2nd Workshop on Cooperative Communications and Computations in Space-Air-Ground-Sea Integrated Networks

Scope

Space-Air-Ground-Sea Integrated Networks (SAGSINs) represent the forefront of seamless and diversified network connectivity. However, several challenges must be addressed to enhance performance and security. The ultra-dense and dynamic nature of emerging Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations introduces significant obstacles in access, networking, routing, and resource allocation. The management and optimization of SAGSINs are further complicated by the heterogeneity of hardware and communication environments. The diverse requirements, uneven distribution, and high mobility associated with terrestrial services exacerbate the complexity of End-to-End service provision. To mitigate these challenges, techniques like Software Defined Networking and network slicing are extensively explored for cooperative communication and computation.

Free Space Optical (FSO) communications are anticipated to enhance transmission quality, while Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly advancements in large language models (LLMs), offers promising solutions for complex network management/optimization. Digital twins are increasingly employed to improve the reliability of these strategies through advanced simulations. LLMs, with their capabilities in intelligent data processing, real-time decision-making, and predictive analytics, have the potential to significantly enhance network management, resource allocation, and secure communication in SAGSIN. This workshop aims to convene academic and industry experts to explore fundamental and practical solutions to the challenges of intelligent communication and computation in SAGSINs.

Paper Submission

All submissions must be written in English in the standard IEEE two-column conference format and are limited to a maximum paper length of six (6) printed pages (10-point font) including figures and references. EDAS is configured to not permit the uploading of review manuscripts that exceed 6 pages. Once accepted, the final manuscript may have a 7th page, but such papers will incur an overlength page charge of US$100.
