MECC 2025 Call For Papers
Rotterdam, The Netherlands

MECC 2025 invites contributions from researchers, developers and practitioners working at the intersection of cloud, edge, and IoT, fostering a deeper understanding of how MetaOS can shape the future of computing in this exciting continuum. 

Paper Submission Deadline: January 25, 2025

The 2nd Workshop on MetaOS for the Cloud-Edge-IoT Continuum (MECC 2025) will be co-hosted at the ACM EuroSys 2025 that will be held from March 30 to April 3, 2025, in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

The workshop, co-organised by projects of the MetaOS cluster - FLUIDOS, NEPHELE, aerOS, NebulOuS, NEMO and ICOS EU funded projects - aims to provide an overview of the opportunities and critical issues brought by a MetaOS orchestrating the Cloud-Edge-IoT ecosystem, particularly focusing on its deployment to optimize AI processes computational needs.

Through a series of technical presentations, interactive sessions, and panel discussions, this workshop will address critical issues such as interoperability, standardization, and contribution to relevant open-source projects. Participants will have the opportunity to exchange ideas, share research findings, and collaborate on innovative solutions to advance the field of MetaOS.

TOPICS OF INTEREST:

  • Enablers, tools and mechanisms for MetaOS, services and applications
  • Latency, scalability, and connectivity issues in the continuum
  • Data protection, privacy, and defense mechanisms against emerging threats
  • Solutions and algorithms for distributed processing at the edge
  • Real-time decision making and AI models based on heterogeneous data
  • Practical applications of MetaOS in various industries, e.g., healthcare, smart cities, and industrial automation
  • AI/ML for resource allocation and predictive maintenance
  • Service and network orchestration in the continuum
  • Serverless computing and Function-as-a-Service in the MetaOS
  • Energy efficiency and resource optimisation by exploiting MetaOS benefits
  • Multi-tenancy at the edge of the network
  • Open Hardware and Software solutions for the MetaOS
  • Novel solutions for a transparent service migration across (far) regions
  • Business models for a multi-stakeholder MetaOS-based computing continuum
