Ichirou Iida, Fujitsu Laboratories

 Q&A/Discussion(summary)Lively discussions have been made with young
participants.
-(1-1) How do we make an innovation? How
we can evaluate an innovation at the starting
point and on the halfway?
 An innovation is not made by anindividual but by a team. Noticing a newvalue/UX1 around fields and evaluating
the value by a community realizes theinnovation.

user experience18

Prof. Shuichi Inada, the University of Tokyo It’s an intuition at first. We need a manager with good insight. How tomonetize the innovation will be unveiled on the way.

-(1-2) What was the difficult part for the
OneM2M standardization? How does auniversity research make a relationshipwith the standardization?
 OneM2M standardization was
difficult because each SDO hasvarious opinions, but we've beenproceeding steadily and tenaciously.
 So far the standardization has arelationship with the business or
Mr. Norikazu Yamasaki, KDDI
companies mostly. University
research contributions were not many. But at ITU-T, university research
results are included in the standard. I think it is a new movement to bepracticed widely.

-(1-3) How do you know the new needs ofthe field doing IoT
 It’s a very difficult problem. We
often talk with customers in the field
who are not familiar with ICT to find
new needs and ideas.

Dr. Taizo Kinoshita, Hitachi-(1-4) When will the Hyper-connected
cloud be realized? How do you choose a research theme?
 Maybe in 2-3years. There are somedifficulties to be solved such as
security, an intelligent
context-aware engine forhuman-centric services, highperformance of Web based systemand so on.
 I chose subjects according to myinterest. I encourage young
researchers to come up with wild
new ideas.
Dr. Ichirou Iida, Fujitsu

 Q&A/Discussion(summary)
Following the 3 talks, several topics were discussed in the panel Q&A.
- It was questioned that accident responsibility judgements in self-driving car traffic
would be difficult.
 Answered, it would be also possible to solve the problems with gaining massive
volume of analytical data through the event. To realize safety self-driving cars, it isalso important to introduce self-leaning software technologies.

Mr. Tooru Futami, Nissan

Mr. Masatoshi Abo, DENSO

20

- It was claimed that not only self-driving cars but solutions combining several mobility
systems such as cars, buses and trains are mostly relevant, especially for future aging
society.
 Everyone agreed and ICT and political/industrial collaboration will be needed torealize such solutions.
- It is worried if the social tolerances level would be enough for accepting self-drivingcars.
 Japanese people are very conservative but it could be accepted with showing
statistically safe.

Special session- How can IEEE provide its value to young professionals in Japan -Organizer: Hidenobu Harasaki, Secretary, IEEE Tokyo section/NECProgram
May 15 16:10-17:30

This special session is schedule after special invited talk by Dr. Kyuma and just before thejoint reception with IEEE Student Branch Leadership Training Workshop attendees. The
objective of the session is to present how IEEE can provide its value to young professionals
in Japan.
Speakers are:
 Prof. Toshio Fukuda, Chair, IEEE MGA SD&EA,
 Prof. Tomonori Aoyama, Chair, IEEE Japan Council
 Dr. Yukou Mochida, Chair, Industry Promotion Committee, IEEE Japan Council
 Dr. Kojiro Nishimiya, Chair, Young Profession Affinity Group, IEEE Tokyo section.

Prof. Tomonori Aoyama, Chair, Japan Council

-Dr. Mochida presented the workshop on
Japanese Industry Promotion in November
2014 and Industry Promotion Committee
activities in 2015 that includes establishingin-house IEEE network.

Dr. Yukou Mochida, Chair, IPC, JC-

Dr. Nishimiya presented how he enjoyed hisIEEE volunteer works and concluded that thevalue of IEEE for him is the network withdifferent field (society) and various groups,
such as Life member, Student Branches,
Women in Engineering, and Young
Professionals.

Dr. Kojiro Nishimiya, Chair, YP, Tokyo Section

 Q&A/Panel Discussion(summary)-

A comment from floor was that IEEE should have more contact points with industry.
The working engineers believe IEEE is a professional society that PhD members only.
IEEE Standardization seems to the only window to working engineers of the industries.

