Description

The fusion of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is transforming the Industry and creating a new frontier of connected machines. These technologies, combined with manufacturing and other industrial processes, are driving unprecedented levels of efficiency, productivity, and performance to achieve the ultimate goal of the Intelligent Industry. IIoT applications, empowered with AI, include 1) factory automation for operational efficiency, 2) location tracking for locating tools, parts, and inventory, 3) and predictive maintenance to maximize uptime and increase disaster tolerance.

 

This workshop focuses on emerging topics to allow for a lively exchange of ideas and crossing the gap between Academia and Industry for empowering the Industry.

 

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Innovative IIoT sensing and machine crowdsourcing applications
  • Tools for building and measuring IIoT systems
  • Innovative Connected Machines
  • Novel software architectures for IIoT Edge devices
  • Data management for IIoT applications
  • System-level energy management for IIoT Edge devices
  • Real-time embedded operating systems for IIoT devices
  • Security and privacy in IIoT networks
  • Resource-efficient AI for IIoT Architectures
  • Virtual or Augmented Reality for Industrial Applications
  • AI and Deep Learning in real-time monitoring and control
  • Imaging in IIoT visualization and user experience
  • Camera sensor fusion in IIoT
  • Non-traditional topics that bring new perspectives to IIoT
  • Robust learning using adversarial attacks on IIoT networks
  • Collaborative federated learning-based for IIoT devices
  • Decentralized deep reinforcement learning for IIoT systems
  • Low-energy short-memory deep vision networks on resource-constrained IIoT edge devices
