DESCRIPTION:IEA: A Test Data Analytic Platform via Natural-Language-to-Code
 \n\nThe Intelligent Engineering Assistant (IEA) was first introduced in 20
 18 as an early attempt to apply AI-driven automation to post-silicon test 
 engineering. Since then\, the rapid evolution of Large Language Models (LL
 Ms) has profoundly shaped IEA’s trajectory. With each new generation of 
 LLMs offering stronger reasoning and programming capabilities\, IEA has un
 dergone fundamental architectural redesigns to take advantage of these adv
 ances. In 2025\, IEA is re-architected once again—this time to leverage 
 the emerging power of high-quality code generation as a central mechanism 
 for engineering productivity. Over the past five months\, we deployed the 
 latest IEA in an industrial environment. This deployment has transformed I
 EA from a research concept into a production-grade platform that measurabl
 y improves productivity and promotes broad cross-team collaboration. The 2
 025 IEA introduces a strengthened grounding strategy that aligns natural-l
 anguage prompts with real engineering context. The system performs dynamic
  grounding using data tables\, enabling IEA to interpret intent with direc
 t access to datasets. Building on these capabilities\, IEA automatically g
 enerates analytic Python code tailored to user prompts\, allowing engineer
 s to rapidly validate hypotheses and iterate on workflows. Drawing from ou
 r deployment experience\, we discuss observed shifts in engineering practi
 ce\, the architectural insights gained throughout IEA’s evolution\, and 
 lessons learned from integrating LLM-based automation into complex industr
 ial environments.\n\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE Future Networks AI/ML Working G
