SUMMARY:(online) Consultation Workshop on Edge AI  - KDT JU’s Focus Topic Call 2023
DESCRIPTION:As part of the preparation of KDT JU Work Programme and Call 2023\, a focus topic on Edge AI is under discussion. The work programme promotes focus topics notably in the context of delivering on national and European policy priorities such as digital leadership. \nThere will be a virtual open workshop on Monday 24th October 2022 (16:00 – 18:00) to get feedback from the ECS (electronic components and systems) community on our vision for this focus topic. The baseline of the workshop is a long-term strategy for a series of focus topics in this area\, as well as a specific draft text for Call 2023\, as it was prepared by a core team of experts gathered by the three industry associations that are partnering in the KDT JU. \nThe workshop is organized in two parts. The first part will include a general presentation of the workshop baseline and brief pitches by selected experts. The second part will open the debate with the audience. \nParticipation at the event is free of charge\, but registration is compulsory.  See: Consultation Workshop on Edge AI  – KDT JU’s Focus Topic Call 2023 | (europa.eu)

SUMMARY:2nd RL-CONFORM Workshop\, co-located with IROS'22
DESCRIPTION:Reinforcement Learning meets HRI\, Control\, and Formal Methods!\nTECoSA researchers Iolanda Leite. Jana Tumova. Sanne van Waveren and Alexis Linard are co-organising a 1-day workshop at IROS’22\, taking place in Kyoto\, Japan. \nReinforcement learning (RL) has shown remarkable achievements in applications ranging from autonomous driving\, object manipulation\, or beating best players in complex board-games. Different communities\, including RL\, human-robot interaction (HRI)\, control\, and formal methods (FM)\, have proposed multiple techniques to increase safety\, transparency\, and robustness of RL. However\, elementary problems of RL remain open: exploratory and learned policies may cause unsafe situations\, lack task-robustness\, or be unstable. By satisfactorily addressing these problems\, RL research will have long-lasting impact and see breakthroughs on real physical systems and in human-centered environments. As an example\, a collaborative mobile manipulator needs to be robust and verifiably safe around humans. This requires an integrated approach with RL to learn optimal policies for complex manipulation tasks\, control techniques to ensure stability of the system\, FM techniques to provide formal guarantees to ensure safety\, and techniques from human-robot interaction to learn from and interact with humans. \nThe aim of this multidisciplinary workshop is to bring these communities together to: \n\nIdentify key challenges and opportunities related to safe and robust exploration\, formal safety and stability guarantees of control systems\, safety in physical human-robot collaborative systems;\nProvide unique insights into how these challenges depend on the application\, desired system properties\, and complexity of the environment;\nPropose new and debate existing approaches to ensure desired properties of learned policies in a wide range of domains;\nDiscuss existing and new benchmarks to accelerate safe and robust RL research;\nDisseminate the outcomes of the workshop and publish the results as a perspectives article in one of the major robotics journals.\n\n \n  \nThere will be two interactive panel sessions\, one on Principles and understanding of RL algorithms and models and one on Benchmarks\, implementation\, and accelerating RL research. \nFor the full program\, please see\nhttps://rlconform-workshop.github.io/\n  \n

SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Control Systems in the presence of Computational Problems
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time. For Autumn 2022\, the talks will be on-line or hybrid. All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions.  Members can register via the invitations; non-members can register via email to tecosa-admin @kth . se\nOur October seminar is with Professor Martina Maggio from the Computer Science Department at Saarland University and also the Department of Automatic Control at Lund University. \nThe session will be given in via Zoom (https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/66857695267). \nABSTRACT:  Feedback control is pervasive in our lives\, as it often lays the foundation of technology we daily interface with. Control systems are at the core of the energy distribution infrastructure\, govern the behavior of vehicles\, and are embedded into household appliances like washing machines. Controllers usually use sensors\, that provide information about the physical environment\, to calculate the values that actuators should assume to fulfill specific requirements. For example\, adaptive cruise control systems use the throttle to automatically adjust the vehicle’s speed\, while maintaining a safe distance from vehicles ahead. \nThe actuator values are calculated using hardware and software. Hence\, the computation of the new control signals is subject to accidental faults\, systematic issues\, and software bugs. However\, in many cases\, these computational problems can safely be ignored. This talk will introduce the problem of analyzing the behavior of control software subject to computational problems\, and verifying when no corrective action is needed\, i.e.\, when the control software is able to fulfill the system requirements despite the presence of computational problems. \nBIO:  Martina Maggio is a Professor at the Computer Science Department\, Saarland University since March 2020 and also an Associate Professor at the Department of Automatic Control\, Lund University since 2017.  She completed her Ph.D. at Politecnico di Milano\, working with Alberto Leva on the applications of control-theoretical tools for the design of computing systems. During her Ph.D. she spent one year as a visiting graduate student at the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT\, working with Anant Agarwal and Hank Hoffmann on the Self-Aware Computing project.  In 2019\, she spent a sabbatical year at Bosch Corporate Research in Renningen\, Germany\, working with Dirk Ziegenbein and Arne Hamann on the verification and validation of control systems in presence of deadline misses and computational faults.

