Special Issue Call for Papers:
Overview:
An increasing traffic of valuable, heterogeneous and dynamic data constantly flows from billions of smart devices towards a plethora of innovative Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. Pervasively deployed within the environment so to be involved in our daily activities, these devices typically represent precious information sources and/or actuators, often with limited resources. Therefore, an effective and efficient Data Mining activity at the network edge becomes necessary to address their computation, networking, mobility and energy issues, while still providing adequate timely information extraction. To this end, the adoption of distributed and decentralized computing paradigms is widely acknowledged as a suitable solution to alleviate the issues of scalability, latency and privacy, using centralized approaches, like Cloud Computing.
In this special section, new Data Mining approaches particularly tailored for the IoT scenario will be investigated, in particular, with respect to the promising, emerging novel computing paradigm of Edge Computing. Indeed, conventional Data Mining techniques need to be adjusted for optimizing the long pipeline which eventually leads, across data collection, processing and communication, to the information extraction at the network edge.
Authors are invited to submit outstanding and original unpublished research manuscripts focused on effective and efficient data mining techniques for the gathering, analysis and exploitation of the distributed data generated at the network edge that would adapt to high mobility, resource boundedness, dynamic topology and power constraints. The section will also emphasize the presentation of innovative aspects related to a simulation-based approach for quantitative evaluation by combining elements of information technology and telecommunications networking, the pros and cons of different Edge, Cloud or hybrid deployments in the light of the specific applications requirements. Both theoretical and experimental aspects are welcome.
Suggested topics include:
- Systems for and applications of data gathering, integration and analysis from distributed smart devices
- IoT data stream mining
- Data Mining for Event Stream Processing (ESP) and Complex Event Processing (CEP) at network edge
- Fuzzy-knowledge retrieval from smart devices data
- Mobility- and scale-tolerant sensors data mining.
- Large-scale and evolutionary algorithms for big data mining at the network edge.
- Security and privacy of edge computing systems
- Models, architectures, applications, and tools for data mining at the edge.
- Simulation models and tools for edge computing systems
- Use cases of data mining at the edge in key IoT domains (Smart Grid, Smart City, Smart Health, Smart Manufacturing, etc.)
Submission guidelines:
Unpublished manuscripts, or extended versions of papers presented at related conferences, are welcome. Submissions must not be currently under review for publication elsewhere. Conference papers may be submitted only if they are completely re-written or substantially extended (more than 50%), and must be referenced. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed using the normal standards of CAEE. By submitting a paper to this issue, the authors agree to referee one paper (if asked) within the time frame of the special issue.
Before submission, authors should carefully read the Guide for Authors available at https://www.journals.elsevier.com/computers-and-electrical-engineering . Authors should submit their papers through the journal’s web submission tool at evise.com/profile/#/COMPELECENG/login by selecting “VSI-dmec” from the “Issues” pull-down menu during the submission process. For additional questions, contact the Main Guest Editor.
