4th Workshop on Edge Intelligence and Computing for IoT Communications and Applications

Scope

Nowadays, billions of IoT devices, e.g., sensors and RFIDs, arise around us providing not only computing-intensive, but also delay-sensitive services, ranging from augmented/virtual realities to distributed data analysis and artificial intelligence. Unfortunately, in many application scenarios, the low response latency for IoT services is achieved at the cost of computing-complexity that exceeds bz far the capabilities of IoT devices. To feed this trend, multiple computing paradigms emerge, such as mobile transparent computing, edge computing, fog computing, and big data analytics based framework. These paradigms employ more resourceful edge devices, e.g., small-scale servers, smart phones and laptops, to assist the low-end IoT devices. By offloading the computing-intensive tasks to the edge devices, it is expected to converge the data collection at IoT devices and the data processing at edge devices to provision computing-intensive and delay-sensitive services.

However, lots of issues remain in the application of edge computing which impedes its flourishing in IoTs. This workshop will solicit original research and practical contributions which advance the computing offloading and edge intelligence regarding the architecture, technologies, and applications. Surveys and state-of-the-art tutorials are also considered.

The 4th International EAI Workshop on Edge Intelligence and Computing for IoT Communications and Applications workshop aims to bring together active researchers in this field to share their timely and solid works on Edge Intelligence and Computing for IoT Communications and Applications. Through this forum, it is expected to provide a comprehensive overview of this topic and inspire more valuable research orientations.

Topics include, but are not limited to the following research topics:

  • Architecture design for edge computing and intelligence in IoTs
  • Data-driven energy consumption and delay model of edge computing in IoTs
