The growth of electronics within the automobile has been nothing short of phenomenal. In 2015 it accounted for 13% of the total value of the car and in 2018 it has now jumped to 20%. A large portion of that has been purely due to the rise of computing-based components, such as ADAS, ECUs, etc. New technologies such as haptic sensors, and augmented reality heads-up displays — which offer drivers alerts, safety aids, and warnings on invisible screens embedded in the windshield — have entered the vocabulary of traditional suppliers. Large navigation and entertainment display screens in the dashboard offer Web-based information and media as well as data arrays picked up from networked roads and other cars. The autonomous car will further up the ante, and soon. It will change the “living space” dimension of automotive interiors. This talk will focus on many of what is the “under the hood” computing portions, technologies and the accompanying massive software baggage that needs to go with it. It is time we got more familiar with the computing technologies and underlying foundations that go with it. We will introduce many terms, concepts and issues to help folks in Automotive technologies get better prepared for the future (or is fusion a better word?) world of automotive & computer tech.

Abstract: Predicting the future is never easy, it always entails a degree of uncertainty, if not luck. Predicting technology trends is even harder as it requires both technical and business acumen, e.g., whether the technology will be developed, productized, and ultimately adopted on the market. It is almost an art to distill between a fashion and a true scientific trend. At the same time, the public likes to read predictions and many individuals and organizations regularly write technology predictions, such as Gartner, MIT, Forbes and many others regularly produce predictions. IEEE Computer Society started its technology predictions informally in early 2010 and formally via annual press releases in 2014, followed by their respective scorecards in 2016. We realized that our audience appreciates self-evaluation, hence we introduced scorecards at the end of the period of prediction. Our predictions reached substantial audience, e.g., in 2018, it was picked up by 300 media outlets (84.6M audience), which is entirely different from classical publishing. We considered predictions as a new type of publication, a lightweight, short publication (approximately a paragraph per prediction). These predictions also triggered other media outreach, such as blogs, interviews, panel sessions, and this special issue of IEEE Computer magazine. Over the years we became better in press releases and social media announcing our report, to the extent that it became visible at the IEEE Board of Directors, and found its way to the report of the IEEE Executive Director. One notable side-product that grew out of our predictions was the 2022 report that comprehensively predicted 23 technologies 7 years ahead. This report had a sister report written by Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), Taiwan on technology predictions specific to Asia. These technology predictions surpassed all our expectations in terms of impact, and we plan to continue for as long as audience has interest. Co-sponsored by: George Pappas Speaker(s): Dejan S.

The imminent commercialization of quantum computing technologies poses significant risks to classical encryption algorithms. In response, the National Institute of Standards and Technology is spearheading efforts to standardize robust Postquantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms. This study focuses on the Multivariate Polynomial Public Key Digital Signature Trefoil Knot (MPPK/DSTK) algorithm, a notable advancement refactored from recent PQC developments, distinguished by its integration of true random numbers generated by quantum computers. To evaluate its integrity and robustness against deep learning-based brute force attacks, we introduced semi-covariance correlation analysis — a novel assessment method in this context — to explore the algorithm’s resilience by potentially narrowing the search space. Our analysis reveals that MPPK/DSTK exhibits superior performance, with lower semi-covariance and enhanced robustness compared to the traditional Rivest–Shamir–Adleman (RSA) public-key cryptosystem, especially with selected twin seed primes. We have made our developments accessible on GitHub, inviting the research community to engage in further comparative studies and collaborative enhancements. This study underscores the MPPK/DSTK algorithm’s potential as a formidable contender in the evolution of cryptography, offering a significant leap forward in securing digital communications against the quantum computing threat. Both public and private key size are minimized to cater the connected and autonomous vehicle applications, the computation cost is also minimized for Internet of Things usage as well.

[] Prof. Shlomi Dolev, Executive Director of the BGU-Negev Hi-Tech Faculty Startup Accelerator, will present on Post Quantum Internet. The need for a post-quantum Internet is emerging, and this is a great opportunity to re-examine the legacy of public key infrastructure. There is a need for perspective on the evolution of cryptography over the years, including the perfect information-theoretical secure schemes and the computationally secure schemes, in particular. There is also a need to examine the evolving Internet infrastructure to identify efficient design and secure cryptographic schemes over the existing Internet infrastructure. A combination of overlay security, blockchain, and Merkle trees with Lamport’s signatures offers just such an easily implementable post-quantum Internet over the existing Internet. The talk will cover recent research that resulted in start-ups creation initiatives, including Secret Double Octopus, SecretSkyDB, SodsBC.

Many patients have health issues that require living with an implanted device, such as a pacemaker that helps the heart keep its rhythm. For safety reasons, when a person with an implanted device needs an MRI, scanning can be limited to an MRI machine with a lower magnetic field, such as a 1.5 Tesla (or 1.5T) MRI scanner. However, when a patient needs a brain scan, an MRI with a stronger magnetic field, a 3T MRI, is the best technology to get high-quality images. A few years ago, Mayo Clinic received the first compact 3T MRI scanner, an advanced prototype developed under an NIH-funded collaboration between GE Research and Mayo Clinic. The compact 3T scanner is a small, high-performance machine with a narrow central chamber, known as the patient bore. The small bore of the compact 3T scanner allows for scans of the head and extremities. For patients with metal implanted devices, whether pacemakers or spinal stimulators, a major advantage of using the compact 3T MRI for a brain scan is that the strength of the electromagnetic fields drops off rapidly outside the bore and, therefore, is lower at the location of the implanted device than around the brain. This talk explores whether this compact 3T scanner can be used for brain scans of patients with metallic implanted devices.
