  • The Second ACM/IEEE Symposium on Edge Computing October 12-14, 2017, San Jose, CA, USA
    SEC 2017 The Second ACM/IEEE Symposium on Edge Computing October 12-14, 2017, San Jose, CA, USA http://acm-ieee-sec.org/2017/ “Edge computing” is new paradigm in which the resources of a small data center are placed at the edge of the Internet, in close proximity to mobile devices, sensors, end users, and the emerging Internet of Things. Terms such as “cloudlets,” “micro data centers,” and “fog” have been used in the literature to refer to these small, edge- located data centers. They all represent counterpoints to the theme of consolidation and massive data centers that has dominated discourse in cloud computing. New challenges and opportunities arise as the consolidation of cloud computing meets the dispersion of edge computing. Building upon the success of inaugural SEC, the organizing committee is delighted to invite you to Symposium on Edge Computing 2017, to be held in San Jose, California.

  • Broader Impacts
    Maria Gorlatova, Princeton University: Broader Impacts BROADER IMPACTS Maria Gorlatova [email protected] Associate Research Scholar Princeton University My contributions and plans related to broader impacts fall under the categories of involvement in initiatives related to diversity and inclusion, ongoing and planned industry engagements, and plans to transform organizational practices with the developments in the Internet of Things. Diversity and Inclusion Initiatives I actively promote diversity and inclusion in my research group and within the broader scientific and technical communities, contributing to and leading multiple related initiatives. Aspects of my contributions to diversity have been recognized with a Google Anita Borg USA Fellowship, which is awarded yearly to only 25 students across all levels of studies and across all computing-related disciplines nation-wide, based on academic performance, leadership, and impact on the community of women in technology. I am contributing to and leading initiatives that create strong wide-reaching support networks between the members of under-represented groups. For instance, I was an invited participant in the MIT Rising Stars in EECS event that created a network of top graduate and post-doctoral women in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. I also participated in the Google Graduate Researchers of Diverse Backgrounds CS Forum, which brought together graduate students of diverse backgrounds from different parts of United States and Canada. I am also currently serving on the board of the field-specific Networking Networking Women (N2 Women) organization that develops and strengthens the community of female researchers in communications and computer networking. Near-term I will lead the development of networks between the members of under-represented groups who work in my core research areas, Internet of Things and fog and edge computing.

    Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata” Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile e Ingegneria Informatica Fog Computing Corso di Sistemi e Architetture per Big Data A.A. 2016/17 Valeria Cardellini The scenario • Connected devices are creating data at an exponentially growing rate, which will drive performance and network congestion challenges at the edge of infrastructure • Performance, security, bandwidth, reliability, and many other concerns that make cloud- only solutions impractical for many use cases Valeria Cardellini - SABD 2016/17 1 A possible solution • Move information processing and intelligence at the logical edge of the networks (“the cloud close to the ground”): many micro data centers located at the network edge Valeria Cardellini - SABD 2016/17 2 Fog Computing definitions • “Fog Computing is a highly virtualized platform that provides compute, storage, and networking services between end devices and traditional Cloud Computing Data Centers, typically, but not exclusively located at the edge of network.” (Bonomi et al., 2012) • “A horizontal, system-level architecture that distributes computing, storage, control and networking functions closer to the users along a cloud-to-thing continuum.” (OpenFog consortium, 2017) Valeria Cardellini - SABD 2016/17 3 What Fog is • An extension of the traditional cloud-based computing model where implementations of the architecture can reside in multiple layers of a networks’ topology • Preserves all the benefits of Cloud computing – Including containerization, virtualization, orchestration,

The aim is to reduce latency, ensure highly efficient networks operation as well as service delivery and offer an improved user experience. By extending computing closer to the data source, edge computing enables latency sensitive computing, offers greater business agility through better control and faster insights, lowers operating expenses, and results in more efficient network bandwidth support.

  • Knowledge Integration in Smart Factories
    Entry Knowledge Integration in Smart Factories Johannes Zenkert * , Christian Weber , Mareike Dornhöfer , Hasan Abu-Rasheed and Madjid Fathi Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Institute of Knowledge Based Systems and Knowledge Management, University of Siegen, 57076 Siegen, Germany; [email protected] (C.W.); [email protected] (M.D.); [email protected] (H.A.-R.); [email protected] (M.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Definition: Knowledge integration is well explained by the human–organization–technology (HOT) approach known from knowledge management. This approach contains the horizontal and vertical in- teraction and communication between employees, human-to-machine, but also machine-to-machine. Different organizational structures and processes are supported with the help of appropriate tech- nologies and suitable data processing and integration techniques. In a Smart Factory, manufacturing systems act largely autonomously on the basis of continuously collected data. The technical design concerns the networking of machines, their connectivity and the interaction between human and machine as well as machine-to-machine. Within a Smart Factory, machines can be considered as intelligent manufacturing systems. Such manufacturing systems can autonomously adapt to events through the ability to intelligently analyze data and act as adaptive manufacturing systems that consider changes in production, the supply chain and customer requirements. Inter-connected physical devices, sensors, actuators, and controllers form the building block of the Smart Factory, which is called the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT uses different data processing solutions, such as Citation: Zenkert, J.; Weber, C.; cloud computing, fog computing, or edge computing, to fuse and process data.
