The Multitouchpoint Concept
Your Customized Sessions at Smart Automotive Variantcon 2015
Icebreaker Session
Live Tech Take
Up to 6 parallel round tables that take place on the evening before
the official conference kick off. The aim is to create a relaxed
atmosphere for people to warm up, start networking and exchanging
ideas to ease into the next 2 days of intense learning. Dress code:
business casual.
Delegates and solution providers have the chance to actively
participate in product and service demos taking place on the expo
floor. Interact directly with technologies that you are interested in
and ask your questions on the spot.
Challenge your Peers Session
Up to 8 parallel round table discussions, where you can discuss your
very own challenges and respond to issues highlighted by the
audience in advance. Meet with colleagues who are facing similar
issues and take advantage of this setting to talk about experiences
and brainstorm potential solutions.
Training Session
This workshop like environment allows you to be guided through
specific topics from experts in the field in small groups where your
questions and issues will find an applicable solution to take home.
Lunch Session
In the lunch break you have the chance to be part of one of the
offered briefings designed to allow you to delve deeper on specific
topics in a smaller group discussion format.
BarCamp
You know what you need? Or have a specific question you want to
ask? Then bring your query into the event programme and let
everyone present decide if this issue is of interest to a number of
people to be discussed. These discussion rounds allow you to
develop roadmaps, strategic plans, proof of concept studies and
project scenarios together with other industry experts
Comment Cards
Networking Dinner
Right after each presentation you still have everything fresh in your
mind. This is exactly what will help fruitful discussions and opinion
exchange. Take a moment and note down your thoughts on one of
the provided comment cards. We will collect them at each break and
pin them on walls in the networking area for further discussion
during the breaks. Always a hit at events.
To round up a great day of learning and networking, a dinner is
always a good option. Allow yourself to wind down, enjoy great food
and drink in a relaxed atmosphere to absorb all the new stimulations
from the day. The programme includes great entertainment,
interesting and thought provoking evening keynotes or award
ceremonies.

Icebreaker SESSION
Pre-conference drinks on Sunday evening to break the ice and get the show on the road. This session includes “Icebreaker” Roundtables in a
relaxed location in the heart of Berlin.
Icebreaker Roundtable
Individualisation versus Standardisation – which path to follow
Martin Neff, Complexity Manager, Audi AG / Germany
Icebreaker Roundtable
In search of the perfect abstractions for taming variant complexity
● Complexity management and variant management go hand in hand. Every aspect of automotive engineering contributes its share of both
complexity and variation.
● Which aspects or engineering phases or artifacts introduce the most complexity, why, and what form does that complexity take?
● What unifying abstractions can be used to provide a common language to express the plethora of ways that products vary?
● Can features — a concept at the core of modern Product Line Engineering — be that lingua franca?
Dr. Paul Clements, Vice President of Customer Success, BigLever Software / USA
Icebreaker Roundtable
Siri for Product / Variant Managers
● Think about having something like Apple‘s Siri or Microsoft‘s Cortana for your job in product / variant management. What questions would
you like to ask to your „Variant Siri“, e.g., „Which are the least valuable variants“?
● What kind of instructions would you like to give to your Variant Siri, what kind of tasks should she be able to fulfil?
● Which of these questions and instructions can be answered / done by software now or in 3-5 years or never?

Mitigating Divergence: Findings from the MIT Commonality Study
● Presenting results of MIT Commonality Study which shows that a many firms fail to achieve their sharing targets, a phenomena called
divergence
● I dentifying acceptable and unacceptable drivers of divergence
● Reviewing strategies for managing commonality trades: how do you understand what variety is needed, how do you
screen opportunities to add new variants, how do automotive firms value the benefits of commonality that can be traded?
● Valuation of indirect and distributed savings

● C onsistent process for running commonality trades
Dr. Bruce G. Cameron, Founder, Cameron Industries & Director, System Architecture Lab –
Department of Engineering Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology / USA
9:35 Case Study

Agenda overview
10:10 Solution Study
Variants Management: OEM vs. Suppliers – Different views of the same picture
● Common view: growing complexity is one of the biggest challenges
OEM:
● Increasing numbers of models and variants is a prerequisite for market success
● Outsourcing as a strategy to solve problems like increasing efforts
● Detailed knowledge about costs is reduced to supplier’s price table
Suppliers:
● Increasing pressure by increasing variants but no influence on decisions
● Difficulty of convincing clients of real variant costs
● Exotic variants often sponsored by variants with high volume
● Is there a chance for a common view?
Dr.-Ing. Klaus Alders, Senior Manager, STAUFEN AG / Germany
10:45Refreshment Break with
Networking Zone
11:15 Case Study
Seamless Variant Management
● Feature based variant handling of single software artifacts is frequently established in industry
● H owever, as variability in subsequent development artifacts often depends on each other, isolated variant management does not tap
the full potential of variant management
● Presenting an approach for seamless variant handling that covers and connects the variability of all artifacts evolving from a standard
development process like the V model
● T he underlying concept was developed in the BMBF-funded research project SPES_XT. It was evaluated successfully by applying it
to artifacts that were derived from real world examples in the area of driver assistance systems at Daimler AG
● A n important building block of the seamless variant handling concept is the Variability Exchange Language (VEL), that allows for
integrating artifacts and tools based on a standardized method
Peter Manhart, Head of Software Variant Management, Daimler AG / Germany
11:50 Case Study
Ruling Complexity Through Dynamic Data Linking
Smart Products – Challenges for the PLM Strategy and Process Design
● Identifying the main challenges caused by the rapid traditional products into cyber-physical systems or products

● C onclusion and outlook
Dr. Thomas Kamps, Managing Director/CEO, CONWEAVER GmbH / Germany
12:25 Case Study
Complexity Management in the Heavy Truck Industry
● Presenting the complexity challenges in the truck industry
● G iving concrete examples of solutions to the complexity problems:
