Digitalisation of industry, vehicles, planes, infrastructure, services leads to new system and software architectures, new standards to be followed, new uses cases, new service models, and so forth. The EU Blueprint project DRIVES came up with a set of major drivers of change which are used below as thematic paper topics.
DRIVES (2018 - 2021) is a large EU project which implements the vision of GEAR 2030. Gear 2030 is a strategy pannel in Brussels where the association of car manufacturers in Europe and the association of all Automotive suppliers in Europe share an expert team to develop the vision of the future skills / job roles needed for the Automotive industry till 2030. The year 2030 marks a corner stone where cars are driving in a networked infrastructure and cars are developed with so much intellegence, electronics, sensors and software to offer self driving. Moreover, it is planned to network the entire infrastructure, with a production in an industry 4.0 environment and on the air uploads to update cars constantly. Also new energy concepts are planned to provide enough electric power and new service and business models are created. And new chemical and material research is done to allow leight weight vehicles, and vehicles that can reload batteries during drive etc. Members of DRIVES will share exeriences with contributing parties, and experts contribution papers can share their ideas with GEAR 2030 and DRIVES. DRIVES is continued by the Blueprint FLAMENCO (2022-2024) that established an Automotive Skills Alliance in Europe as the pact for skills partner in the automotive sector. And the new Blueprint TRIREME (2024-2028) started to support the future green mobility skills related strategy of Europe wide upskilling and reskilling.

Additional Information
The idea of this workshop community is to elaborate a set of best practices and success factors for the implementation of a digitilised industry, infrastructure and highy automated vehicles. Also DRIVES develops a pool of skills that will be provided with training to the Automotive industry and this workshop is contributing to ideas to be implemented in DRIVES.
Relevant topics, among others will be Industry 4.0 advanced manufacturing, additive layer manufgacturing (3D printing), knowledge engineering, robotics & automation, artificial intelligence, Smart Car, Car to Car communication, sensor clusters, Highly Automoted Drive, Fail Safe Concepts, Big Data Processing, Robotic engineering, Electrical Powertrain
Zero Emission, Smart energy management, New business models, New legislation
Learning vehicles, sustainability (CO2 reduction) Eco & recycling, Used electronics treatment e.g. battery, bio(circular) economy, Hydrogen/Fuel Cell vehicles, E-Mobility service models, etc.
Interactive Workshop Approach
Focus of interest and main questions discussed during the workshop will be:- Best and next practices to develop a digitilised industry, infrastructure, automated vehicles, planes, trains, etc.
- Standards to be considered in implementing the digitilisation strategy.
- Bad practices/experiences (what not to do) to deploy the digitilisation strategy..
- How can existing organisations adapt to the digitilisation strategy. in terms of skills, roles, competencies, system environment, software environment, etc.
- Which assessment model can be used to measure the capability of an artificial intelligence based digitilised infrastructure?
- Which new comcepts are needed to mange this?
