2021 IEEE SERVICES - 3RD IEEE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON DATA, INFORMATION, KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM NETWORKS (DIKWN)

https://conferences.computer.org/services/2021/workshops/dikwn_workshop.html

Everything as a Service (EaaS or XaaS) has followed the development of Software-Defined Everything as stakeholders determine the ultimate culmination of human production of both tangible and intangible services and solutions inner or inter Data, Information, Knowledge and Wisdom (DIKW) modals, which empirically answer 5W ( What, Where, When, How and Why). However, in the light of the overall trend of AI driven conversion from traditional services to intelligent or smart services, prevailing challenges arise for both conceptual foundations and technical preparation on DIKW modals, especially involving semantic understanding and utilization. As Knowledge Networks including Data Network, Information Network, Knowledge Network and Wisdom Networks, is short (DIKW Networks), are increasingly adopted for alleviating semantic understanding beyond various question and answering systems, various solutions focusing on DIKW Networks have been proposed in the background of Relationship Defined Everything of Semantics (RDXS) towards solving essence oriented computation and reasoning activities in the common background of incomplete and uncertainty prevailing resources with time and workload constrains. These approaches cover DIKW Networks creation, understanding, searching, reasoning, modification and especially and most recently embedding technologies in the form of various crossing multiple modals integration Machine Learning extensions. A foreseeable AI as a Service (AIaaS) landscape with explainable and interactive human interactions is becoming feasible based on DIKW Networks. The capability of DIKW Networks as a Service (DIKWNaaS) usages are constantly expanding, but there are also open questions especially in the era of rapid growing of crossing multiple modal processing demands. Recently we have also seen the emergence of various applications and models of DIKWNaaS) as a gradual acceleration towards an era of strong AI solutions in processing multiple modals, multiple dimensional multiple scale, multiple scales or even mesoscale content/resources.

This workshop aims to bring together researchers and industrial practitioners to discuss and exchange innovative ideas, results, work-in-progress and case studies in the Knowledge Graph, DIKW architecture and Knowledge Network. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• Crossmodal learning as a Service

• Incomplete optimal synthesis as a Service

• Data Network as a Service

• Information Network as a Service

• Knowledge Network as a Service

• Strong AI as a Service

• AI governance as a Service

• Explainable Machine Learning Services

• Situation-aware Knowledge Services

• Ontology modeling for DIKW services

• Data acquisition and linking services for Edge Computing

• Information analysis and abstraction services for Edge Computing

• Knowledge creation and reasoning services for Edge Computing

• DIKW architecture-based content/resource processing and service provision

• Load balancing based on transformation services among layers of DIKW

• Theories and methods for transformations and coordination among layers of DIKW

• Security and Privacy Services based on Knowledge Networks

• Edge and Fog Network Services related to Knowledge Networks

• Meta Modeling and formal modeling, and verification methods of semantic rich graphs
