Link to flyer with tentative schedule is here
|
This conference is organized under the banner of the PHM Society and delivers the quality engagement you are accustomed to. We will bring together the global community of PHM experts from industry, academia, and government in diverse application areas, such as, but not limited to, energy, aerospace, transportation, automotive, human health & performance, smart manufacturing, and industry AI. In addition to technical paper sessions, the conference will also feature workshops, technical demonstrations, expert panel sessions on a plurality of critical issues and applications, a doctoral symposium, Keynote and Luminary speakers, and tutorials free to all registrants. A PHM data analysis competition will be held before the conference and the results will be presented during the conference. Leading companies and research institutions will exhibit their products and demonstrate their technologies during the event. Several social events will round up the program by providing opportunities for participants to connect and network with colleagues, including a high-quality career fair and diversity outreach & networking event. The PHM Society will also offer separate, dedicated short courses focused on fundamental PHM concepts and techniques before the start of the main conference. A data analytics challenge will be held before the conference, and then presented at the conference.

CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS: TECHNICAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING FOR MAINTENANCE WORKSHOP
Lead: Michael Brundage, NIST
The goal of the event is to bring together members of the PHM community to discuss ongoing and future directions for text analysis of technical data, including data captured from maintenance-related events and activities. By improving analysis of their maintenance text data, PHM practitioners can enhance their maintenance operations through a deeper understanding of their maintenance processes. Attendees are expected to benefit by learning new tools and analysis techniques for labelling and analyzing text-based documents to improve decision making and continuous improvement.
This workshop is expected to feature a mixture of panels, brainstorming sessions and software tool demonstrations from experts in creating and implementing Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools and workflows. This domain is referred to as Technical Language Processing (TLP). It is expected that this event will be documented in a summary report to discuss best practices, lessons learned, challenges, and needs for performing TLP workflows on real, industrial data. The workshop will be organized in the areas of:
- TLP Tools – Discussions and demonstrations on current tools and needs for future tools
- TLP Research – Discussions around TLP research in academia, government, and industry
- TLP use cases for improving PHM – Presentations on how TLP has improved maintenance procedures in industry
- Industry Data – Discussions around the types of data that are being collected by maintainers and the needs of researchers for future data

CALL FOR PANEL SESSION CHAIRS
A panel session chair will moderate panel discussions with other speakers who have expertise in specific topics. Each panelist will provide remarks for no longer than 7 minutes and then participate in a Q&A session with the audience. Ideas for new panels are also welcome. For someone interested in leading a panel session, please contact Brian Weiss at panels@phmconference.org.
Prospective panel topics include, but are not limited to:
- DoD/Fielded Systems
- Qualifying Data and Data Use – Integrity, Models, and Ownership
- PHM for Manufacturing: Assessing Operations to Advance PHM Capabilities
- Unlocking the Potential of Automotive PHM
- Nuclear Energy
- Wind Energy
- Predictions of Rare Events in very Complex Systems

CALL FOR TUTORIAL SPEAKERS
The PHM 2021 Conference is planning to offer a set of tutorials that are providing coverage of topics of interest to the PHM audience. The tutorials are meant to provide a learning experience to the audience by giving a comprehensive introduction to the particular topic. Proposed tutorials need to address the interests of a varied audience: beginners, developers, designers, researchers, practitioners, and decision makers who wish to learn a given aspect of prognostic health management. For more information or to volunteer as a speaker, please contact Kai Goebel at tutorials@phmconference.org.
Tutorial Topics of Interest include (but are not limited to):
● Asset Health Management
● CBM Policies
● Cost-Benefit Analysis
● Diagnosis and Prognosis
● Life Cycle and Risk Management Methodologies
● PHM System Design and Engineering
● Standards and Methodologies
● Deep Learning
And other advanced topics.
|
CALL FOR TECHNOLOGY DEMONSTRATIONS & PRODUCT SHOWCASE PRESENTATIONS
The PHM Society invites sponsors to show off their monitoring, diagnostic, and/or prognostic engineering approaches through Technology Demonstrations and the Product Showcase Presentations.
The concept of the Technology Demonstrations is to offer a true “hands-on” learning experience to conference attendees. Multiple demonstrations will be given as brief tutorials to small groups, scheduled over a two-day period. Each demo will last for 30 – 60 minutes, where attendees will be encouraged to actively participate.
The Product Showcase track offers the opportunity for companies to advertise their products and/or services to conference attendees. Showcase presenters are provided a 10-minute timeslot to give marketing presentations via computer/table, projector, and microphone. Showcase presentations are not intended to be interactive and participants are encouraged to network with audience members after their showcase.
|
Tech Demo & Product Showcase Topics of Interest:
- Certification and Validation Techniques for Health Management Applications
- Fielded Prognostic or Advanced Diagnostic Systems
- Innovative System Maintenance Approaches
- Monitoring, Diagnostic, and/or Prognostic Hardware/Software Technologies
- Rapid Aging Testing and Analysis Techniques
- Sensors and Sensor Integration for PHM
- System Identification Processes to Support PHM Goals
For more information on either the Technology Demonstrations or the Product Showcase Presentations, please contact Laurel Frediani and Derek DeVries at techdemos@phmconference.org.
Please Note: Demonstration/presentation hardware, software, concepts, material, data, etc., must be cleared for public release prior to the conference.

CALL FOR DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM APPLICATIONS
The PHM Society Doctoral Symposium will be held as a workshop on Monday, November 1. Full-time students are invited to submit their thesis ideas to the Doctoral Symposium. It provides an opportunity for graduate students to present their interests and plans at a formative stage in their research. The students will receive structured guidance from a panel of distinguished researchers as well as comments from conference participants and fellow students in a collegial setting. For more information, please contact Jamie Coble and Bin Zhang at ds@phmconference.org.
