May 19-22, 2025 In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: [Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation] The 10th International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC 2025) https://emergingtechnet.org/FMEC2025/index.php Tampa, Florida, USA. May 19-22, 2025 Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Florida Section *FMEC 2025 CFP:* Cloud computing provides a large range of services and virtually unlimited available resources for users. New applications, such as virtual reality and smart building control, have emerged due to the large number of resources and services brought by cloud computing. However, the delay-sensitive applications face the problem of large latency, especially when several smart devices and objects are getting involved in human?s life such as the case of smart cities or Internet of Things. Therefore, cloud computing is unable to meet the requirements of low latency, location awareness, and mobility support. To solve this problem, researchers have introduced a trusted and dependable solution through the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC) to put the services and resources of the cloud closer to users, which facilitate the leveraging of available services and resources in the edge networks. By this, we are moving from the core (cloud data centers) to the edge of the network closer to the users. FMEC dependability is based on providing user centric service. The purpose of Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing is to run the heavy real-time applications at the network edge directly using the billions of connected mobile devices. Several features enable the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing to be a perfect paradigm to the aforementioned purpose, which are the dense geographical deployment of servers, supporting mobility and the closeness to users. As in every new technology, some challenges face the vision of the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing, which are the administrative policies and security concerns (i.e. secure data storage, secure computation, network security, data privacy, usage privacy, location privacy, etc). FMEC 2024 conference aims to investigate the opportunities and requirements for Mobile Edge Computing dominance. In addition, it seeks for novel contributions that help mitigate Mobile Edge Computing challenges. That is, the objective of FMEC 2025 is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange new ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC).

We look forward to seeing you in Detroit! Tim Baarslag and Thanh Nguyen Publicity Chairs On behalf of the AAMAS 2025 Organizing Committee ?Call for Contributions to the Doctoral Consortium We invite PhD students working in the broad research areas served by AAMAS to take part in the Doctoral Consortium (DC) of AAMAS 2025. The DC is an opportunity to interact closely with established researchers in your field as well as other students, to receive feedback on your work, and to get advice on managing your career. Each accepted student will be matched with an established researcher from the community who will act as the student?s mentor. The mentor will interact closely with the student, will provide feedback on research and career management questions, and help foster new contacts. Each accepted student will also have the opportunity to present their work to their peers and senior members of the community attending. The programme will be completed with an informal lunch for participating students and mentors as well as a panel discussion focusing on questions of career management. The DC is specifically intended for PhD students who already have a concrete research proposal and preliminary results, but who still have sufficient time before the completion of their dissertation so as to be able to benefit from the DC experience. Preference will be given to students satisfying these criteria, but well-motivated applications from students who are at earlier or later stages of their doctoral studies will also be considered. Submission 1. Application package: A complete application package to the DC should be submitted as a single PDF and should have the following components (in this order): ? Cover page (1 page), with the following information: name, university, homepage, preferred personal pronouns, citizenship, PhD start date, expected graduation date, and name(s) of PhD supervisor(s). ? Extended abstract (2 pages + 1 page of references) motivating and describing your PhD topic and outlining some of the results obtained so far as well as your plans for continuing the work. ? Personal statement (1 page) with citations and brief discussions of up to five papers that have inspired your own research. ? Curriculum vitae (at most 2 pages), including your list of publications. The extended abstract must be formatted using the official AAMAS 2025 submission format , including abstract and keywords. Look at the proceedings of past editions of AAMAS for inspiration for how to write such a document. In addition, you will need to provide: 2. Letter of support: A 1-page letter (PDF) by your supervisor (signed and on official letterhead), in which they confirm that they support your application to the DC and explain why they believe that this is the right moment for you to attend the DC. A detailed letter of recommendation is neither required nor expected. 3. Mentor suggestions: The names and affiliations of three or more individuals you would hope might get assigned to you as a mentor during the DC. These should be established members of the AAMAS research community who would typically attend the conference. For inspiration, look at the listings of PC and SPC members of recent editions of the conference and ask your supervisor for advice. If your application is accepted, your extended abstract (and none of the other components of your application package) will get published in the official AAMAS-2025 conference proceedings. Submissions should be made through EasyChair AAMAS 2025 DC page: AAMAS 2025 Doctoral Consortium Submission Link Note that you will need to register an abstract (outlining your research topic in a few lines) several days before the final submission deadline. You can update your submission as often as you like before that final deadline, and you are advised to make use of this opportunity. You are welcome to also apply for a scholarship, but please note that this is a separate process. While acceptance to the DC may play a role in scholarship decisions, those decisions are made by the scholarship chairs and are subject to available funding. Important Dates ?

While traditional methods have yielded valuable insights, the advent of Transformers and LLMs have ignited a new wave of interest in narrative understanding. In the eighth edition of the Text2Story workshop, we propose to go deeper into the role of LLMs in narrative understanding exploring the issues involved in using LLMs to unravel narrative structures, while also examining the characteristics of narratives generated by LLMs. By fostering dialogue on these emerging areas, we aim to identify the wide-ranging issues related to the narrative extraction task and continue the workshop's tradition of driving innovation in narrative understanding research. ++ List of Topics ++ Research works submitted to the workshop should advance the scientific understanding of all aspects of narrative extraction from texts. This includes, but is not limited to, topics such as narrative information extraction, formal representation of narratives, narrative analysis and generation, development of datasets and evaluation protocols, as well as ethics and bias in narratives, and narrative applications. We encourage the submission of high-quality and original submissions covering the following topics and contributions focused on low and medium-resource languages. Narrative Information Extraction - Identification of Participants, Events and Temporal Expressions - Identification of Participants, Events and Temporal Expressions - Temporal Reasoning and Ordering of Events - Causality Detection - Big Data Applied to Narrative Extraction - LLMs for Narrative Extraction Narrative Representation - Annotation Protocols - Narrative Representation Models - Lexical, Syntactic, and Semantic Ambiguity in Narrative Representation - LLM-learned Representation Narrative Analysis and Generation - Discourse and Argument Structure Analysis - Narrative analysis of LLM generated text - Multilingual and Cross-lingual Narrative Analysis - Story Evolution and Shift Detection - Automatic Timeline Generation - Generative Language Models for Narrative Generation Datasets and Evaluation Protocol - Evaluating LLM-Generated Narratives - Evaluation of Multimodal Narrative Models - Annotated datasets - Narrative Resources - Using LLMs for Data Creation and Augmentation Ethics and Bias in Narratives - Identifying and Mitigating Bias in Generated Narratives - Ethical and Fair Narrative Generation - Misinformation and Fact Checking - Bias in LLM-generated narratives Narrative Applications - Narrative-focused Search in Text Collections - Narrative Summarization - Narrative Q&A - Multimodal Narrative Summarization - Multimodal Narrative-focused Search - Sentiment and Opinion Detection in Narratives - Social Media Narratives - Narrative Text Simplification - Narrative-based Text Anonymization - Personalization and Recommendation of Narratives - Storyline Visualization (including multimodal) and Narrative Structures ++ Submission Guidelines ++ We solicit the following types of contributions: -> Full papers (up to 8 pages + references): Original and high-quality unpublished contributions to the theory and practical aspects of the narrative extraction task.
