11/22: Special Issue deadline extended!

Critical Infrastructures (CIs) are systems related to the delivery of vital public services, such as transportation systems, energy generation and transmission, telecommunication networks, hospitals, IT infrastructure, and others. While the preservation, improvement, and reliability of those systems are of priority to both the government and industry sectors due to their impact on society, disruptions are common due to the complexity and multitude of factors that contribute to the operability of those services.

The recent increase in connectivity and fast-paced AI advances bring new opportunities and risks to CI. AI systems can be introduced to increase efficiency and reliability. They can also be used to help repel sophisticated cyberattacks and mitigate natural disturbances, for example, the ones caused by weather issues intensified by global warming. However, applying and evaluating AI techniques in CI is not a trivial matter due to the complexity and impact of these systems. How do we ensure the safety of the public and critical infrastructure when AI systems become increasingly more autonomous? How can we ensure the public that these systems will be safe?
