RISE 2017 - First International Workshop on Reliable Intelligent Systems (RISE)

The First International Workshop on Reliable Intelligent Systems (RISE)
Hong Kong, China, September 26, 2017
in conjunction with IEEE SRDS'17:
The 36th Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems
http://srds2017.comp.polyu.edu.hk/
The Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to be the next paradigm to explode in
IT with 50 billion connected devices by 2020. The real-time requirement and lar
gely distributed nature of "things" may not fit well with the traditional Cloud
paradigm. They may favor distributed or hybrid paradigms where the compute and
storage resources span into the edge such as fog or mobile edge computing. The
se systems are built on top of devices which are on the one hand heterogeneous,
constrained, and often exacerbate the challenges in terms of dependability and
reliability. On the other hand the devices are also owned by multiple entities
and increasingly pervasive which heightens the challenges in security and priv
acy. The understanding of these systems is made using complex data analytics te
chniques and intelligent modelling when choosing the inputs / outputs and the c
ausality effects. Moreover, to lower the management complexity, these systems n
eed to be self controlled through autonomic loops and tend to a high level of l
ocal autonomicity.
This workshop aims to promote a community-wide discussion to find and identify
suitable strategies to enable reliable and secure intelligent computing systems
(Cloud, IoT) which are privacy-aware. We are looking for papers which apply da
ta analytics, modeling, autonomous control for assuring the dependability, secu
rity and privacy of systems.
