Energy Efficient Trustworthy Sustainable Edge-Cloud Computing
In conjunction with IEEE Cloudnet 2023, 3 November 2023, New York Area, USA
Workshop Description
Nowadays, due to the advancement of the internet, several emerging areas (e.g., cyber-physical systems, sensors, healthcare, the Internet of Things) have become much popular. These geographically dispersed devices are connected with a network. Exchanging data through these networks faces several issues such as network breakdown with high latency rate, security, and privacy of data etc. Due to the increased complexity of such networks, edge computing and advanced cryptographic technologies can play an important role and provide an optimized solution to build a secure and privacy-preserving network. Because most of the standard encryption algorithms are well suited for the desktop environment, many of them are not well suited to constrained devices such as IoT. Therefore, we also need a lightweight advanced cryptographic solution to secure the data. Lately, there is a significant advancement of eco-friendly hardware and software solutions, ensuring enhanced consumer experiences while promoting energy management and better quality of service using edge cloud paradigm. As technology evolves, the next generation of networking must address the challenges of energy efficiency, trustworthiness, and sustainability.
This workshop aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to discuss and explore innovative solutions that leverage Distributed and Resilient Machine Learning (DRML) approaches to achieve data integrity, security, and reliability, without compromising the consumer experience.
The key objective of the workshop theme is to encompass the following issues:
- To understand the importance of green hardware and software solutions in the next generation of consumer electronics, and their role in energy management and e-waste reduction.
