On Dec. 20, 2017, IEEE Computer Society reviewed the status of dew computing as a new research area, and decided to create an organization to facilitate dew computing research. The name of the organization is: IEEE Computer Society Dew Computing Special Technical Community, or in its short form: DewCom STC. DewCom STC is an open, international IEEE organization composed of researchers, professionals, and students with interests in dew computing. DewCom STC members may be members of the IEEE, the Computer Society, or nonmembers of either. DewCom STC’s membership is free.
The 2nd International Workshop on Dew Computing (DEWCOM 2017) was held successfully on May 24, 2017 in Opatija, Croatia. Detailed information of DEWCOM 2017 can be found in the following link: http://www.dewcomputing.org/index.php/dewcom-2017/ Twelve papers and 4 oral presentations were accepted by DEWCOM 2017. During the workshop, 10 papers and 3 oral presentations were presented; one invited lecture was also presented. Researchers from the following institutions submitted their work to the workshop: Ruđer Bošković Institute, Zagreb, Croatia The 1st International Workshop on Dew Computing (DEWCOM 2016) was held successfully on July 7 – 8, 2016 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada. Detailed information of DEWCOM 2016 can be found in the following link: http://www.dewcomputing.org/index.php/dewcom-2016/ The number of all DEWCOM 2016 attendees is 16. Among them, 12 are official attendees. These official attendees represent 9 institutions: Ruđer Bošković Institute, Croatia Other attendees are from UPEI departments, National Research Council of Canada, and IT companies. All the 4 sessions of this workshop were packed with presentations and discussions. In some sessions, chairs felt hard to stop discussions and the break time became part of the session. In this workshop, ideas were exchanged and new collaborations were discussed. DEWCOM 2016 reached its goals. Related News Items:
Mane Tushar is a postgraduate student at Symbiosis International University in India. He is interested in dew computing research and wrote an article “Fog-Dew Architecture for Better Consistency.” See https://eye3i.wordpress.com/2016/07/02/adressing-inconsistency-in-dew-computing-using-fog-computing/ Dew computing is an emerging research area with great potentials. Generally speaking, dew computing is the evolved form of traditional computing in the age of cloud computing. It involves various areas such as hardware, operating systems, networks, databases, browsers and servers. Researchers may enter dew computing research from different angles. I am very happy to introduce Mane Tushar’s work. New ideas are precious; further discussions would also be helpful. Dew computing is a new computing model appeared after the wide acceptance of cloud computing. While cloud computing uses centralized servers to provide various services, dew computing uses on-premises computers to provide decentralized, cloud-friendly, and collaborative micro services to end-users. Dew computing is an on-premises computer software-hardware organization paradigm in the cloud computing environment, which is complementary to cloud computing. The key features of dew computing are that on-premises computers provide functionality independent of cloud services and they also collaborate with cloud services. Dew computing has just gone through its emerging stage. A few research groups contributed to dew computing from different angles. As an emerging and fast-growing research area, it is necessary to bring researchers in this area together to exchange research progress and to envision the path ahead. The 1st International Workshop on Dew Computing (DEWCOM 2016) is the first-ever conference in this area, and it will shape the future of Dew Computing. Details of this workshop can be found in the following link: http://www.dewcomputing.org/index.php/dewcom-2016/
This figure describes the essential idea of dew computing. The green leaf represents an on-premises computer. The dew drops on the leaf represent some applications that are running inside the on-premises computer. These applications have two features: they provide services to users and/or devices independent of cloud services and they collaborate with cloud services. Cited from: [16] Yingwei Wang, “Definition and Categorization of Dew Computing,” Open Journal of Cloud Computing (OJCC), vol. 3, no. 1, pp. 1-7, 2016. A revised definition of dew computing has been proposed. This definition emphasizes two key features of dew computing: independence and collaboration. A group of dew computing categories have also been described. These categories may inspire new applications. https://www.ronpub.com/publications/ojcc/OJCC_2016v3i1n02_YingweiWang.html
Due to the fast progress in the Dew Computing research area, “Open Journal of Cloud Computing” is going to publish a Special Issue on Dew Computing (DC-2016). The official Call For Paper is at the following link: http://www.ronpub.com/OJCC/cfp-si/2016/DC-2016 Here we list the scope and the important dates of this CFP: Scope: The special issue welcomes original, high-quality research papers, short communications, reviews and visionary papers, including but NOT limited to the following topics: Dew Computing Theory NOTE: The sooner that authors submit their papers, the sooner that authors get the notification. Every paper, once accepted, will be published immediately.
This is Figure 1 of Resource [12] : The decade phases of the development of ICT (Information and Communications Technologies) and its relations to the G-phenomena and Distributed Computing Hierarchy: Cloud Computing (CC), Fog Computing (FC) and Dew Computing (DC). In this figure, the development phase of Cloud Computing is marked as 2010, the development phase of Fog Computing was marked as 2015, and the development phase of Dew Computing was marked as 2020.
