The KU Leuven Centre for IT & IP Law is organizing the second edition of its Leuven AI Law & Ethics Conference (LAILEC) – #LAILEC2020. The event will take place on 18 February 2020 in Leuven (Belgium).

The first conference is a moment of discovery for a researcher, repaying months of hard work, revealing how the academic world works, and generating new ideas for the papers of tomorrow from discussions with peers. A conference is also a place where industry and academia can meet and join forces to solve problems relevant to both worlds.

An ESR’s perspective on SAS Network Wide Event 1 held at Toulouse from 02/12/2019 to 05/12/2019

From December 02 till December 05, the first network wide event of the MSCA ETN SAS project takes place at LAAS-CNRS in Toulouse.

Summarizing, wrong assumptions while designing safety features, cruising in an uncertain and dynamic environment, while blatantly carrying out operational misuse are the prime suspects for the fall of the giant. I call them “The Usual Suspects” as they are still persistent to challenge safety in today’s systems.

A five-day primer in systems safety engineering

What was considered mere science fiction a few decades ago is quickly becoming a tangible reality: self-driving cars have been hailed as a mobility revolution in the making which will potentially improve safety, accessibility and efficiency.

Pursuing a PhD is a once in a lifetime experience. Motivation and passion, while balancing mind and health, are key elements for success.

Tianlei Miao is part of the MSCA ETN-SAS Project as an Early Stage Researcher. The topic of this project is “Assuring Autonomous Sailing from A to B while Minimizing Operational Costs”. The aim is to minimize operational costs by combining a cost-optimization algorithm, a collision-avoidance algorithm, and situational awareness. This research will be conducted at RH Marine and in collaboration ...
