AI-Experiences and Public Safety Symposium: Exploring the Human Side of Technology
by Majsa Storbeck 14 Mar '24

14 Mar '24

- Apologies for cross-posting - Dear community, We are excited to announce the international symposium "AI-Experiences and Public Safety" which will take place at Erasmus University Rotterdam on April 8th and 9th. While there is much discussion about the technical and legal aspects of AI, there is surprisingly little attention paid to the human factor. However, when we live, work and exist in a world where technological developments are the norm, we must also consider how individuals relate to AI in practice and their personal experiences with it - including residents, activists, asylum-seekers, police officers and platform workers, among others. Their experiential knowledge is valuable because it makes clear how AI applications are experienced in practice, with all the emotions and feelings that come into play, including forms of resistance. Keynote speakers are Belgian philosopher Antoinette Rouvroy and affected mothers of the Dutch child benefits scandal<https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jan/15/dutch-government-resigns-over…>. The full program with all speakers can be found here: https://dutchsurveillancestudies.org/upcoming-seminar/<https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/cics-ts/5.4?topic=control-program-linking> Kind regards, Dutch Surveillance Studies @NLSurvStudies<https://twitter.com/nlsurvstudies> https://dutchsurveillancestudies.org/

September 2-5, 2024 Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Sweden Section *IOTSMS 2024 CFP* The Internet of Things (IoT) technology offers unprecedented opportunities to interconnect human beings as well as Machine-to-Machine (M2M), whereby networks across the edge-cloud continuum allow all things to communicate and share vital information, allowing us to have an instrumented universe where accurate data is readily available to inform optimal decision making. Indeed, the IoT has opened up for the development of novel types of services and applications in various application domains. It has changed how people go about their lives. The number of heterogeneous objects connected to the Internet is growing very fast. Ericsson estimates the number will be close to 38 billion objects by 2029. Others believe the actual number will be even higher with the assumption that any object with a simple microcontroller and on-off switch will be connected to the Internet in the near future. The scale of the IoT is set to have major economic, social, and environmental impacts; the intersection of which forms the future sustainable growth. The international conference on Internet of Things: Systems, Management, and Security (IoTSMS) aims at soliciting original ideas on the broad area of IoT, including challenges and opportunities, concepts and applications, and future trends.

FMEC 2024 CFP: The 9th International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing, Malmö, Sweden. September 2-5, 2024
by Stanley Ewenike 13 Mar '24

13 Mar '24

[Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation] The 9th International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC 2024 ) https://emergingtechnet.org/FMEC2024/index.php Malmö, Sweden. September 2-5, 2024 Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Sweden Section *FMEC 2024 CFP:* Cloud computing provides a large range of services and virtually unlimited available resources for users. New applications, such as virtual reality and smart building control, have emerged due to the large number of resources and services brought by cloud computing. However, the delay-sensitive applications face the problem of large latency, especially when several smart devices and objects are getting involved in human’s life such as the case of smart cities or Internet of Things. Therefore, cloud computing is unable to meet the requirements of low latency, location awareness, and mobility support. To solve this problem, researchers have introduced a trusted and dependable solution through the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC) to put the services and resources of the cloud closer to users, which facilitates the leveraging of available services and resources in the edge networks. By this, we are moving from the core (cloud data centers) to the edge of the network closer to the users. FMEC dependability is based on providing user centric service. The purpose of Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing is to run the heavy real-time applications at the network edge directly using the billions of connected mobile devices. Several features enable the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing to be a perfect paradigm to the aforementioned purpose, which are the dense geographical deployment of servers, supporting mobility and the closeness to users. As in every new technology, some challenges face the vision of the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing, which are the administrative policies and security concerns (i.e. secure data storage, secure computation, network security, data privacy, usage privacy, location privacy, etc). FMEC 2024 conference aims to investigate the opportunities and requirements for Mobile Edge Computing dominance. In addition, it seeks for novel contributions that help mitigate Mobile Edge Computing challenges. That is, the objective of FMEC 2024 is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange new ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC). FMEC 2024 is Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Sweden Section. Researchers are encouraged to submit original research contributions in all major areas, which include, but not limited to the following: - Fog and Mobile Edge Computing in unmanned aerial vehicle communications and applications - Fog and Mobile Edge Computing in mission-critical systems - Intelligent Transportation Systems - Edge-cloud computing architectures, frameworks and platforms - Edge-cloud networking and communication - Quality of Service (QoS) improvement techniques - Network virtualization for Edge-to-cloud systems - FMEC and IoT Data Communication Protocols - Industrial Fog and Mobile Edge Computing Applications - Mobile Cloud Computing Systems and Applications - FMEC in Environmental Sustainability - Trustworthy AI for Edge and Fog Computing - Security and Privacy in Fog and Mobile Edge Computing - Decentralized Data Management and Streaming Systems in FMEC - Data storage, processing, and management at FMEC platform - Federated learning and distributed machine learning in the fog and on the edge - 5G and fog/edge computing - Middleware and runtime systems for fog/edge infrastructures - Energy-efficient fog/edge computing - Edge/fog-to-cloud APIs and protocols - Mobility, connectivity, heterogeneity support for edge/fog services - Load balancing/scheduling in fog/edge computing - Crowdsourcing and establishing trust on data sources - Decision support systems for Edge-cloud computing - AI-based or data-driven orchestration of workflows in Edge computing - Automatic reasoning, scheduling and deployment of workflows and services in Edge computing - Distributed management of Edge computing - Mechanisms and data structures for the governance of Edge computing - Interfaces, orchestration and optimization of the Networking-Computing continuum - In-network computing for the edge-cloud continuum - Novel programming models for Edge computing - Dynamic Edge/Fog environments - Automatic deployment and continuous dynamic composition of Edge services - Semantic annotation of Edge/Fog services - AI in Autonomous Urbanism *Submissions Guidelines and Proceedings* Manuscripts should be prepared in 10-point font using the IEEE 8.5" x 11" two-column format.

Hullo everyone. It has long been talked about that different parts of the world are understudied. But is there any work out there that specifically actually points this out or makes explicit calls for more nonUS/Western contexts? Thanks Jeff
