A Glimpse of the Future: The 62nd PTTI Systems & Applications Meeting November 2030

Leo A. Mallette and James C. Camparo

Abstract:	If the PTTI Systems & Applications Meeting is to thrive and grow, our community needs to consider the direction this conference should take as the 21st century proceeds. At a conference workshop, attendees attempted to assess our community’s optimal appearance 20 years from now, and to develop plans to put the PTTI conference on a path to that future. Here, we review the major ideas brought up at the workshop. Specifically, after a brief review of some of the topics that have been of interest to the PTTI community over the past 20 years, attendees were asked to break into groups and brainstorm various views of a PTTI future. The task of these groups was threefold: 1) to predict the session and paper titles for the 62nd Annual PTTI Meeting – to be held in November 2030, 2) to list the impediments that could thwart realization of that conference, and 3) to imagine mitigation strategies that could remove those impediments. Junior and senior members of each group volunteered to further explore these ideas, and to present their thoughts/findings at next year’s PTTI conference.
