Edge Computing

Edge computing refers to a decentralized approach to computing where data processing and storage are brought closer to the source of data generation, rather than relying solely on centralized cloud servers. The "edge" in edge computing refers to the network perimeter or the outer boundary of the network.

In traditional cloud computing, data is sent to centralized data centers for processing, analysis, and storage. However, in scenarios where low latency, real-time processing, and reduced network bandwidth are crucial, edge computing comes into play. This is particularly relevant in applications involving the Internet of Things (IoT), industrial automation, autonomous vehicles, remote monitoring, and various other use cases.
  1. Low Latency: By processing data closer to the source, edge computing reduces the time it takes for data to travel to a distant cloud server and back. This is especially important for real-time applications where even a slight delay in processing can be detrimental.

    Bandwidth Efficiency: Transmitting large volumes of data to a central cloud can strain network bandwidth and incur high costs. Edge computing minimizes the amount of data sent over the network by performing initial processing and filtering at the edge devices themselves.

    Privacy and Security: Certain sensitive data might need to be processed locally due to privacy concerns or compliance requirements. Edge computing allows data to be processed locally without being sent to a centralized cloud, enhancing security.

  2. Offline Operation: Edge devices can continue to function and process data even when the network connection is unstable or lost. This is useful in scenarios where constant connectivity cannot be guaranteed.
  1. Scalability: Edge computing can distribute the computational load across a network of edge devices, ensuring scalability without overburdening a single central server.

    Real-time Decision Making: Applications that require immediate decisions or responses can benefit from edge computing as it enables real-time processing of data without relying on the latency associated with cloud-based processing.


  2. Redundancy: Edge computing can provide redundancy and failover capabilities, ensuring that critical processes can continue even if certain nodes or devices fail.

  Centrality Network Centrality in a network refers to the measure of the importance or significance of a node (or sometimes an edge) within that network. It helps identify which nodes play crucial roles in various network processes such as information flow, influence propagation, or resource allocation. Centrality measures are commonly used in network analysis, including social networks, transportation networks, biological networks, and more. There are several types of centrality measures, including: Degree Centrality: This is the simplest centrality measure and is based on the number of connections a node has. In a social network, it would represent how many friends a person has. Nodes with higher degrees are considered more central.   Closeness Centrality: This measure quantifies how quickly a node can reach all other nodes in the network. It is based on the length of the shortest paths from a node to all other nodes. Nodes with shorter average path lengths are considered more centr

The International Conference on Network Science and Graph Analytics (NSGA) is an annual event that brings together researchers, practitioners, and industry experts from around the world to share their latest research and developments in the fields of network science and graph analytics.  These awards are typically presented by professional societies, academic organizations, and industry associations that are focused on Network Science and Graph Analytics. Some of these awards are specifically aimed at recognizing early career researchers, while others honor lifetime achievements in the field. Nominees for these awards are evaluated based on their research contributions, scientific impact, and the quality and relevance of their work. The awards often include a cash prize, a certificate, and an invitation to give a keynote speech or present their research at a conference or workshop. They provide researchers with international recognition and prestige, which can enhance their career pros
