About the Conference

Classic vehicles are turning into mobile, software-defined vehicles and IoT devices. Vehicles of the future require the highest computing performance, with more powerful control units and compliance with continuously stricter standards. Challenges include security, functional safety, cloud connectivity, increased design complexity, and more. At ACC we rethink traditional approaches to fit the way we work in the automotive industry. Our renowned speakers will dive into the topic of automotive high-performance computing on many different aspects.

Our Focus Topic in 2022

How will intelligence be distributed in future zone-based E/E architectures?

The automotive industry is gearing towards zone-based architectures, leading to improved scalability, system performance, more efficient distribution of data and energy consumption, at lower costs. We will look at the key technical and economical questions on the road ahead.
