Kevin is a research skills and enterprise consultant working with HEIs

and industries in the UK and Europe. He has over 25 years of experienceworking in industry in the areas of photonics and telecommunications.

He has published and presented his research on creative thinkinginnovation, problem solving and the limitations of idea-generation in

groups at various conferences and publications. At this ChallengeWorkshop, Kevin will facilitate a session to encourage participants tocreatively think of the challenges around the topics of systems and

infrastructure of the transport for the future by generating newquestions and approaching perceived knowledge from new angles. This

session aims to be both informative and engaging.

Facilitator-Dr Kevin Byron

Connected and autonomous vehicles (CAV) offer thepromise of increased efficiency of use of the UK's transportnetwork, and of an associated improvement of the travellerexperience. This workshop brings together key players from

industry, the public sector and academia to distill thechallenges in progressing the benefits of CAV, and to scopefuture research to overcome these challenges.The workshopwill be technically focused, with keynote speakers covering

the range of CAV issues, followed by a professionallyfacilitated workshop. It is jointly hosted by TICS (Sheffield

University’s partnership with the Transport SystemsCatapult) and the CommNet2 EPSRC network project.
