. Both will be published as GMM-Fachbericht by VDE press.

Best Contribution Award

As every year, we will reward the best contribution (submission and presentation).
