Scope:
Recent distributed and intelligent trends in computing paradigms such as Tiny Machine Learning, Federated Learning, Mobile Edge Computing, Multi-access Edge Computing and Computational Offloading are under research, aiming to optimize 6G networks’ latency, computing complexity and resourceful utilization of bandwidth, thus giving rise to a potential research direction of distributed and Intelligent Edge Computing (IEC). This workshop invites researchers from industry and academia to share their recent findings and views on technical advances in IEC and distributed communications.
Topics of Interest:
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- IEC solutions for Beyond 5G (B5G) and 6G communication networks
- Distributed or collaborative intelligence
- Over-the-air (OTA) or online learning and inference
- AI based edge computing resource allocation and management
- Communication protocol design for IEC
- Security, privacy and trust in IEC
- Intelligent computation offloading
- Mobility management of edge computing devices
- Joint optimization of computing, network, and storage resources of edge devices
- Quality of Service (QoS) aware computation offloading in edge devices
- Applications for distributed IEC and communications (e.g., vehicles, UAVs, metaverse)
- Testbeds and simulation platforms for IEC
- Energy efficiency in IEC
- Latency or bandwidth management in IEC
- Limitations or challenges of distributed edge intelligence
- The combination of latest trends such as blockchain, big data, quantum communications, smart grid with edge computing
