Abstract
During this workshop experts from academia and practice will discuss how research in this area can
contribute to solving industry’s needs and what major challenges need to be addressed in this regard within a
timeframe of 10 years. We aim to formulate grand visions for this joint endeavor.
The workshop will be introduced by talks of experts and followed by a debate on grand visions, measures how
these can be realized, and how we can assess a successful accomplishment.
The intention is to ignite a fruitful dialogue and collaboration between different research groups and to
involve industry experts in these activities.
