1. Title:Machine Learning and Optimization for Blockchain based Internet-of-things
Summary:
The concepts of Internet of Things (IoT) are providing services across different sectors including agriculture, healthcare, manufacturing, smart cities, smart supply chain, industrial internet and automobile. However, security becomes a major concern in IoT environment, which is important to address before widely deploying the IoT services. Bloackchain is a capable technology that provide transparent, traceable and high level security without being dependent on centralized body. The blockchain technology perfectly fit to the architecture and features of IoT systems. However, the blockchain is still a novel concept and face many challenges specifically related to integration and universal adoption, legal and regulatory status issues, availability, safety, privacy and efficiency. The given challenges motivate us to explore various possible solutions for the secure IoT environment. Machine Learning and Optimization come into play as the leading solution strategies recently. This workshop is concerned with the Machine Learning and Optimization techniques addressing various tasks in blockchain based IoT.

2. Title:Intelligent Internet of Things Technologies and Applications
Summary:
5G networks are widely believed to be the enabler of a broad range of smart applications, such as Smart City, Energy Internet, Smart Agriculture, and so on. The massive Machine Type of Communication (mMTC) of 5G supports up to 1 million device connections per square kilometer, which hence enables high density deployment of a massive number of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices within a relatively small geographic area. To realize the benefit of 5G in smart applications, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Edge Computing will play a critical role in implementing and developing the IoT by bringing intelligent computing paradigm and enhancing the quality and performance of the IoT services. It is envisioned that applying AI and Edge Computing technique into mMTC, eMBB and URLLC is a promising approach to solve the scientific and engineering challenges in IoT.

6. Title:Embedded Computing and Information Security
Summary:Embedded computing systems are designed to a wide range of competing criteria that have given rise to several different fields. On the one hand, they must perform increasingly complex tasks. On the other hand, embedded systems must meet tight cost, power consumption, and performance constraints. Information security is the practice of preventing unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, inspection, recording or destruction of information. The information or data may take any form, e.g. electronic or physical. Information security’s primary focus is the balanced protection of the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data while maintaining a focus on efficient policy implementation, all without hampering organization productivity. Machine Learning is an idea to learn from examples and experience, without being explicitly programmed. Instead of writing code, you feed data to the generic algorithm, and it builds logic based on the data given.This special Workshop aims to present and highlight the latest developments and emerging research of Embedded Computing, Cryptography Algorithms, Machine Learning with applications in developing all aspects of image, video, music, texture et.al..
