特邀报告1Acemap: Design and Implementation

特邀讲者: 王新兵 教授、博士生导师(上海交通大学)

报告摘要:

  A large number of papers are being published every year, which makes it difficult for researchers to grasp the relationship among the scientific literatures and the big picture of academic fields. The new challenges have thus been raised, such as analyzing the complicated citation and author network, mining valuable scientific knowledge, and visualizing big scholarly data. The existing academic systems, such as Google Scholar and DBLP have mainly adopted text-based methods, while some other systems make attempts to better navigate the literatures, for example, AMiner and Science Navigation Map. Although these systems show improvements, they fail to present the academic data in a holistic way, and also have limited functions. Therefore, we need to develop new tools which can realize more modules and further explore the academic literatures.

In this talk, we conceptualize and design a novel academic system, AceMap, to analyze the big scholarly data and present the results through a “map” approach. AceMap integrates several algorithms in the field of network analysis and data mining, and then displays the information in a clear and intuitive way, aiming to help the researchers facilitate their work. After describing the big picture, we present achieved results and our work in progress. By far, AceMap has implemented the following functions: dynamic citation network display, paper clustering, academic genealogy, author and conference homepage, etc. We have also designed and performed distributed network analysis algorithms in a cutting-edge Spark system and utilized modern visualization tools to present the results. Finally, we conclude our paper by proposing the future outlooks.

特邀报告2From Data Analysis to Parallel Computing of Safety Route Design in A Smart City

特邀讲者: Dr. Bin Xiao, Associate ProfessorThe Hong Kong Polytechnic University

报告摘要:

  Information about urban safety, e.g., the safety index of a position, is of great importance to protect humans and support safe walking route planning. The problem of analyzing urban safety to predict safety index throughout a city has not been sufficiently studied and remains open. In this talk, we will first propose U-Safety, an urban safety analysis system to infer safety index by leveraging multiple cross-domain urban data. Then, based on the constructed safety index map of a city, we propose a reinforcement learning based Multi-Objective Hyper-Heuristic (MOHH) approach to route planning in a smart city. The approach can achieve both safety requirement and short distance in the route design for a smart city. Finally, we show extensive experiments based on real data sources obtained in New York City. The evaluation results demonstrate the advantages of U-Safety over other methods. The MOHH approach can obtain more than 80% Pareto optimal solutions in a large-scale road network.

专题报告1移动内容分发的云计算方法

特邀讲者:李振华 助理教授、博士生导师清华大学

报告摘要:

    互联网存在的最基础意义就是内容分发,即将数字内容从一个节点分发到另一个或多个节点。由于互联网固有的动态性与异构性,尽管已经发展了几十年,内容分发的实际性能依然不尽如人意——回忆你最近一次打Skype电话或者看网络视频时的抓狂。伴随全球互联网步入移动时代,内容分发面临更多方面的挑战,比如信号不稳定、流量超预算、基站不安全等。基于和百度手机卫士、腾讯QQ旋风、小米移动等大规模工业系统的长期合作探索,我们清晰地认识到:移动内容分发的问题很难依靠几十MB的手机APP得到根治,而应依托稳定、弹性、集成化与智能化的云计算方法。为此,我们设计并实现了一系列显著提升移动内容分发性能的云计算方法,包括离线下载的自适应重定向算法、云端融合的跨应用手机节流算法、伪基站电信诈骗的识别与定位算法等。多项研究成果属于国际首创,并被工业系统实际采用,受益用户过亿。

专题报告2Adaptive Distributed Optimization for Uploading Data with Redundancy in Cooperative Mobile Cloud

特邀讲者: 教授(国防科技大学)

报告摘要:

  With the development of information technology and the ubiquity of mobile devices, increasing amounts of data are generated, processed and transmitted by mobile devices. In order to alleviate the tension between the energy poverty of mobile devices and the increasing demand for transmitting data, the energy-efficient data transmission problem attracts considerable research interests. Nonetheless, how to upload data with redundancy efficiently still lacks a thorough study in spite of the wide existence of this problem in many situations like data storage among mobile devices and mobile crowd sensing. Since uploading redundant data brings little value while still consuming precious energy, it is important to design an efficient approach for mobile devices to upload data with redundancy cooperatively. In this talk, we formulate the uploading data with redundancy in cooperative mobile cloud as an energy-constrained utility maximization problem. To solve this problem, we propose an adaptive distributed optimization approach consisting of the correlated upload decision and the online distributed scheduling algorithm. By the correlated upload decision, each mobile device can make adaptive decisions on how much data to upload and which data to upload according to its own observations independently. The online distributed scheduling algorithm enables mobile devices to optimally upload data while requiring no future information.