DESCRIPTION:This interactive workshop takes place in conjunction with a Guest Seminar (10-11 Engineering Resilience for Cognitive Systems) and a half-time PhD seminar and discussion (13-15 Efficient Strategies for Safety Assurance of Automated Driving). If you are interested in joining for some or all of this Resilience Meets Assurance day\, please email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register\, stating which session(s) and whether you would like to join in real life (KTH Campus) or via Zoom.  (Members can accept the Outlook invitations.)  ABSTRACT:  In recent years\, the lack of sufficient evidence to support the safety claims of Automated Driving Systems (ADSs) has become evident\, and we have yet to see large scale deployment on public roads\, despite the promises made by several high profile auto-makers. Contrary to previous generations of automotive systems\, common design\, development\, verification and validation methods for safety critical systems no longer suffice to cope with the increased complexity and uncertainty of an ADS. Further\, there is a lack of understanding of how these common methods\, individually or in combination\, contribute\, or fail to contribute\, to provide evidence for the safety claims of the ADS. The workshop will summarise findings from a state-of-the-art survey and accompanied identified research gaps. Workshop participants will\, in an interactive format\, be engaged in discussions to validate these findings as well as discuss promising directions forward. AGENDA: \n\n~ Presentation of identified research gaps and delimitations ~ Group discussion:     * Do you agree with the presented gaps; What is missing?     * Break     * Presentation of collected/summarised gap     * Group discussion (self-allocation to the different gaps):         – How to address the gap?     * Key considerations and obstacles? Promising directions\, tools and approaches~ Summary \n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Efficient Strategies for Safety Assurance of Automated Driving - half-time PhD seminar and discussion (Magnus Gyllenhammar with Prof Mario Trapp)
DESCRIPTION:This session takes place in conjunction with a Guest Seminar (10-11 Engineering Resilience for Cognitive Systems) and an Interactive Workshop (15.30-17.00 Holistic Technological Perspectives on Safety of Automated Driving Systems -Methods for Provision of evidence).  If you are interested in joining for some or all of this Resilience Meets Assurance day\, please email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register\, stating which session(s) and whether you would like to join in real life (KTH Campus) or via Zoom.  (Members can accept the Outlook invitations.) \n  \n \nMagnus Gyllenhammar \nABSTRACT: Automated Driving Systems (ADSs) promise enormous benefits to society in terms of increased comfort\, safety and efficiency of the transportation system\, effectively by relieving the vehicle operator from the responsibility of driving the vehicle. Contrary to previous generations of automotive systems\, common development and safety assurance practises no longer suffice to accommodate the increased system complexity and operational uncertainty inherent to an ADS. This is why we have yet to see a large scale deployment of ADSs on public roads\, despite recent technological progress and the promises made by several high-profile auto-makers. For that purpose\, I have in my research explored the research question: What are efficient strategies for safety assurance of ADSs? In this seminar\, I present my contributions to-date\, wherein some insights I have gained when tackling this research question are collected. In particular\, I divide my contributions into three themes: understanding the completeness of the development and verification task of the ADS; deriving a driving policy for the ADS with respect to quantitative safety requirements while incorporating knowledge from operational data\, and surveying the state-of-the art\, both general methods providing evidence for safety of the ADS as well as assurance methods. Leaning on these insights\, I present my intended next steps of my thesis: my intended research direction and the proposed research questions to guide me through to the dissertation. More specifically\, I intend to merge the existing approach of dynamic risk assessment\, wherein the decisions of the ADS are conditioned on the current operating conditions; and the precautionary safety approach\, where quantitative safety requirements are fulfilled through a probabilistic view of risk. Thereby\, I hope to provide an assurance approach that is both effective and efficient by considering risk\, from a statistical standpoint\, while\, in run-time\, conditionally deriving appropriate actions based on the experienced operating conditions of the ADS. \nThe presentation will be followed by a discussion led by Professor Mario Trapp\, Director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Cognitive Systems at IKS (Munich\, Germany).    \nBIO:  Magnus Gyllenhammar pursues a PhD at KTH Royal Institute of Technology as part of his employment at Zenseact in Gothenburg. His research focuses on finding efficient strategies for safety argumentation of ADSs\, especially focusing on dynamic risk assessment in relation to the fulfilment of a quantitative risk norm. He received a MSc. in Engineering Physics\, major in Complex Adaptive System\, from Chalmers University of Technology\, in 2016. In 2018 he joined Zenseact (then Zenuity) and has since worked on creating and realising data-driven strategies for verification and safety argumentation of ADSs.

SUMMARY:Guest Seminar: Engineering Resilience for Cognitive Systems
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to share this open seminar from guest speaker Professor Mario Trapp\, Director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Cognitive Systems IKS (Munich\, Germany).  It takes place in conjunction with a Half-time PhD Seminar & Discussion (13.00-15.00 Efficient Strategies for Safety Assurance of Automated Driving) and an Interactive Workshop (15.30-17.00 Holistic Technological Perspectives on Safety of Automated Driving Systems -Methods for Provision of evidence).  If you are interested in joining for some or all of this Resilience Meets Assurance day\, please email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register\, stating which session(s) and whether you would like to join in real life (KTH Campus) or via Zoom.  (Members can accept the Outlook invitations.) \n \nABSTRACT:  Resilience is currently one of the most popular terms as soon as it comes to the quality of software-intensive systems. Mostly\, however\, it is just used as a modern label for existing dependability concepts. But resilience is much more than that. It stands for the property of a system to optimize utility whilst preserving safety in uncertain contexts. This means  a tremendous change of principles. Resilience is about building flexible structures that are capable to adapt to even unforeseen contexts by changing their structure and their behavior – it is the goal to optimize utility whilst preserving safety\, it is not the goal to preserve a fixed structure and behavior that were specified a-priori without knowing the contexts the system would have to face. To this end\, systems must become aware of their own state and context and adapt themselves\, i.e. yielding real resilience requires self-adaptivity\, which comes along with a long list of challenges if it comes to safety-critical systems. \nThis talk will therefore provide a deeper insight into the concept of resilience\, how it differs from classical dependability\, and how to engineer resilient systems in safety-critical applications. To this end\, it will approach a definition of resilience based on existing work in the dependability field but also by revisiting the history of resilience in other disciplines. It will elaborate what we can learn from the physical\, psychological\, and ecological mechanisms of resilience and it will derive a conceptual framework for Cognitive Resilience that helps us to engineer resilient cognitive systems. \nBIO:  apl. Prof. Dr. habil. Mario Trapp is Director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Cognitive Systems IKS.  In 2005\, he obtained his PhD with distinction from the University of Kaiserslautern\, where he also did his habilitation in 2016. In 2005\, he joined Fraunhofer IESE\, where he was initially responsible as a department head for the topic area of safety-critical software before being head of the “Embedded Systems” division from 2009 to 2017. After being appointed Acting Director of Fraunhofer ESK (today Fraunhofer IKS) effective January 1\, 2018\, he assumed this role on a permanent basis on May 1\, 2019. \nFor many years\, Prof Trapp has been contributing his expertise in the development of innovative embedded systems in the context of successful partner projects\, in cooperation with both leading international corporations and small and medium-sized enterprises.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Wearable Cognitive Assistance:  Vision\, Reality and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time. For Spring 2022\, the talks will be on-line or hybrid. All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions. Members can accept the invitations\, non-members can email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register.