Join IEEE and Madison-AI (MadAI) on August 19th for an intensive deep-dive into Claude Code, Anthropic's revolutionary command-line AI coding assistant that's transforming how developers build software. Experience coding at thought-speed with Claude's AI that understands your entire codebase—no more context switching, just breakthrough results Claude Code: Deep Coding at Terminal Velocity. This exclusive 1-hour presentation then a hack-a-thon, running from noon to 5 PM. This event is part of ForwardFest 2025, Wisconsin's largest technology and entrepreneurship festival attracting over 5,000 attendees Forwardfest creating an unparalleled opportunity to explore cutting-edge AI development tools alongside Madison's vibrant tech community. Our expert-led 45-minute presentation will unveil Claude Code's game-changing capabilities, from completing tasks in a single pass that would normally take 45+ minutes of manual work Claude Sonnet and Claude Code to enabling powerful multi-file edits that actually understand your project structure and existing patterns. You'll discover how Claude works directly in VS Code and seeing your entire codebase instead of just isolated snippets Claude Code: Deep Coding at Terminal Velocity, and learn to leverage its integration with GitHub and command-line tools for seamless workflow automation. Whether you're debugging complex issues, handling large-scale refactoring, or building entirely new applications, Claude Code represents a threshold moment for AI in software development. The highlight of our event is a 3-hour hackathon where you'll put Claude Code to the test, building real applications while networking with Madison's most innovative developers and entrepreneurs. This hands-on experience occurs during ForwardFest's 16th year as the state's flagship celebration of innovation and entrepreneurship About | Forward Fest, ensuring you're surrounded by like-minded innovators, potential collaborators, and industry leaders. Don't miss this opportunity to master the tool that's already become indispensable for development teams worldwide and position yourself at the forefront of AI-assisted software development. Co-sponsored by: MadAI Agenda: noon-12:45 talk on Claude code 12:45-1pm Q/A 1pm - 5pm AI hackathon Room: 302, Bldg: Madison Central Library, 201 West Mifflin Street, Madison, Wisconsin, United States, 53703, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/496232

[]Since its birth, the modern vehicle has undergone a profound transformation from a mechanical machine into a sophisticated, rolling network of computers. This evolution has enabled unprecedented advancements in performance, fuel economy, safety, comfort and convenience. At Industry 4.0, while automotive industry is going through a revolutionary trans formation to integrate with a smart society ecosystem, this has opened a new and critical battleground for cybersecurity. This talk charts the entire journey of automotive cybersecurity, "connecting the dots" from its nascent stages to the complex challenges of today and the cyber-physical frontiers of tomorrow. We will begin by revisiting the early days of isolated electronic control units (ECUs) and explore the pivotal moments that forced the industry to prioritize security. We will then dive deep into the current landscape, defined by the rise of the Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV), the complexities of V2X communication, and the regulatory mandates of ISO/SAE 21434 and UNECE R155. Drawing from over 17 years on the front lines of automotive product development, I will share real-world examples of implementing Threat Analysis and Risk Assessments (TARA) and secure-by-design principles in automotive ECUs. We will also discuss interoperability of security with ISO 14229, ISO 26262 , and ISO 21434 . Finally, we will look to the horizon, exploring the future of mobility where the challenges include securing AI-driven perception, defending against quantum computing threats, and building resilient cyber-physical systems for a world of connected and automated vehicle.
