<p style="margin-bottom:8pt;text-align:justify;background:white"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">Cloud
computing provides a large range of services and virtually unlimited
available resources for users. New applications, such
as virtual reality and smart building control, have emerged due to the
large number of resources and services brought by cloud computing.
However, the delay-sensitive applications face the problem of large
latency, especially when several smart devices and
objects are getting involved in human’s life such as the case of smart
cities or Internet of Things. Therefore, cloud computing is unable to
meet the requirements of low latency, location awareness, and mobility
support. To solve this problem, researchers
have introduced a trusted and dependable solution through the Fog and
the Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC) to put the services and resources of
the cloud closer to users, which facilitate the leveraging of available
services and resources in the edge networks.
By this, we are moving from the core (cloud data centers) to the edge
of the network closer to the users. FMEC dependability is based on
providing user centric service. The purpose of Fog and the Mobile Edge
Computing is to run the heavy real-time applications
at the network edge directly using the billions of connected mobile
devices.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:8pt;text-align:justify;background:white"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">Several
features enable the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing to be a perfect
paradigm to the aforementioned purpose, which are
the dense geographical deployment of servers, supporting mobility and
the closeness to users. As in every new technology, some challenges face
the vision of the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing, which are the
administrative policies and security concerns
(i.e. secure data storage, secure computation, network security, data
privacy, usage privacy, location privacy, etc). FMEC 2025 conference
aims to investigate the opportunities and requirements for Mobile Edge
Computing dominance. In addition, it seeks for
novel contributions that help mitigate Mobile Edge Computing
challenges. That is, the objective of FMEC 2025 is to provide a forum
for scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange new
ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of
Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC). FMEC 2025 is Technically
Co-Sponsored by IEEE Florida Section. Researchers are encouraged to
submit original research contributions in all major areas, which
include, but not limited to the following:</span></p>
