Huawei Systems Software Innovations Summit 2021
30th – 31st March 2021

Huawei is committed to bring digital to every person, home and organization for a fully-connected intelligent world. To harness the true benefits of 5G, AI, and Cloud, the operating system that underpins the foundation of these technologies must successfully resolve the challenges that arise from the need to support a rich variety of business scenarios on thousands of heterogeneous devices. Huawei aims to foster the open-minded discussion of industry challenges with its academic and industrial partners.

 

Huawei European Research Institute and Central Software Institute together invite collaboration partners and the research community to join the two-day open access online conference focusing on the latest research and development in operating systems, formal verification of software correctness, computer architectures and related topics – innovations which will build the future mission-critical systems.

 

The scope of the conference is based on publically available information and the presentations are open to all participants (external experts and Huawei colleagues). The Attendees include professors and experts coming from our partners in Europe and employees from Huawei Dresden Research Center. The sponsor of the Huawei Systems Software Innovations Summit 2021 is Huawei Dresden Research Center.
