报告摘要：The tremendous big data generated from natural systems, engineered systems, and human activities require new capabilities in algorithms and systems to explore insights and make decisions. To address these challenges, we propose a two-pronged solution: self-programmed models and self-programmed systems, collectively called software-defined ecosystems(SDE). In particular, self-programmed systems feature software-defined networking and computing; self-programmed models feature deep hierarchical learning and data-driven self-programming. Our preliminary prototype Cognitive Engine is one of the first attempts to realize such a coherently symbiotic ecosystem.
报告人简介：Xiaolin Andy Li is an associate professor, area chair of Computer Engineering Division, in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Florida. His research interests include Cloud Computing, Big Data, Software-Defined Networking, Deep Learning, Cyber-Physical Systems, Mobile Social Networks, and Security & Privacy. He is directing the Scalable Software Systems Laboratory (S3Lab). He is in the executive committee of IEEE Technical Committee of Scalable Computing (TCSC). He co-founded the ACM International Workshop of Software-Defined Ecosystems (BigSystem) as the steering committee chair and the program chair. He designed and built one of the first 100Gbps SDN research networks in USA, the first SDN-enabled campus cloud GatorCloud, the composable CognitiveEngine for massive deep learning, and the smartphone indoor GPS with world-leading results of 5cm precision. He received a PhD in Computer Engineering from Rutgers University. He is a recipient of the National Science Foundation CAREER Award in 2010, Internet2 Innovative Application Award in 2013, and NSF I-Corps Top/Representative Team Award in 2015.
