You are cordially invited to submit your latest work to the 7th Age and Semantics of Information Workshop in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2024, Vancouver, Canada, May 20, 2024.

 

Age and Semantics of Information are of fundamental importance to next generation communication systems. Age of Information (AoI) is an end-to-end metric that can capture one semantic property known as timeliness of information, which is important for information-update and data analytics applications (e.g., crowdsourcing, financial trading, social networks, and online learning), as well as networked monitoring and control systems (e.g., sensor networks, airplane/vehicular control, robotics networks, Internet of Things, and Cyber-Physical Systems).  Semantics of Information (SoI) captures properties of information that relate to the “goal” and “purpose” of information, which is also meant to improve the performance of systems that utilize the information. Recent research advances on the Age of Information suggest that many well-known design principles (e.g., for providing high throughput and low delay) that lead to the success of traditional data networks are inappropriate and need to be re-examined for enhancing information freshness in the rapidly emerging real-time applications. In the meantime, the paradigm shift to Semantics of Information toward 6G communications systems is also expected to create systems that generate, process, and transmit only a small fraction of information, which will consume less energy and channel resources, without sacrificing their effectiveness.

The ASoI Workshop calls for original and previously unpublished papers, up to 6 pages (with the option of 2 extra pages at $100 per extra page). Manuscripts must be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and submitted as PDF files (formatted for 8.5x11 inch paper) through the EDAS website: https://edas.info/N31767
