Conquering Complexity: Challenges and Opportunities

CALL FOR PAPERS
Multi-faceted systems of the future will entail complex logic and reasoning with many levels of reasoning in intricate arrangement. The organization of these systems involves a web of connections and demonstrates self-driven adaptability. They are designed for autonomy and may exhibit emergent behavior that can be visualized. Our quest continues to handle complexities, design and operation of these systems. An example of such systems would be neuromorphic machine technology that scales to biological level computation like “Systems of Neuromorphic Adaptive Plastic Scalable Electronics” SyNAPSE program of DARPA, as well as Deep Learning algorithms that can provide adaptive behavior to these systems of large-scale distributed networks through leveraging big data. Researchers from academia, industry and government will meet in Philadelphia in November 2014 to share their findings and expand the boundaries of research in the following topic areas.
