Abstract: Currently we can see and hear through the
Internet, but we cannot touch. We have a vision to create the Tactile Internet,
where we would be able to touch through the median of the Internet. This would
transform some very basic but vital tasks, like online shopping where the user
might want to touch and feel the texture of a dress or jacket before buying it,
but, most importantly, this has the potential to transform the way that
healthcare, engineering and wealth is delivered globally. We will be able to
convey physical, tactile experiences remotely and thus invoke a fundamental
shift from content-delivery to skillset-delivery networks. This talk will
summarize the potentials, building blocks and challenges which lay ahead for
designing the Tactile Internet.

Abstract: This keynote is focused on mutual intersection of
interesting fields of research: bio-inspired algorithms, deterministic chaos and
complex systems. The first one will discuss main principles of bio-inspired
methods, its historical background and its use on various examples including
real world ones. Examples include plasma reactor control, optimal signal routing
in the network of portable meteorological stations, complex system design as
antenna design, nonlinear system and controllers design and more. Also its use
on deterministic chaos control with focusing on simple chaotic systems
(logistic, Hennon,…) as well as CML systems exhibiting spatiotemporal chaos
will be mentioned and explained. The second part will discuss use of
deterministic chaos instead of pseudo-random number generators inside
evolutionary algorithms with application on well known evolutionary algorithms
(differential evolution, PSO, SOMA, genetic algorithms,..) and test functions.
Mutual comparison will be presented, based on our research. Also will be
discussed question whether evolutionary dynamics really need pseudo- random
numbers or no. At the end will be mentioned a novel approach joining
evolutionary dynamics, complex networks and CML systems exhibiting chaotic
behavior. Reported methodology and results are based on actual state of art
(that is a part of this tutorial) as well as on our own research. Tutorial is
designed as an introduction; no advanced or expert knowledge from complex
networks, chaos and control is expected.
Biography: Ivan Zelinka (born in 1965, http://www.ivanzelinka.eu/) is currently associated with the Technical University of Ostrava (VSB-TU), Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. He graduated consequently at the Technical University in Brno (1995 – MSc.), UTB in Zlin (2001 – Ph.D.) and again at Technical University in Brno (2004 – Assoc. Prof.) and VSB-TU (2010 – Professor).

Abstract: In addition to providing an outstanding mobile
broadband experience, next generation wireless access (5G) aims to support a
wide range of industrial applications. Many of these industrial applications
will pose new requirements in addition to the requirements from traditional
mobile broadband services and thereby stretch the system design in novel ways.
In this talk we explore some of the novel use cases we foresee for 5G, the
requirements they bring and some solutions needed to meet them.

Abstract: Phenomena of ongoing industry revolution referred
to as Industry 4.0 revolution encompasses a enormous series of innovative
processes combining new automation and robotics technologies in order to reflect
the growing and demanded fast moving markets. Industry Positioning technology in
recent years got into its mature state and thus enabled to bring novel location
based services allowing to speed up the production and logistic process for many
industries. The talk shows the significance of the Industry 4.0 with the focus
on revolution in Active RFID technology enabling to open new markets in
automotive, logistic, warehouse, mining and entertainment industry. During the
talk, several applications of Industry Positioning system will be introduced
together with discussion of uses cases in safety applications.
Biography: Milan Simek is CEO of Sewio Networks, Czech company delivering wireless solution for industry positioning and navigation.