-

A question was raised from floor that what IEEE members in the U.S industry are doingin IEEE, writing technical papers or other activities.
 Prof. Fukuda replied that IEEE members in U.S. industry are creating andmaintaining the human networks to seek career opportunity and job security. Dr.
Mochida added the comment that collaboration with other technical fields ofother companies is more important, prior to solving complicated social problems
and exploring needs.

-

A retied person from floor pointed out that he enjoyed IEEE Xplore digital library when
he was working for IBM, but he became a member to access the library after25

retirement to watch the new technologies. The value of the IEEE is a global network ofhuman and technical paper resources.
-

Working engineers in big companies can use IEEE Xplore with corporate membership.
They don’t have any incentive to become IEEE member to use IEEE Xplore.

-

Last question was raised by Prof. Nishihara from floor to Dr. Nishimiya. Once a very
active small group such as Young Profession Affinity Group is formed, it might be abarrier to invite a new member to the group. Is this kind of problem identified?
 Dr. Nishimiya replied half members of YP affinity group are graduates of student
branches. Therefore, university students
that the university does not have IEEE
student branch may be difficult to startworking with YP. Prof. Nishihara
pointed out there is missing affinity
group for middle ages. YP is for young
members and LMAG is senior members.
Prof. Fukuda finally pointed out that
there might be a barrier to invite new
supporting companies to the current
eight companies.

3-2 Concept of Immersive Telepresence “Kirari !”Katsuhiko Kawazoe, NTT
3-3 “Immersive experience”, “Information accessibility”, and "Sense ofparticipation"
Keiichiro Shimada, SONY

Dr. Toru Kuroda, NHK presented NHK 8K super
Hi-Vision technology status and its future plan.
They have been developed 8K, broadcasting
system which provides 7680x4320, 16 times
more resolution than HD TV. They verified anddemonstrated this system as the 8K public
viewing events of London Olympic Games in2012 and Brazil World Cup games in 2014. Thisis the ultimate TV broadcasting system. NHK
will start the commercial broadcasting service
in 2018.

Dr. Toru Kuroda, NHK

Dr. Kawazoe presented their new challenges for creating new immersive telepresence
system for various kinds of media presentation methods. ``Kirai!''the concept system
was presented by their promotion video. Their idea is to combine cyber space andphysical space to re-create the remote stadium in the theater. In their promotion
system, the table tennis game is recreated with the video projected players and thereal table in the theater. This gives you the feeling of ``you-are-there'' at any places.
32

-Dr. Shimada, SONY gave us another look of using video presentation. He presented his
ideal future video environment in one’s life. Displays will be available anywhere in
future so any things can be visualized or digitized. If your home has video walls, you
can get digitized interior and exterior so changing your room and the view throughthe windows every day. He summarized that three aspects, immersive, easy to accessinformation and organizing community are enhanced by 4K/8K technologies.

-

In the discussion session, immersive or reality is good for improving user experience?
Brightness is another metric for extending
video technologies. Analog technology is stillneeded in digital era. Home or theatre, which
is better to see Opera! How can we get morevalue when we get 4K TV set? And more topics
were discussed. The session was concluded by
the messages for younger generation, which
are to try, to believe your (younger) feeling,
and to have more passion. We had very
positive feedbacks from attendees after thesession, so this session was great success.

Dr. Shimano presented Open Source Software activities toward networking standard.

 Q&A/Discussion(summary)-

A question from floor was what kind of value will be provided to attendees instandardization and open source software activities.
 ITU-T will be a good place to establish international coordination. IEEE
standardization can be enjoyed to conquer other country and/or other company.

-

Another question was raised from floor on important attitudes for standardization
attendees.
 Answers are faithfulness, fairness and not to lie.

-

A question was raised on which is the winner between 5G vs. WiFi in the future. Will
WiFi die?
34

 More than 70% of date traffic is currently conveyed by WiFi.
-

Another question was how we can utilize coffee break.
 You can spend coffee break for technical discussion, negotiation, business card
collection, talking with non-Japanese attendees.

-

A question from floor was raised on university professor’s standardization and open
source software development.
 Contributions for standardization community are not counted as technical journal
papers. Since open source software development is a kind of research activities,
NTT can continue to work on the development while the research team survives.
