SUMMARY:SLICES Workshop: Scientific Instruments to support digital infrastructure science
DESCRIPTION:\n13 June 2022, Hosted by IFIP Networking 2022\n\n\n\nThe historic separation between the network and the compute has vanished. As defined by Sun microsystems long ago, “the Network is the Computer” (John Gage 1984); resources are everywhere supported by virtualization, distribution and cloud SaaS. This trend is going to impact the telecommunication and computer-based sectors, from design to products to operation. This will disqualify the multi-year planification approach based on new generations (2G/3G/4G/5G, etc.) and threat the corresponding legacy industry. The science of Digital Infrastructures raises multiple complex challenges to the research community that already started to explore them with an agenda sometimes branded as 6G!. Experimentation is becoming an even more important methodology to assess and qualify the diverse design assumptions and choices in realistic conditions. It addresses the future Internet roadmap with an ambitious agenda regarding the fundamentals and technologies for operating reliable, safe, scalable and efficient infrastructures as well as support the vertical applications that will land on these digital infrastructures. This is the motivation for developing a holistic approach where all resources (compute, storage, network) are associated to continuously design, operate and automate the full life cycle management of applications and services.\n\n\n\nThe need for a scientific instrument, as a reference to a rigorous methodology developed in many scientific domains, is justified by the emergence of a future Internet including beyond 5G infrastructures that require adapted and well-tailored tools for testing and developing trust and confidence regarding the design and deployment phase. Experimental platforms should be able to address the end-to-end scenario, integrating all technologies and components.\n\n\n\nSuch platform will allow researcher and industry to question scientific challenges regarding the future technologies and services. They will be based on a technology roadmap that will be consolidated on the basis of the analysis of several inputs provided by the community regarding the wireless technology advances, that are pertinent to the evolution of new radio (NR) and core network (CN) over the next decade 2020-2030.\n\n\n\nIt is important to note that initiatives exist at the international level with ambitious projects like EU ESFRI SLICES (2021-2040, 150M€), in the US (NSF PAWR ( https://advancedwireless.org/ ) 2017-2022 100M$, NSF FABRIC ( https://fabric-testbed.net/ ) 2019-2024 20M€), BRIDGES (2021-2024, 2.5M$) and China (CENI 018-2022 190M€), and efforts also developing in Japan.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe solicit original papers including but not limited to:\n\n\n\nAdvanced wireless networking experimentation New waveforms;Higher frequencies up to THz;Spectrum and wireless management;Integrated sensing and communication;Multiple heterogeneous radio management;Testing Smart/intelligent infrastructure operation and management Advanced protocols and architecture (virtualization, softwarization, programmability)AI applied to infrastructure operation and optimization at all layers;Generation of data to train algorithms;Distribution of intelligence into the Edge of the network;Design and validation of new Edge/Fog infrastructures Software and components deploymentDistributed resource managementGeo-distributed data managementFederated deep-learningMethodology for designing and operating a scientific instrument Instrumentation and measurement;Architecture and APIs;Experiment design and life-cycle management;Data management and reproducibility;Testbed implementation and operation.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStructure of the workshop\n\n\n\nThe workshop will follow a full day structure. The Workshop programme is structured for a full day with Talks/Panels in the workshop session, complemented with demonstrations if this is made possible.\n\n\n\nThis workshop also continues the work started in the INFOCOM 2019 “Workshop on Experimentation Meets Platforms: A Survey of macro trends in mobile communication research and its impact on future testbed development”. Several other workshops and panels have been organized successfully over the last few years and the proposers are very experimented in organizing such events, including moving into virtual has done already because of the pandemic. We have been able to attract at least 60+ participants on site, more than 150 for our last virtual event.\n\n\n\nImportant Dates\n\n\n\n\nPaper submission: 10 April 2022\n\n\nPaper acceptance notification: 25 April 2022\n\n\nCamera ready: 2 May 2022\n\n\nWorkshop date: 13 June 2022\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPaper Submission Information\n\n\n\nPapers should not exceed the page limit in IEEE format (double-column, 10pt font), including figures and references and should be submitted through EDAS in PDF format.
