Speech Title: AI in Geo-Distributed Systems: From Cloud to Edge
Abstract: When accessing cloud-hosted modern applications, users often suffer a significant latency due to the long geo-distance to the central cloud. Edge computing thus emerges as an alternative paradigm that can reduce this latency by deploying services close to users. In this talk, we will analyze the methodology and limitations of popular approaches for supporting AI services on geo-distributed systems along the evolution from cloud computing to edge computing. In particular, we shall discuss how to deal with different sets of challenges in training and inference, the two phases of machine learning based applications, over heterogenous geo-distributed systems. We shall also present our recent studies on data driven resource management among networked collaborative edges.

Speech Title: The Impact of Artificial Intelligence in 4th Wave Era of 21C?
Abstract: Many
experts have been mentioning the impact of AI technology in the
Fourth Industrial Revolution. And they prospect that this technology
will change the social situation such as life style, product method,
city, education, and etc. It means that our life pattern will be
changed by artificial intelligence for IoT (Internet of Things),
smart city, smart education, and autonomous vehicles.
Of course, these technologies will lead economy and can give
opportunities to get a job and product method will be changed by
these technologies. So, as researcher and engineer, we should create
on how an institution is organized, how it defines operation, how it
relates to surrounding communities or teams, how it responds to
research solutions or the results, and how it takes part in the
strategies and plan.
With the results, technology will go to convergences and smart which
gives an impact to works in plan for research, education. For that
we need to connect research experiences and create idea.
This lecture deals with research motivation and hybrid artificial
intelligence for student, young professor and researchers, offers
various research materials about hybrid artificial intelligence
method and emotional technology as artificial intelligence obtained
from research experience.
Conclusion suggests many possible approaches and why it is important
at this point to introduce artificial intelligence, especially why
we should recognize and study emotion technology earlier.
And this lecture also gives why we should innovate and how we can
obtain a good idea for emotion as topic of 4th wave through
experience.
Prof. Franklin Bien
Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology, South Korea
Professor Franklin Bien received the B.S. degree from
Yonsei University in 1997.
He received his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the Georgia Institute of
Technology at Atlanta, GA in 2000 and 2006 respectively. Dr. Bien’s
heritage roots from Dr. Joy Laskar. This also means Dr. Bien’s heritage
roots from a Nobel laureate and the father of ‘transistor’, Dr. John
Bardeen as you can see from the ‘People’ tab.
Prior to joining UNIST in 2009, Dr. Franklin Bien was with Staccato
Communications, San Diego, CA as a Senior IC Design Engineer working on
analog/mixed-signal IC and RF front-end blocks for Ultra-Wideband (UWB)
products such as Wireless-USB.
Before working at Staccato, Dr. Bien was with Agilent Technologies and
Quellan Inc., developing transceiver ICs for enterprise segments that
improve the speed and reach of communication channels in consumer,
broadcast, enterprise and computing markets.
In the early stage of his career including the Ph.D. work, Dr. Bien’s
research interests included signal integrity improvement with alternate
modulation schemes, cross-talk noise cancellation, and equalization
techniques for 10+Gb/sec broadband communication applications. Dr.

Speech Title: Realizing the IoT Age: How to power up various sensors?
Abstract: Everyone
has been talking about the Internet of Things (IoT) for several years
now. From users point of view, life style can change drastically with
various sensors planted everywhere helping each users in many different
ways. Sensors can talk to each other to enhance the quality of life by
automatically actuating different modules. However, it becomes a vary
practical question to ask: How are we going to power up various sensors
that enable the true IoT age?
In this keynote, several data sets will be shown to convince the forth
coming IoT age. Not only to enhance the life style of users, but also to
strive telecommunication business. Then from a hardware realization
point of view, different technologies to send power to remotely located
sensors will be introduced along with the limitations and possibilities
of each technologies.

Speech Title: Metamodelling Approach for Modelling Domains having
Different Mathematical Structure
Abstract: The methodology of Domain
Specific Mathematical Modelling (DSMM), which implementation aims to
overcome the shortcomings of an existing methodology of Domain-Specific
Modelling is proposed. DSMM introduces an additional level of the
metamodelling architecture, which allows us to take into account the
mathematical structure of the modelled domains, and to apply
mathematical operations for the development of new effective methods for
solving domain-specific problems. The concepts of the metamodel,
metamodelling, levels of the metamodelling architecture and the formal
semantics of the DSMM metamodels are defined. Examples of DSMM
application for the development of metamodels and their use for the
domains modelling are discussed.
