RISE-IoT Convergence Workshop
RISE-IoT Convergence Workshop
Advancing Edge Intelligence
Through Human-Centered Systems
The Resilient Intelligent Sensing & Edge Internet of Thing (RISE-IoT) initiative brings together researchers, industry partners, and public-sector stakeholders to shape the next generation of intelligent, secure, and human-centered edge systems. This inaugural workshop will align technical capabilities, application needs, and testbed strategies to lay the groundwork for future center-scale research efforts.
Core Technical Focus Areas:
April 3, 2026
9:30am – 4:00pm
Virginia Tech
3625 Potomac Ave
Alexandria, VA
By the end of the workshop, participants will:
- • Identify a focused set of shared research thrusts suitable for center-scale and multi-investigator funding opportunities
- • Align technical priorities across sensing, communication, learning, and systems design to support convergent research
- • Define candidate testbed strategies that can be leveraged across multiple application domains
- • Establish collaboration pathways among faculty, industry, and external partners to support near-term and long-term funding
