The 1st IEEE SERVICES Workshop on Satellite Edge Computing (WoSEC)

The 1st IEEE SERVICES Workshop on Satellite Edge Computing (WoSEC)

Click here for Preliminary Program

Edge computing technologies are sparking innovation of satellite network. In the traditional satellite network, the massive data collected from satellite payload or IoT devices in remote or hazardous areas are delivered to ground data center for processing, causing the overload of satellite network and the long response time of users. In recent years, edge computing has been envisaged as a promising solution to these challenges. In satellite edge computing, satellites are equipped with sufficient computing resources and the intelligent control system to process the data collected from satellite payloads or ground IoT devices, and the processing result will be directly sent to the user by the satellite. Based on the support of satellite network technology, cross-satellite parallel and distributed computing can also be realized in smart satellite cluster, providing faster and better services for users.

Our main theme through discussions in the workshop is the theory and technologies of satellite edge computing. This workshop aims to bring together researchers and industrial practitioners to discuss and exchange innovative ideas, results, work-in-progress and case studies in satellite edge computing. Accepted papers will be invited to prestigious journal(s) for extension after consideration from the workshop.

In this workshop, topics of interest include but are not limited to:

  • Computing Architectures, Techniques and Algorithms for Smart Satellite
  • Smart Satellite Network and Services
  • Self-organization and Resource Management of Smart Satellite Cluster
  • Network Computing and Collaborative Service for Distributed Remote Sensing
  • Architectures, Techniques and Algorithms for Satellite Edge Computing Services
  • Infrastructure and Testbeds for Satellite Edge Computing Services
  • Satellite Edge Computing Services for Ground IoT
  • Satellite Edge Computing Services for Space Applications
  • Edge Computing Services in 5G Satellite Network
  • Service Migration in Satellite Edge Computing
  • Network-aware Services in Satellite Edge Computing
  • Services Orchestration in Satellite Edge Computing
  • Service Function Chaining in Satellite Edge Computing
