Link: http://www.ieee-ies.org/images/files/tii/ss/2022/Digital_Twin_for_Industria… Industrial IoT can revolutionize industrial operation by interconnecting numerous machines, analytics sectors, and people at work. Through a deep cooperation of these components, industrial IoT brings new business opportunities and incredible productivity to applications such as smart robotics, future factories, and automotive manufacturing. The success of industrial IoT relies on the dynamic perception and intelligent decision-making, which is difficult to conceive due to the heterogeneous industrial devices, the complex industrial environment, and the sophisticated business operation strategy. Digital twin, as an emerging digitalization technology, provides a feasible solution to capture the complex industrial environment and make predictive strategies. It builds a virtual representation of industrial entities and manufacturing process, updated with the physical entities at a specified fidelity and frequency. For example, for industrial manufacturers, digital twins can create digital models of substantial machines, to help us make holistic understanding of how these machines work, make possible modification or predictive maintenance, and take effective actions before devoting much resources and expenditure. The integration of digital twins and the industrial IoT enables a digital revolution of industrial automation. Researchers from industry and academia have focused on the virtualization and digitalization of industrial objects, while there are yet a number of challenges like high-fidelity modularity of digital twins, synchronization between digital and physical objects, interaction and networking among digital twins, scalable and resilient design of digital twin for industrial IoT. To fill the gap, this special section solicits high quality and unpublished work on recent advances in Digital Twins for Industrial IoT. - New computing architecture for digital twin in industrial IoT - New communication mechanisms for digital twin in industrial IoT - New scalable and resilient digital twin for industrial IoT - Advanced AI/ML models for digital twins in industrial IoT - Advanced data mapping-communication-computation architecture for digital twins empowered industrial IoT - Advanced softwarization and virtualization technologies for digital twin in industrial IoT - Advanced networking among digital twins for industrial IoT - Fault tolerance for digital twin in industrial IoT - Cross layer design for digital twin in industrial IoT - QoS/QoE improvement for digital twins empowered industrial IoT - Performance analysis of digital twins for industrial IoT - Resource allocation/management for digital twins empowered industrial IoT - Applications and testbeds of digital twin for industrial IoT Timeline: Manuscript Submission: May 30, 2022 Expected Publication Date: October 2022 Guest Editors: • Prof. Yan Zhang, University of Oslo, Norway, yanzhang(a)ieee.org • Prof. Wen Sun, Northwestern Polytechnical University, China, sunwen(a)nwpu.edu.cn • Prof. Cristina Alcaraz, University of Malaga, Spain, alcaraz(a)uma.e Manuscript Preparation and Submission: Follow the guidelines in “Information for Authors” in the IEEE Transaction on Industrial Informatics http://www.ieee-ies.org/pubs/transactions-on-industrial-informatics.

Fwd: CPS-IoTBench 2022: [EXTENDED] Call for Papers and for Reproducibility Studies
by Lars Wolf 01 Feb '22

