Note that other speaking slots may be of traditional presentation or workshop type.  Those are not covered here.

An RoE presentation Return-of-experience presentation (real-life or production experience presentation) is a special multi-company format for the AMM presentations, focused around a shared topicWhereas most Many project presentations at an AMM explain the outcomes and plans of and outcomes results of collaborative projects . and thus they present a consensus, this formed consensus.  The RoE format is rather set up for companies to be able to bring more of a unique focusgive their own unique viewpoint.


We have created this format of presentation for a number of reasons:

  1. We have many requests for a speaking opportunities and instead of saying no to companies, we want to give the opportunity to many, with shorter time slots.  At the same time we are still selective, so that presentations that can give the an interesting, relevant, and diverse mix of viewpoints.
  2. The short talk format should enable getting to the core of things quickly. It will keep the content lively and interesting for the audience.
  3. Much like a panel discussion, but here set up as separate speaking slots instead, we expect each speaker to be able to provide a unique viewpoint opinion on the subject matter.  The combination will build a wide understanding for the audience and for our shared collaborative ecosystem, as well as keep things very interesting for the audience.

(Once filled in, this is useful to send to speakers in their confirmation email)

Shared topic:  Blueprint for ...
Abstract:
  A common abstract describing the topic / problem statement which companies will bring multiple viewpoints on.

Day and Time (for the shared session): 

List of speaking companies: (Inform all speakers which other companies are part of this block).

Expected length and setup:  E.g. 3 Companies,  1 hour = 18 minutes dedicated to your company, all inclusive, with 2 minutes switching time.

Time schedule breakdown:  Write a strict division of time for each time block.   20-30 minutes is appropriate.  Speakers should be well prepared and stick to the allotted time. 
When planning note the required time for switching speakers such as 2 minutes for example.  If the time is particularly short and/or in a plenary setup, it may be appropriate to avoid Q&A for these sessions – see below.

...

In order to make this format successful and fair there should be a balance between providing guidelines for the type of presentation we want all companies to giveprefer, while still giving companies a lot of freedom to present their own viewpoint, so that the .  The diversity of input provides will provide the greatest sum of parts when looking at the Return-of-experience topic presentation block as a whole.

  1. Keep If it's a short time slot, keep corporate introductions and similar to a minimum or skip, in the interest of time.  Get to the meat of thingsthe topic.
  2. Present a the technical challenge in question (and if the talk abstract already presents it, this too can be short, but you may might prefer to focus on highlight a particular aspect)
  3. Then present solutions.  Do not be afraid to be opinionated here, since these RoE sessions are for "several companies unique view on a subject".
  4. We have a technical audience and this is not a "business track".  Some tips:
    1. Use You can use the opportunity to describe different solution approaches (if you have experience trying them),several possible approaches
    2. Include include criteria for choosing one method over another, whether based on practical tryouts, or on theoretical reasoning,
    3. ... and try to include hard technical data, which is useful to guide a technically minded audience: Memory   Measurements, statistics, memory footprint, size, lines of code, performance benchmarks, and so on. 
    4. Finally, including negative experiences, mistakes, or reasons why an alternative did not work out, is also extremely useful for everyone.  While that requires courage, please Please remember that these sessions are about sharing of real-world experience!
  5. RoE should when possible try to describe When possible RoE focuses on production experience.  If you have experience applicable, mention experiences from putting your ideas the solution into actual car production, make sure to show this.  If you don't, then of course you will rather present your opinion of how things should be done, and then it's rather your experience from evaluating ideas.production cars. 
  6. Finally your company is absolutely of course free to take this opportunity to mention a solution you may have in your portfolio (i.e. a solution to the presented challenge, not other irrelevant products).  As you can see above , the presentation is not expected to be a plain "sales pitch".  It  – it ought to explain technical rationale for the offered product, and the rest of the presentation material should overall add to the shared body of technical knowledge.
  7. While considering There is often a single shared abstract, but while considering that description and the above tips, you may still interpret the topic quite freely. We are grouping together diverse aspects in this session and as you can see, the abstract for this session is a shared one.  But different speakers will have different things they feel are important to highlight and if you are presenting something on the boundary of the presnted topic, that's OK!  We selected your company for a reason.
  8. If the shared abstract completely totally does not match your speaking intentions at all, just   let us know , but be aware there is some flexibility built in.and we should discuss it.
  9. There Finally, there might not be time for Q&A, but in many AMM setups for some topics we have a related workshop time in which , where we can follow up on what was presented .  That is where most audience/participant discussion is expected to happen.
    Letwith audience interaction (note there is a schedule for each workshop, so make sure there is time planned for this). 
    To unify the presenters' approach, let's use this guideline for speaker slot length:
    * =< 20 minutes minutes  –> no Q&A
    * more than 20 minutes >20 minutes**  -> optional Q&A, speaker decides (but stay within alotted allotted time)

** Note, for the 2019 Spring AMM in Munich, the speaking slots are 30 minutes.

Slidedeck Template

  • Since RoE is set up for companies to bring their own unique viewpoint, you should use your own company slide deck template.
    (other presentations such as project results and workshops shall use a consistent GENIVI template: see here (Please note there may be a graphical update of this soon)
  • The presentation template should be prepared for 16:9 aspect ratio
