1.Call for Papers

Cloud computing has been widely adopted to enable convenient access to a 
shared pool of computing resources. Nevertheless, as the distance 
between the cloud and the edge device is usually large, cloud computing 
services may not provide guarantees to low latency applications, and 
transmitting a large amount of data (e.g., in big data analytics) from 
the device to the cloud may not be feasible or economical. To address 
these issues, edge (fog) computing has been proposed to deploy computing 
resources closer to end users. Edge computing allows edge devices to 
perform computation offloading to offload their computational tasks to 
the edge server, which executes the computational tasks on behalf of the 
edge devices. Another new technology called information-centric 
networking (ICN) has been extensively studied in recent years. 
In-network caching is used in ICN to reduce the duplicate content 
transmission in networks. ICN-based caching has been recognized as one 
of the promising techniques for future wireless/wired networks.

Recently, there is a phenomenal burst of research activities in 
integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading in next generation 
networks. From the perspective of applications (e.g., video), network, 
cache and compute are underlying resources enabling these applications. 
How to manage, control and optimize these resources can have significant 
impacts on the performance of applications.

The Workshop on "Integrating Edge Computing, Caching, and Offloading in 
Next Generation Networks" provides a forum that brings together industry 
and academia, engineers and researchers to discuss up-to-date 
developments in integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading in 
next generation networks. The workshop invites submissions of 
unpublished works on (but not limited to) the following topics:
