摘要:
Big data, data mining, machine learning, in-line analytics, smart lab, imaging, artificial intelligence, e-health, and Analytics 4.0 have become keywords in Analytical Chemistry, and have been considered in many research articles in the journal Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry (ABC) last year. In recent issues of ABC, these concepts have also been dealt with in an editorial [1] and a spotlight [2]. Based on the increased relevance of these new developments in analytics, the Analytical Chemistry Division of the GDCh (German Chemical Society) and ABC will organize four sessions at analytica 2020, covering these concepts (and much more) on March 31 and April 1. Analytica 2020 in Munich (March 31-April 3, 2020) has a multidisciplinary future- and practice-oriented scientific program presented by renowned international scientists and experts in these fields. It offers the perfect platform to bring users, manufacturers, and researchers together to discuss future concepts in measurement techniques, data handling, metadata, and protocols for process and analytics, as well as communications protocols, such as OPC-UA (Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture). Analytica 2020 offers the opportunity to collect and provide information in areas usually presented only at specialized meetings and conferences, in order to tackle analytics issues of the next decade. Five Editors of ABC and representatives of the Analytical Chemistry Division of the GDCh will participate.
