MATLAB EXPO Highlights
Industry leaders and MathWorks experts will present use cases and interactive demonstrations to highlight the newest features and capabilitiesof MATLAB® and Simulink®. Academia and industry experts will lead over 50 sessions, four plenary presentations, and eight hands-on workshops using MATLAB Online and Simulink Online. In addition, the Technology Showcase area will feature the latest innovations from MathWorks and its industry partners, such as ST Microelectronics, AWS, and Infineon Technologies.
Five keynote speakers will be featured at MATLAB EXPO, including:
- Louis Lintereur, Chief Engineer of Automated Delivery Systems, Medtronic Diabetes, will present “A Model-Based Design Journey from Aerospace to Artificial Pancreas System.” Lintereur will shed light on Medtronic’s cross-disciplinary approach to developing an artificial pancreas system that transforms diabetes therapy through automated insulin therapy. This keynote will highlight how Medtronic used MathWorks software to rapidly design, validate, and launch their innovative system.
- Dr. Darryll J. Pines, President of the University of Maryland, will discuss “The Empathetic Engineers of Tomorrow.” This presentation focuses on developing a new cohort of future engineers prepared to tackle the challenges of our time by developing interpersonal skills, cultural sensitivity, and social responsibility. President Pines will discuss how new research, experiential learning opportunities, and grassroots education initiatives can help train engineers who consider the ethical implications of their work and are prepared to make real change for real people.
- María Elena Gavilán Alfonso, Technical Program Manager at MathWorks, will explore the landscape of software-defined products in her talk, “From Embedded to Empowered: The Rise of Software-Defined Products.” Gavilán-Alfonso will offer insights on the software-defined transformation occurring in sectors such as aerospace, medical, and industrial systems, as well as how this shift will impact development processes and risk mitigation.
- Heather Gorr, Principal MATLAB Product Marketing Manager at MathWorks, and Tianyi Zhu, Product Marketing Manager for Simulink and AI at MathWorks, will introduce “What’s New in MATLAB and Simulink R2024b.” This talk will provide attendees with an overview of the latest capabilities in MATLAB and Simulink for taking your ideas from research to production. This includes ease-of-use enhancements for the editors to support rapid prototyping and design scaling, new tools for automating build and test workflows, and new options for deploying algorithms and models to cloud and production systems. Gorr and Zhu will also discuss new features for integrating with other languages, including Python, and new capabilities for specific application areas, including AI.
Flexible Access to Interactive Presentations
As an online event, MATLAB EXPO 2024 is open to registration from participants worldwide: matlabexpo.com/online/2024.html. On both days, the event will be repeated in three blocks of 4 hours for participants in three time zones. Those located in Asia (9:00 a.m. IST), Europe (10:00 a.m. CET), and North America (11:00 a.m. EST) will have the opportunity to select sessions from any block to suit their schedules.
