About The Event

The ATS East Coast and West Coast Sum­mits, will focus on the con­ver­gence of vir­tu­al and phys­i­cal spaces in auto­mo­tive embed­ded soft­ware develop­ment. These events will gath­er indus­try lead­ers to dis­cuss advance­ments, share insights, and fos­ter col­lab­o­ra­tion. The ATS Sum­mits aim to drive inno­va­tion and pro­vide valu­able insights into the future of auto­mo­tive embed­ded soft­ware develop­ment, posi­tion­ing atten­dees at the fore­front of indus­try advance­ments. This event is com­pli­men­ta­ry and open exclu­sive­ly to guests invit­ed through TASKING rep­re­sen­ta­tives or our val­ued part­ners.

Why Attend?

Hear from our ecosys­tem part­ners as they dis­cuss the most recent trends and solu­tions impact­ing the develop­ment of auto­mo­tive safe and secure embed­ded appli­ca­tions. You will be pro­vid­ed with in-depth infor­ma­tion from indus­try lead­ers on the lat­est soft­ware develop­ment tools and strate­gies for opti­miz­ing your auto­mo­tive ECU design process.

Ses­sions will be fol­lowed by an infor­mal panel dis­cus­sion with our speak­ers and a net­work­ing recep­tion where you can see live demos and chat with fel­low atten­dees, our part­ners, and sub­ject mat­ter experts.

Who Should Attend?

Multi-core archi­tects, hard­ware and soft­ware design­ers, sys­tem inte­gra­tors, verification/validation engi­neers, work­ing on the next gen­er­a­tion of mobil­i­ty solu­tions.

The Auto­mo­tive Tool­chain Sym­po­sium will give you prac­ti­cal infor­ma­tion to help you meet your unique per­for­mance and safe­ty require­ments and will show­case a fully inte­grat­ed and stream­lined develop­ment work­flow.
