Printed on acid-free paper Springer International Publishing AG Switzerland is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) Preface The 30th anniversary of the International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences (ISCIS) series, which have regularly over this long period of time brought together Computer Scientists from around the world and from Turkey, was held at Imperial College London, UK during 21–24 September 2015. This year the conference attracted 82 submissions from 21 countries—with contributions coming mostly from Europe, America and the Far East—out of which 39 carefully refereed proposals were selected, along with two Invited Papers, for inclusion in the proceedings. Several other Invited Papers were presented orally. In addition to the papers that are contained in these proceedings, the symposium was preceded by a conference comprising some 50 keynote and invited presenta- tions in honour of Prof. Erol Gelenbe, who started ISCIS back in 1986, and kept it going constantly with the help of several colleagues from Europe and Turkey. This volume provides a compact yet broad view of recent developments in the Computer and Information sciences, and covers exciting research areas in the field including Green and Cloud computing, Performance Modelling, Cybersecurity, Big Data, and Smart Algorithm design for computer, biological and chemical systems. This symposium also highlights recent results from the EU FP7 NEMESYS Project. We are very grateful to the authors of all of the submitted papers, and to the authors of accepted papers, for their contributions, and to the technical programme committee members who each evaluated several papers, without whom this exciting programme would not have been possible.

All but three of the fourteen papers presented here were written by his students and descendants. These papers are centered on probability models related to computer systems and networks, an area where Erol plays a pioneering role in which he remains very active with many innovations and new directions that he has introduced in the last ten or twelve years. We first briefly review Erol’s work in these areas, and then discuss each of the contributions that appear here together with their links to Erol’s own published research. 1. THIS SPECIAL ISSUE This special issue is a collection of fourteen papers that honor Erol Gelenbe, on the occasion of his 70th birthday (Figures 1 and 2). Most of them were presented at the Symposium that was held to celebrate his work from September 20–25th at Imperial College and other venues in London.

  • Random Neural Networks for Deep Learning
    Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering Random Neural Networks for Deep Learning Yonghua Yin Supervised by Professor Erol Gelenbe Submitted in part fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Imperial College London, May 2018 Abstract The random neural network (RNN) is a mathematical model for an \integrate and fire” spiking network that closely resembles the stochastic behaviour of neurons in mammalian brains. Since its proposal in 1989, there have been numerous investigations into the RNN's applications and learning algorithms. Deep learning (DL) has achieved great success in machine learning, but there has been no research into the properties of the RNN for DL to combine their power. This thesis intends to bridge the gap between RNNs and DL, in order to provide powerful DL tools that are faster, and that can potentially be used with less energy expenditure than existing methods. Based on the RNN function approximator proposed by Gelenbe in 1999, the approximation capability of the RNN is investigated and an efficient classifier is developed. By combining the RNN, DL and non-negative matrix factorisation, new shallow and multi- layer non-negative autoencoders are developed. The autoencoders are tested on typical image datasets and real-world datasets from different domains, and the test results yield the desired high learning accuracy. The concept of dense nuclei/clusters is examined, using RNN theory as a basis. In dense nuclei, neurons may interconnect via soma-to-soma interactions and conventional synaptic connections. A mathematical model of the dense nuclei is proposed and the transfer function can be deduced.

  • Erol Gelenbe: a Career in Multi-Disciplinary Probability Models
    Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences, 30, 2016, 308–325. doi:10.1017/S0269964816000024 EROL GELENBE: A CAREER IN MULTI-DISCIPLINARY PROBABILITY MODELS M. UFUK C¸AGLAYAN˜ Department of Computer Eng’g Bo˜gazi¸ci University PK 8, Bebek, Istanbul, Turkey E-mail: [email protected] We focus on Erol Gelenbe’s scientific and technical contributions to probability models in the computer and information sciences, but limit our survey to the last fifteen years. We start with a brief overview of his work as a single author, as well as his work in collabora- tion with over 200 co-authors. We discuss some of his recent and innovative work regarding a new probability model that represents Intermittent Energy Sources for Computing and Communications, introducing Energy Packet Networks which are a probabilistic represen- tation of the flow, storage and consumption of electrical energy at the microscopic level (in electronic chips), and at the macroscopic level (e.g. in buildings or data centers) and for its routing and dynamic usage by consuming units (such as computer elements, chips or machines). We next discuss his work on designing computer and communication systems that parsimoniously use energy in order to achieve a satisfactory level of quality of service (QoS). Trade-offs between system QoS and energy consumption are also considered. Then we turn to Prof. Gelenbe’s pioneering work on Autonomic Communications and the design and implementation of CPN, the Cognitive Packet Network, and we also briefly review his spiking random neural network that was used in CPN. This is followed by a brief review of work that he conducted since 1999 on human evacuation from dangerous or catastrophic environments, and the design of technology driven Emergency Management Systems.

  • On Sharing Knowledge and Fostering Open Science.Pdf
    Ubiquity, an ACM publication May 2021 On Sharing Knowledge And Fostering “Open Science” by Erol Gelenbe, Guy Brasseur, Luc Chefneux, Véronique Dehant, Véronique Halloin, Jean-Paul Haton, Michel Judkiewicz, Bernard Rentier, and Romain Weikmans Editors’ Introduction The crucial importance of science and technology and its accurate peer reviewed dissemination, has once again been demonstrated during the current pandemic. Thus the COVID-19 pandemic together with the inevitable energy transition required by climate change, lead us to consider the issue of scientific and technical communication, both for the written papers and proceedings that have largely moved online (but not always in open access), and the various types of seminars, workshops, and symposia that frequently involve air travel with substantial CO2 impact. Online meetings that have become recently very popular, as well as online repositories for publications, themselves have a significant CO2—as well as environmental—impact, due to the massive use of electricity by information and communication technologies (ICT) and of the environmentally unfriendly manufacturing processes and decommissioning of ICT equipment. Presented is a broad overview of these aspects, and some recommendations regarding the future organization of scientific and technical communication, including: (1) peer-reviewed journals and proceedings with online open access; (2) the importance of face to face seminars and symposia, together with online meetings, to maintain the serendipity and importance of direct human contact while reducing the need for air travel; (3) the peer evaluation of research and of academic and research staff and its dependence on publications and their qualitative—rather than excessively quantitative—evaluation, where the concept of impact should include the usefulness of research to education, industry and society; (4) and the crucial role of ICT in all these aspects and the questions raised by the sustainability of ICT itself.
