| 9:50-10:00 | Welcome |
| 10:00-11:00 | Invited Talk: Carsten Sinz Neuro-Symbolic AI for the Lifecycle of Configurable Products Configurable products do not stop being configuration problems once they are sold: throughout engineering, production, operation, maintenance, and evolution, their configuration changes while remaining subject to complex technical and business constraints. We explore how neuro-symbolic AI can combine the flexibility of LLMs and agentic AI with explicit product knowledge, constraints, and solver-based reasoning to support trustworthy decisions across this lifecycle. |
