Edge computing is one of the most recent approaches towards the extension of cloud computing capabilities to the edges of the network. It combines elements of Information Technology (IT) and telecommunication networking, hence extending cloud computing capabilities and IT services to the edges of cellular networks. This minimizes network congestion and also improves the overall performance of the network.
The main idea of edge computing is bringing the cloud processing, storage and caching closer to the edge of the network as well as to the users. Other similar approaches are Cloudlets, Fog, Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), as well as their hybrids. Edge computing provides many advantages, such as improved QoS (lower latency, higher throughput), improved security and privacy, improved scalability and resource-efficiency as well as improved management through virtualization. Furthermore, ubiquitous ultra-broadband, virtually zero latency and gigabit experience will be the key defining features of beyond 5G networks to enable new services. The extreme capacity and performance demands of future mobile networks will necessitate major changes in the way we produce and utilize digital services. Along with SDN (Software Defined Networks) and NFV (Network Function Virtualization) concepts, enabling technologies such as cloud computing and edge computing become pertinent towards the evolution to future mobile networks. The heterogeneity of future mobile services and connected devices will lead to the challenge of holistic design of a robust edge computing system. Among them, security and resource efficiency are identified as key challenges. The “Secure and Resource-Efficient Edge Computing 2017" (SecureEdge 2017) aims at crossroads between scientists, researchers, practitioners and students from diverse domains in edge computing research. The workshop aims at attracting contributions of secure and resource efficient design that can support existing and future applications. Researchers are encouraged to submit original research contributions in all major areas, which include, but not limited to: Theoretical analysis for edge computing systems Edge computing architectures and solution design patterns Virtualization for edge computing systems and networking Modeling and performance analysis for edge computing Service provisioning and migration in edge computing/li) Multimedia service provisioning on edge computing Peer-to-Peer (P2P) in edge computing Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) and Fog Computing Edge computing for Internet of Things (IoT) Cognitive Edge computing and the Blockchain Virtual Private LAN Services in edge computing Mobile edge cloud system and network design Storage, data, and analytics for edge computing design and networking Software Defined Networking (SDN) for edge computing Network Function Virtualization (NFV) for edge computing Sensor network key management protocols Privacy-preserving data processing Identity-defined networking MEC security architectures for 5G Networks Security and privacy management for edge cloud systems Security requirements and security principles in edge computing Authentication and access management in edge computing Edge computing security business and technical use cases Security auditing and security monitoring Regulatory impacts on security Resilience, fault tolerance in edge computing Performance optimization for edge computing applications Green edge computing systems and networking Scalability, performance, and load balance Real-time resource reporting and monitoring for edge computing management Quality of service on edge computing applications, including reliability, availability Validations and Testbeds Surveys on edge computing systems Important Dates Paper submission deadline: 15 April, 2017 Internal Reviews to be completed: 15 May, 2017 Author notification: 10 June, 2017 Camera-ready and Registration: 18 June, 2017 Conference datas: 21-23 August, 2017 Submission Instructions Papers submitted to SecureEdge 2017 should be written in English conforming to the IEEE Conference Proceedings Format (8.5" x 11", two-column). The paper should be submitted through the EasyChair paper submission system at the Symposium website (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=secureedge2017). The length of the papers should not exceed 6 pages + 2 pages for over length charges. Accepted and presented papers will be included into the IEEE Conference Proceedings published by IEEE CS CPS and submitted to IEEE Xplore and CSDL. Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are requested to register and present their work at the conference, otherwise their papers will be removed from the digital libraries of IEEE CS after the conference. Distinguished papers presented at the conference, after further revision, will be recommended to special issues of reputable SCI/EI-indexed journals. Submitting a paper to SecureEdge 2017 means that, if the paper is accepted, at least one author should attend the Workshop and present the paper. |
