The conference seeks to attract high-quality contributions covering both theory and practice over systems research and emerging domain-specific applications related to next-generation distributed systems that cover different parts of the cloud-edge compute continuum. This covers different computing models, including mist computing, edge computing, multi-access edge computing, fog computing, and mobile cloud computing. Some representative topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Topics

    Data centers and infrastructures along the compute continuum
    Mobility management along the compute continuum
    Federated learning and distributed machine learning in and for the compute continuum
    5G/6G for the compute continuum
    Middleware and runtime systems for the compute continuum
    Programming models for the compute continuum
    Storage and data management platforms along the compute continuum
    Scheduling and resource management for the compute continuum
    Security, privacy, trust, and provenance issues for the compute continuum
    Distributed consensus and blockchains in the compute continuum
    Modeling and simulation for and in the compute continuum
    Performance monitoring and metering of infrastructures along the compute continuum
    (Big) Data processing in the compute continuum
    Energy-efficient computing in the compute continuum
