Aims and Scope:
In today’s era of connected digital world, Intelligent Embedded Systems (IES) represent a novel and promising generation of embedded systems and have the capacity of reasoning about their external environments and adapt their behavior accordingly. While embedded systems are a very mature technology overall, with the steady advancement of new and more powerful processors, the technology now enables the next-generation of intelligent devices, machines, equipment, and factories. Technologies such as smart sensing, RFID tagging, embedded internet, edge computing, and predictive data mining all work to permeate intelligence and decision making into the physical world with the ultimate aim of continually enhancing human experience in real-time. “Big data” is another important technology, in which analytics provides real-time insights, which need to be actioned upon quickly to support decisions, gain better value, and mitigate risk. Moreover, artificial intelligence (AI), and particularly the machine learning, has been intensively applied to deal with large-scale heterogeneous data to help innovate and transform businesses. The convergence of these two technology paths is highly promising, and opens up new avenues of IES.
The aim of this special issue is to discuss how large-scale data systems and AI can be leveraged to enhance the learning, reasoning, and decision-making in embedded systems, in real-time. Data governance, data integration, data storage, data quality and data security are some criticalities associated with this problem, while conventional embedded system architectures and protocols are used to prepare data are inadequate. Unlike traditional data sets that are commonly associated with embedded systems, big data tends to be unstructured, multi-modal, and in the case of human-centric text, perhaps multi-lingual. The incompleteness, fuzziness and uncertainty make it even more intricate to tap and analyse information using contemporary tools. We invite researchers to discuss intelligent embedded system design methods, optimization techniques, protocols and architectures. Novel approaches to information discovery and decision making which use multiple intelligent technologies such as machine learning, deep learning, artificial intelligence, natural language processing and image recognition among others are required to understand data & then generate insights. We also welcome implementation papers on analyzing and processing of big data and practical data-driven decision making by discovering and understanding knowledge from the data.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Intelligent embedded system design methods, optimization techniques, architectures, and protocols for high performance/parallel computing platforms.
- AI-empowered modelling of embedded systems for big data.
- Intelligent embedded system-aware protocols for data quality and integrity.
- Intelligent embedded computer vision and natural language processing systems
- AI in mobile embedded systems, wearables, and robotics
- Efficient memory and communication methods for high-throughput AI approaches
- Embedded systems for large-scale smart healthcare, avionics, transportation, and automotive
- Machine learning and embedded computing in advanced driver assistance systems
- ML algorithms for energy-efficient operation and low-power processing
- Green / low-power embedded software and embedded hardware
- Emerging hardware technologies in big data systems
- AI-systems on chip for the Internet of Things (IoT), Industry 4.0, smart transportation and autonomous robots
- Deep learning/machine learning frameworks for complex embedded architectures
- Fault-tolerance, reliability, and security for embedded IoT applications and deep learning systems
