[June 5th] Workshop Program and Presenter Instructions to be announced by June 8th. Stay tuned!
Networked AI Systems Workshop Program
NetAISys and EnvSys Workshops are merging for ACM MobiSys 2023 on June 18, creating a comprehensive one-day event.
Both workshops revolve around the pivotal roles of artificial intelligence, focusing on different but complementary aspects. NetAISys explores the integration of AI with networking systems, investigating the challenges and opportunities it brings. EnvSys, on the other hand, emphasizes the application of these technologies to environmental sensing, tackling crucial environmental issues using tech solutions.
We believe that this merge will serve as a platform for fruitful discussions and exchange of ideas, giving you exposure to a broader spectrum of research at the intersection of networking technologies, AI and environmental sensing. This will also provide an enriched setting where the EnvSys cases can potentially act as real-world use-cases for Networked AI Systems.
Further information on our two keynote speakers will be shared soon. Please check back for updates.
Note: This is a preliminary program and is subject to minor changes. Please check back for any updates.
Presenter Instructions
Duration:Each presentation will be allotted 15 minutes - 12 minutes for the presentation itself and 3 minutes for Q&A.
Format: All presentations should preferably be in PowerPoint (.ppt/.pptx) or PDF format. Ensure that the content on your slides can be easily understood when projected on a large screen.
Workshop Venue
The workshops will be hosted at Kielikeskus (Fabianinkatu 26).
MobiSys 2023 Workshop on Networked AI Systems
The 1st International Workshop on Networked AI Systems (NetAISys), colocated with MobiSys 2023, aims to bring together leading experts in the field to explore the latest advancements and challenges in the integration of AI and networking technologies. Such integration is driving the development of intelligent and autonomous systems that are capable of making decisions and performing tasks in real-time. The workshop will provide a platform for the presentation and discussion of cutting-edge research, the demonstration of innovative networked AI systems and applications, and the exchange of ideas, experiences, and case studies. The significance of this workshop to the ACM MobiSys community lies in the growing reliance on AI systems that are connected to and operate within wireless networks. With AI/ML migrating to the network edge, there is an increasing demand for efficient and effective AI systems that play a crucial role in powering various intelligent and autonomous systems in dynamic network environments with varying network conditions. By bringing together researchers, practitioners, and industry professionals, we hope to create a collaborative environment and a one-of-kind and valuable opportunity to delve into the challenges and latest advancements presented by networked AI systems and applications. We look forward to sharing our experience and insights with the ACM MobiSys community.
Call For Papers
The integration of AI and networking technologies is driving the development of intelligent and autonomous systems that are capable of making decisions and performing tasks in real-time. These systems are critical for a wide range of applications, including 5G networks, IoT, and edge computing. However, designing, implementing, and deploying AI systems in networked environments presents a number of unique challenges. One of the main challenges is ensuring that AI systems can operate effectively in dynamic network environments with varying network conditions. Another requirement is balancing the trade-offs between the computational and communication requirements of AI systems in networked environments. Additionally, there is a need to develop new algorithms and protocols that can effectively utilize the resources of the network while ensuring robustness and security. Finally, networked AI systems will deal with the high-dimensionality and heterogeneity of the data generated by AI systems in networked environments, which requires novel data management and analytics techniques.
The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working on the design, implementation, and deployment of AI systems in networked environments. The workshop aims to provide a forum for discussing the latest research and development in this field, as well as for sharing practical experiences and case studies.
By bringing together experts from academia and industry, the workshop aims to foster collaboration and to promote the development of new ideas and research directions in this field. The workshop is co-located with ACM MobiSys 2023 and will be held as an in-person event in Helsinki (Finland). We invite submissions of original research papers, as well as papers describing practical experiences, case studies, and tutorials.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Distributed AI algorithms and systems
Edge computing and fog computing for AI
AI-enabled networking architectures and protocols
AI-based network management and control
AI-based enhancement for reconfigurable wireless network design, optimization, and resource allocation
Functional decomposition and placement over RAN and edge for AI
Real-time networking protocols for Edge AI
Theoretical and/or experimental results addressing the predictability of networked AI systems from a computational and communication standpoint
Enhanced intelligent network slicing for edge AI platforms
AI-based network troubleshooting and diagnosis
AI-enabled network security and privacy
Data management, sharing, and sets for AI in networked systems
Real-world deployment and evaluation of AI in networked systems
Digital twin platforms enabled by networked AI systems
Submission Format
The 1st International Workshop on Networked AI Systems will solicit of two different types of submissions:
Full paper submission. Solicited submissions include both full technical workshop papers and white position papers. Maximum length of such submissions is 6 pages (including references), and if accepted they will be published by ACM and appear in the ACM Digital Library.
Work-in-progress and demo submissions. Abstracts describing work-in-progress and demonstrations are also welcome and warmly encouraged. Submissions are limited to 2 pages (excluding references), and if accepted included in the program as a short oral presentation – but will only be published on the workshop website (not the ACM Digital Library). Deadlines for this informal track remain open even past the early registration deadline of MobiSys 2023; author notifications will be rolling (i.e. max of 4 days after submission) to enable early authors to take advantage of available discounts.
NetAISys follows a single-blind review process, but all submissions must be original work not under review at any other workshop, conference, or journal. Submissions must be submitted as a PDF in the double-column MobiSys format. Submissions can use this LaTex template that is known to comply with the formatting requirements. Authors remain responsible for checking that their resulting PDF meets our formatting and anonymity specifications.
[IMPORTANT!] A selection of workshop best papers will be invited to submit extended versions for tentative publication in a special issue of Elsevier Computer Networks.