\nThe final seminar this Spring is given in conjunction with the 8th Quarterly Meeting for members\, held in real life here in Stockholm.  However\, if you wish to join the seminar on-line\, you can do so via: https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/66857695267. \nOur guest speaker is Mahadev Satyanarayanan\, Professor of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University (also a member of TECoSA’s International Scientific Advisory Board)\, who will be addressing\nWearable Cognitive Assistance:  Vision\, Reality and Challenges \n \nABSTRACT:  Viewed as mobile computing systems with built-in sensing\, processing\, and persistent storage\, humans are the result of more than 1 billion years of evolution. Our chances of improving upon nature in a short time (say\, 10 years) are negligible if we are bound by the same rules as biological evolution. However\, we have a unique opportunity that is not available to nature\, namely\, to amplify human cognition in real time through low-latency\, wireless access to infrastructure resources. These resources can be larger\, heavier\, more energy hungry\, and more heat dissipative than could ever be carried or worn by a human user.   Edge Computing and 5G are key enablers of this vision.  We have been exploring wearable cognitive assistance since 2014\, and built close to 20 applications of this genre.   In this talk\, I will share what we have learned through this experience.   The potential for this emerging technology to improve human productivity in many domains is indisputable.  At the same time\, important challenges must be overcome to realize this potential. \nBIO:  Satya’s multi-decade research career has focused on the challenges of performance\, scalability\, availability and trust in information systems that reach from the cloud to the mobile edge of the Internet.  In the course of this work\, he has pioneered many advances in distributed systems\, mobile computing\, pervasive computing\, and the Internet of Things (IoT). Most recently\, his seminal 2009 publication “The Case for VM-based Cloudlets in Mobile Computing” and the ensuing research has  led to the emergence of Edge Computing.  Satya is the Carnegie Group University Professor of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University.  He received the PhD in Computer Science from Carnegie Mellon\, after Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from the Indian Institute of Technology\, Madras. He is a Fellow of the ACM and the IEEE.  You can read more about his research at: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~satya

SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Fog Computing for Cooperative and Autonomous Driving
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time. For Spring 2022\, the talks will be on-line or hybrid. All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions. Members can accept the invitations\, non-members can email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register.\nOur May seminar is with Assistant Professor Yu Xiao\, head of Aalto University’s mc² Mobile Cloud Computing Group.  The session will be chaired by James Gross\, and given in Zoom. \nABSTRACT:  The emerging vehicular applications demand for a lot more computing and communication capacity to excel in their compute-intensive and latency-sensitive tasks. Vehicular fog computing is an emerging computing paradigm where computing resources are moved to vehicles or network infrastructure close to vehicles for shortening network latency and reducing ingress traffic to the cloud.  In this talk\, we will introduce the ongoing work at the mobile cloud computing group of Aalto University (mobilecloud.aalto.fi)\, covering fog-powered vehicular applications like vision-based mapping and localization\, deployment of fog nodes in 5G networks\, and data-driven resource and capacity planning for vehicular fog computing.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Next generation IoT: Europe‘s opportunity of Open Edge Computing Platforms
