Abstract:
The 21 st century cyber physical age is about the seamless integration of cyber and physical systems. The
growth of cyber physical systems is motivated by the need to address the challenges stemming from the
socio-economic megatrends such as population increase, changing demographics, rapid urbanization and
resource constraints. Cyber physical applications – from healthcare and factories to city scale supply side
infrastructure such as power, water, waste, transport – present an exciting opportunity to the signal
processing community. With respect to cyber-physical signal processing applications, the key to success
lies in taking the learning from today, image signal processing as an example, in combination with the
signal processing of the machine age centered around domain knowledge.
Signal processing in the 1980s was about availing structured data streams from physical systems, and
using various instruments and analysis techniques, to infer and acting upon the data. The workflow often
began with an understanding of the domain - dynamics of physical structures as an example - and running
experiments to prove or disprove a hypothesis. In the latter part of 20 th century cyber age, the rise of
image processing hardware and the ability to manage large amounts of data, led to exciting advancements
in learning from data from visual systems. In this talk, I will make the case that cyber physical systems of
tomorrow will require us to take a holistic perspective covering domain knowledge, design and topology
associated with computing hardware, together with data mining and knowledge discovery.
We will have to leverage our past to create the future.
Biography:
Chandrakant has led HP in delivering innovations in chips, systems, data centers, storage, networking, print
engines and software platforms. He is a pioneer in thermal and energy management in data centers, and in
application of the information technology to drive available energy management at city scales.
Chandrakant is an ASME and an IEEE Fellow, holds 151 patents, and has published more than 150 technical
papers. An advocate of the return to fundamentals, he has served as an adjunct faculty in engineering at
Chabot College, U.C. Berkeley Extension, San Jose State University and Santa Clara University. In 2014,
Chandrakant was elected to the Silicon Valley Engineering Hall of Fame. In 2018, Chandrakant was elected
to the National Academy of Engineering.
Chandrakant started his collegiate education in a community college and has immense passion for training
and inclusion programs for under-served communities. He believes that companies architecting solutions
for the 21 st century cyber physical age should be socially responsible and lead with purpose, making life
better for everyone, everywhere.
