| Synopsis: |
| The 1st ReQuEST workshop aims to bring together multidisciplinary researchers in systems, compilers, architecture and machine learning to optimize the quality vs. efficiency Pareto optimality of deep learning systems on complete hardware/software platforms in a standardized, reproducible and comparable fashion. The target application for the first incarnation of ReQuEST will be the ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC) and will focus solely on optimizing inference on real systems. Restricting the competition to a single application domain will allow us to test an open-source tournament infrastructure, validate it across multiple platforms and environments, and prepare a dedicated live scoreboard with the "winning" solutions. For future incarnations of ReQuEST, we will provide broader application coverage. The workshop co-located with ASPLOS 2018 will be the opportunity for the participants to share their research and implementation insights with the research community. A common academic and industrial panel will be held at the end of the workshop to discuss how to improve common SW/HW co-design methodology for deep learning and other real-world applications. |

| Synopsis: |
| Cloud computing is today the reference paradigm for large-scale data storage and processing due to the convenient and efficient network access to configurable resources that can be easily adjusted according to the users’ needs. Although the benefits of cloud computing are tremendous, security and privacy concerns have still a detrimental impact on the adoption and acceptability of cloud services. In fact, users as well as companies that rely on cloud storage and computation services lose the direct control over the systems managing their data and applications, thus putting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data at risk. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners who are interested in discussing the security, privacy, and data protection issues emerging in cloud scenarios, and possible solutions to them. |
