In his presentation, entitled ‘Enabling Real-Time Systems & AI at the Edge’, Dr Dave Cavalcanti, Senior Engineer at Intel, will examine the architectural and system-level fundamentals required to enable deterministic real-time computing in conjunction with AI applications on modern edge platforms.
He will focus on time-coordinated computing, mixed-criticality workloads and the convergence of computing and networking as key factors for next-generation cyber-physical systems.
The presentation will discuss hardware, software and networking features, such as Time-Sensitive Networking, benchmarking tools and their role in enabling AI-enhanced real-time systems across various vertical markets.
The speaker
Dave Cavalcanti is a senior engineer at Intel Corporation, with extensive experience in distributed networking systems, connectivity, industry standards and ecosystems. He also serves as chairman of the Avnu Alliance, an industry forum that promotes standards and certification programmes to enable deterministic real-time performance based on interoperable Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) devices and converged networks.
He obtained a PhD in Computer Science and Engineering in 2006 from the University of Cincinnati, a Master’s degree in Computer Science and a Bachelor’s degree in Electronic Engineering from UFPE in Brazil. He has published over 50 peer-reviewed articles and holds more than 125 granted patents.
