In today's rapidly evolving tech landscape, operating systems are advancing toward frameworks that enable greater connectivity, intelligence, and distributed capabilities. This shift necessitates developing systems (encompassing both software and hardware) that emphasize security, performance, compatibility, and simplicity while accommodating the demands of intelligent, interconnected environments. Recent advancements in AI present transformative opportunities for connected systems, particularly through efficient, resource-friendly inference frameworks and AI-driven system capabilities. The rapid development of open-source operating systems illustrates this trend. For instance, OpenHarmony, a fast-growing platform for connected devices, has achieved significant adoption in recent years, now powering over 100 million commercial devices. Such advancements highlight the potential for innovative solutions that bridge intelligent systems and interconnected devices.
The Workshop on Operating System Research for Connected Intelligence aims to create an inclusive platform for discussing the challenges and opportunities in operating system research for interconnected, intelligent systems. The workshop seeks to bring together researchers, system architects, and developers to shape the future of operating systems in the age of connected intelligence.
This workshop provides a forum for researchers and practitioners to present the state of research and practice in system researches on connected smart devices. If the researches and practices are based on open source OSes (e.g., OpenHarmony), it will be better. Here are the key topics of interest for short papers (but not limited to):
All deadlines are at 11:59pm Anywhere on Earth (AOE).