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time. For Spring 2022\, the talks will be on-line or hybrid. All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions. Members can accept the invitations\, non-members can email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register.\nOur April seminar is with Rolf Riemenschneider\, Head of Sector “Internet of Things”\, DG CONNECT\, European Commission. The session will be chaired by Martin Törngren\, and given in Zoom. \nABSTRACT:  Next generation IoT and Edge Computing are driven by a paradigm shift towards decentralised intelligence\, local and swarm computing. Edge computing offers new ways of using computational rexources\, enabling to move computation\, processing and analytics to the edge of the network and close to the place where data is generated. The new paradigm is characterised by advances in embedded and AI processors\, local decision making and reasoning on distributed data and across the computing continuum\, from IoT to edge to cloud.  The new paradigm requires a different research and innovation perspective in terms of management across the computing continuum\, programming environments for distributed IoT systems and an open platform model to deliver the integration of different edge technologies but also a business execution model that can offer the potential to accelerate market adoption and scale. \nThe presentation will focus on the strategic approach taken to support research and innovation technologies ‘From Cloud to Edge to IoT’ under the European Horizon Europe programme.  For more details\, see https://www.ngiot.eu/from-cloud-to-edge-to-iot-for-european-data/ \nBIO: Rolf Riemenschneider is involved in the research and innovation programme Horizon 2020 where he gained experience in research and innovation project management and European policies in the following areas: Advanced Computing\, Cyber Physical Systems\, Factories of the Future and Internet of Things. From 2009-2015\, he managed the ICT activities of the Public-Private Partnership Factories of the Future (PPP FOF). Since 2015\, he coordinates the cross-cutting activities  related to Internet of Things in Horizon 2020  across different policy streams with DG AGRI\, DG ENER\, DG MOVE and DG GROW. \nInside DG Connect\, he leads the research\, innovation and deployment of the next generation of the IoT with strong computing capacity at the edge exploring features like device virtualisation\, interoperability\, real-time\, energy efficiency and distributed intelligence. As an emerging innovation domain\, his key objective is to establish European supply and value chains in cloud to edge to IoT applications and the tactile internet by integrating relevant elements of computing\, connectivity\, IoT and AI. \nOne of the key horizontal activities related to achieving the targets of the Green Deal\, encompasses the Digitisation of the Energy System\, which includes IoT-driven interoperable solutions and products\, available especially in the home and buildings\, to enable an increased flexibility in energy consumption\, foster the integration of renewable energy\, and flexible charging of electric vehicles as well as  innovative application and services across sectors like home\, building\, energy and mobility.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Course Module "Industrial\, Reliable Wireless Networking – Fundamentals and Systems" (2/2)
DESCRIPTION:Attendance is free to all TECoSA members. To register\, please email tecosa-admin@kth.se stating which module(s) you wish to take. Alternatively\, calendar invitations will be issued to everyone on the tecosa-all mailing list. You can register by accepting the invitations that are of interest to you. (This module runs on more than one date – please be sure to accept all the relevant invitations.)\nFormat: Two 1.5-hour workshops\nLocation: Zoom\nTiming: Thurs 17 March kl.16-17.30 CET and Fri 18 March kl.16-17.30 CET\nModule led by: KTH: James Gross (jamesgr@kth.se)\nContent: *Underlying principles; *Communication theory background; *Implementation principles; *Examples (iWLAN\, IO-Link\, 5G\, 802.11be). The content is split into two parts: “fundamentals” and “systems”. For the fundamentals\, we will cover (a) Application layer requirements (b) latency/reliability challenges in wireless systems (c) theoretical results over the last decade (finite-block length models\, medium access schemes\, scheduling). For the systems\, we will cover (a) Wifi Evolution; (b) Cellular Systems; (c) Other approaches.\nAbstract: Wireless systems have been commercialized over the last thirty years mostly as systems to foster communication among humans. Applications like telephony\, client-server apps and lately also video services are good examples of this footprint. However\, over the last decade\, other use cases have become more and more the focus of the research community\, addressing essentially requirements that originate from industrial automation scenarios. These scenarios call for much lower latencies while simultaneously emphasizing the reliability of transmissions. In this module\, we cover the most important aspects of this development\, both from a research perspective (covering fundamentals) as well as from as from a systems perspective\, considering the performance of contemporary standards as well as the next wave of systems to come. \nThe TECoSA Course
