---|
Hosted by Department of Electrical and Information Technology at Lund University
The Fourth Annual ELLIIT Workshop will be held in Lund on October 22-23, 2013. The ELLIIT Workshop is a yearly meeting for the ELLIIT Strategic Research Area within IT & Mobile Communication involving Linköping University, Lund University, Blekinge Institute of Technology, and Halmstad University.
The workshop takes place in Matematikannexet, LTH, Sölvegatan 20, a map over the main conference venues is at the bottom of this page.
The Workshop is aimed at both the researchers at the four universities involved in ELLIIT activities and external participants.The aim of the Workshop is to give a comprehensive presentation of the research areas and to stimulate further cooperation and discussions for future directions. Last year's workshop was held in Linköping and gathered about 150 attendances.

Keynotes
Björn Ekelund
Title: ”Breaking the curve”
“The computing pendulum swings back; From far-away server halls to ubiquitous intelligence.”
Abstract:
“We have seen the world swing back and forth from centralized (IBM370 in the 80’s and Google in the 00’s) to distributed (PC in the 90’s) paradigms and it is now time for a new swing. With the current and forecasted rate of development in digital services and both human and machine related data generation, a centralized cloud computing model is becoming unsustainable. To address this, both devices and networks will have to employ new types of intelligence and communication. The distributed mobile cloud is our connected future.”
“Björn Ekelund has an M.Sc.E.E. and a Ph.L. in telecommunications microelectronics, both from Lund University. Mr. Ekelund has held leading positions in telecommunications research and technology for over 25 years and has contributed to the creation and introduction of all major cellular standards. He currently heads the Ecosystem and Strategy unit in Ericsson Business Unit Modems and is also part of the Ericsson Group technology strategy staff. In parallel with his work at Ericsson, he is the interim director for MAPCI – The Mobile and Pervasive Computing Institute at Lund University.”

Title: "Safe Semi-Autonomous Control of Unmanned Ground Vehicles"
Abstract:
Semi-autonomous teleoperated control of unmanned ground vehicles is a challenging tasks for several reasons. First, remote operators often experience reduced situational awareness due to limited sensory feedback. Second, the presence of communications latency can degrade performance and reduce achievable task speed and complexity. Finally, bandwidth limits can fundamentally restrict the type and quality of sensory data that can be transmitted to the operator. This talk will discuss the development of various technologies at MIT aimed at enabling safe teleoperation of unmanned ground vehicles over degraded communications links. An approach to assistive vehicle control that acts as an "intelligent co-pilot" to mitigate vehicle collisions and instability will be described. Methods for visual feature extraction to enable teleoperation over extremely low bandwidth comms links will also be discussed. Finally, learning-based methods for adaptively sensing terrain properties will be discussed. The talk will conclude with a description of applications to fully autonomous vehicle operation.
Karl Iagnemma is Director of the Robotic Mobility Group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He holds a B.S. from the University of Michigan, and an M.S. and Ph.D. from MIT, where he was a National Science Foundation Graduate Fellow. He has performed postdoctoral research at MIT, and been a visiting researcher at the NASA JPL, the National Technical University of Athens (Greece), and the University of Halmstad (Sweden). Dr. Iagnemma’s primary research interests are in the areas of design, modeling, motion planning, and control of robotic vehicles in complex terrain. He is author of the book, "Mobile Robots in Rough Terrain: Estimation, Planning and Control with Application to Planetary Rovers" (Springer, 2004). He has recently led research programs for organizations including DARPA, JPL, Nissan, Samsung, the U.S. Army TARDEC, the Army Research Office, the NASA Mars Office, Ford Motor Company, and many others. He has authored or co-authored over 100 conference and journal papers on a wide range of robotic topics, has received numerous issued patents in the areas of robotic system design and control, and has received several best paper awards for his research.