01 Feb '22

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: CPS-IoTBench 2022: [EXTENDED] Call for Papers and for Reproducibility Studies Datum: Tue, 1 Feb 2022 17:24:59 +0400 Von: Michael Baddeley <michael(a)ssrc.tii.ae> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 5th Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench 2022) -- https://www.iotbench.ethz.ch/cps-iotbench-2022 <https://www.iotbench.ethz.ch/cps-iotbench-2022> Hybrid event co-located with CPS-IoT Week -- May 3, 2022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Research on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and the Internet of Things (IoT) has bloomed over the last decade. This research has led to the development of smart systems at different scales and environments, from smart homes and cities to smart grids and factories. Significant progress has been made through contributions in areas as diverse as control, embedded and real-time systems, wireless communication, and networking. Despite these advances, a lack of standard evaluation criteria and methodologies makes it difficult to measure and compare the utility of this progress. This problem concerns the evaluation against the state of the art in an individual area, the comparability of different integrated designs that span multiple areas (e.g., control and networking), and the applicability of tested scenarios to present and future real-world CPS/IoT applications and deployments. This state of affairs is alarming, as it significantly hinders further progress in CPS and IoT research. The Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench) has been a forum to bring together researchers from different communities since 2018, to engage in a lively debate on all facets of rigorously evaluating and comparing CPS and IoT solutions. This year, we will have a special session on the benchmarking and reproducibility of AI and machine learning techniques in CPS and IoT systems. CPS-IoTBench provides a venue for learning about each other’s challenges and evaluation methodologies and for debating future research agendas to jointly define the performance metrics and benchmarking scenarios that matter from an overall system perspective. *** Call for Papers and for Reproducibility Studies *** For the workshop's 5th edition, which will take place in a virtual form within CPS-IoT Week, we invite researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to submit papers that focus on one of the following: - Presenting exemplary benchmarking systems and approaches from any of the relevant communities (e.g., embedded systems, real-time systems, networking, wireless communication and control, robotics, machine learning). - Exposing key issues (or support current practice!) on the application and reproducibility of AI and machine learning techniques in CPS and IoT systems. - Identifying fundamental challenges and open questions in rigorous benchmarking and evaluation of CPS and IoT solutions. - Offering a constructive critique on the current practices and state of experimental comparisons. - Designing and evaluating benchmarking methodologies, infrastructures, or tools for cyber-physical and IoT systems. - Benchmarking industrial standardized solutions against each other and against academic solutions. - Presenting novel performance comparisons in the context of cyber-physical and IoT systems. - Reporting on success stories or failures when using standard evaluation criteria. - Describing techniques for improving the reproducibility of real-world testing of wireless systems. - Proposing new research directions, methodologies, or tools to increase the level of reproducibility and comparability of evaluation results. Well-reasoned arguments or preliminary evaluations are sufficient to support a paper’s claims. Unique to this year's workshop edition, we also seek contributions describing the reproduction of experimental results from published work within any of the relevant communities. Examples of this include: - Papers that repeat prior experiments (ideally using the original source code) to show how, why, and when the methods work (or not). - Papers that repeat prior experiments in new contexts (e.g., different application domains or using different evaluation methodologies and metrics) to further generalize and validate (or not) previous work. - Reproducibility studies of a given scientific work for which some key aspect(s) in the experimental setup was unspecified, showing the different spectrum of solutions as a function of such aspect(s). - Evaluations carried out by undergraduate and graduate students, experienced researchers, or industry practitioners looking to validate another piece of work before comparing their own to it. Reports should carefully describe the experimental setup as well as how the authors made sure to carefully reproduce conditions similar to those of the original study. If there are ambiguous conditions not specified in the original study which may affect the outcome (e.g. it is not specified whether the environment is an empty room or full of people), authors are encouraged to highlight, discuss, and empirically explore the impact of changing such a condition. Regardless of the study results, the tone of the report must be constructive and not offensive to the original authors. Prospective authors are invited to contact the original authors of the examined study and let them provide a short discussion paragraph that can be included in the final section within the report. Submissions from the same authors of the reproduced experiments will not be accepted. *** Submission Instructions *** Submitted papers must contain at most 6 pages (US letter, 9pt font size, double-column format, following the IEEE conference proceedings template), including all figures, tables, and references. All submissions must be written in English and should contain the authors' names, affiliations, and contact information. The submission Website is available at https://cps-iotbench2022.hotcrp.com/ <https://cps-iotbench2022.hotcrp.com/>. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE as part of the CPS-IoT Week 2022 proceedings. Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work in a plenary session as part of the main workshop program. *** Important Dates *** Paper submission: (extended) February 10, 2022 (1159 AoE) Notification of acceptance: February 25, 2022 Camera-ready: March 7, 2022 Workshop date: May 3, 2022 *** Workshop Organizers *** - Michael Baddeley (Technology Innovation Institute, UAE) - Michael Breza (Imperial College London, United Kingdom) - Romain Jacob (ETH Zurich, Switzerland) - Ramona Marfievici (Digital Catapult, United Kingdom) - Pat Pannuto (University of California, San Diego, USA) - Olga Saukh (Graz University of Technology, Austria) - Ambuj Varshney (University of California Berkeley, USA) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of the call ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- TII logo.png *Dr. Michael Baddeley* Lead Researcher Secure Systems Research Centre P.O.
