Every nation, especially India, needs to adopt a development model that is aimed to achieve socio-economic progress for its citizens and the benefits of development should reach to all the sections of society including the most vulnerable ones. To achieve this, Science and Technology have to play an important role for ensuring economic development as well as national security of our country. This was stated by Dr. Vijay Laxmi Saxena, General President, Indian Science Congress Association during the inaugural ceremony of India’s biggest Tech Invent hosted by Chandigarh University, Gharuan. Eminent personalities including Prof. Chem Eshed, Co-founder, Israel Space Agency; Prof. Anil D. Sahasrabudhe, Chairman All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) New Delhi; Padma Shri Prof. J.S Rajput, Indian representative at UNESCO; Prof. N V Varghese, VC, NIEPA; Prof. Manpreet Singh Manna, former Director AICTE; Prof. Anantha Duraiappah, Director, UNESCO, MGIEP and Prof. Dr. R.S Bawa, Pro-Chancellor Chandigarh University were amongst the other dignitaries who were present during the inauguration ceremony.

More than 50,000 young and budding technocrats from various top ranked Universities and Institutions like IITs, NITs, IIITs and IIMs are taking part in the two-day National Level Tech Fest being organized by Chandigarh University. Tech Invent-2021 has more than 60 competitions covering the field of Engineering, Management, Liberal Arts, Hotel Management, Sciences, Health Sciences, Media, Film Production, Agriculture and Law. While addressing the students, Dr. Laxmi said, “India has always been amongst the leading nations of the world which has contributed in the field of Science and Technology. But in the 21st century, India has emerged as the power house for the world as it has provided the best of young brain to the world in the form of Scientists, Engineers, Researchers who through their knowledge have developed new technologies and tools to help the society.

She further said, “We need to make Indian Science and Technology more vibrant and thus universities and educational institutions need to trigger the thought process of the students. Universities and educational institutions need to go beyond the classroom and textbook learning and expanding the frontiers of knowledge should be top priority of the educational institutions.” There is more need to be laid on the quality of research in our university, which will have a significant impact on society. Various academic institutions and universities should establish partnerships with each other, so that joint research efforts will meet the future prospects and expectations of the country, added Dr. Vijay Laxmi.

While addressing the virtual audience, Prof. Chem Eshed said, “Technology can get us together and advance us all to a better future. You need to have the intelligence where humanity stands in front of technology and take a step forward for a better world.” He further said, “There is a need to motivate students towards innovation and research. Israel has progressing in space technology by building nano-satellites instead of traditional satellite systems. Students at the higher and secondary levels in Israel are being encouraged to build nano-satellites.” India and Israel always persuade other nations not to work against one other and always working for the betterment of the society in the space sector, added Prof. Chem Eshed.

While delivering his keynote address Prof. Anil D. Sahasrabudhe said, “Education for all is the objective of our New Education Policy. The New Education policy in its first paragraph itself talks about exploring full human potential. Every individual has inert talent in them. It is the role of teachers to bring out, explore, identify, nurture, support and make individual students to blossom, that’s what our Indian values and ethos told us and also New Education policy talks about this”.  Highlighting the importance of mother tongue in school and higher education Prof. Sahasrabudhe said, “Early education in mother tongue leads to a stronger foundation. A child is comfortable in its own mother tongue. Therefore, initial education must be given in mother tongue.” However, not alone this, Higher education wherever possible should be given in the mother tongue. Because many students go through education up to 12th standard in their mother tongue and when they come to higher education in various streams, they do not understand what is going on and that is why there is the possibility of mother tongue in higher education, added Sahasrabudhe.

While addressing the virtual audience, Prof. J.S Rajput said, “With the New Education Policy, if we strengthen the foundation of intellectual and moral development of the students in the initial stages of school, then surely its result will be seen automatically in higher education, and it will not be difficult to ensure Indian values and holistic development in education.”  Prof. J.S Rajput further said, “The new education policy will bring a change in the prescribed syllabus, prescribed examination of the old educational system.  If new ideas and imagination of the students are nurtured, then this will encourage creativity and entrepreneurship in between the students.”  We need an education system, which along with knowledge builds a moral and intellectual society. He said that at present people do not want to send their children to government schools, so this is the right time to restore the credibility and acceptability of the government schools, added Prof. J.S Rajput.

Innovation and equality would play a vital role in the future development of higher education. In future, only those institutions would develop which would encourage students towards innovation, said Prof. N.V Varghese. He further said, “Education is the most powerful tool to reduce poverty and inequality. India has made significant progress in the last few decades in the universalization of primary education, access to schools, infrastructure, teacher-student ratio, and improvement in girls’ enrollment.

Education systems need to pay attention to equip learners with emotional intelligence. We are at the stage where we can provide personalized education because we have the technology in our fingertips and we should explore the technology, said Prof. Anantha DuraiappahSocial and emotional training must be mandatory in teacher training. Teachers act as advisors for students’ future careers. To live up to these expectations, the teacher must first be able to regulate her/his emotions, added Prof. Anantha Duraiappah.

Automotive Digital Cockpit Domain Controller Power Expected to Double by 2030

Published

NEW YORK, March 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The lengthening lifecycle of vehicles is driving automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to plan several years of customer support through regular Over-the-Air (OTA) updates. Achieving this requires a digital Cockpit Domain Controller (CDC) with an architecture that supports long-term updating and maintenance. According to a new report from global technology intelligence firm ABI Research, the computing power of the CDC will increase significantly over the next few years, with graphical computing power and deep-learning processing power (for AI-powered functions) expected to double by 2030 for an average mid-market CDC.

OEMs are beginning to plan for several years of support, both in software patches and bug fixes, and for delivering new added value features to the driving experience. “This support and feature roadmap requires a hardware and software architecture that supports the continuous updating of vehicles over time. OEMs need a system that accommodates quick, targeted updates by shipping vehicles with planned overhead in computing power, software containerization, and robust hypervisors. These can be accommodated by silicon vendors such as NVIDIA or Qualcomm with their suite of high-powered System-on-Chips (SoCs), along with hypervisor and software specialists such as Blackberry QNX. The ecosystem hasn’t fully adjusted to OTA updates in mixed-criticality systems like the digital cockpit domain controller yet, with most OEMs speculating about the level of computing power that is needed for several years of support and few going to their silicon and tier-one partners with roadmaps of planned features,” explains Abu Miah, Smart Mobility and Automotive Analyst at ABI Research.
The computing power of the CDC will increase significantly over time. The Tera Floating-Point Operations per Second (TFLOPS) of an average mid-market CDC is expected to rise from 1 TFLOPS in 2023 to 2.5 TFLOPS by 2030. Miah adds, “One of the primary drivers of this increase is the implementation of a larger number of higher resolution screens in the vehicle to accommodate new high-end gaming and video-on-demand features.”
Building a ‘future-proofed’ CDC is not as simple as throwing compute power at the vehicle. “OEMs, tier ones, and silicon vendors must all work toward an ecosystem of hardware and software agnosticism, modular architecture, and collaborative software development if they are to match customers’ expectations of updates, patches, and bug fixes from the consumer electronics space,” Miah concludes.
These findings are from ABI Research’s Future-Proofing Digital Cockpit Domain Controllers application analysis report. This report is part of the company’s Smart Mobility and Automotive research service, which includes research, data, and ABI Insights. Based on extensive primary interviews, Application Analysis reports present an in-depth analysis of key market trends and factors for a specific technology.
