The federated learning can be utilized in conjunction with the blockchain technology to provide good privacy protection and reward distribution mechanism in the field of intelligent IOT in edge computing scenarios. Nonetheless, the synchronous federated learning ignores the waiting delay due to the heterogeneity of edge devices (different computing power, communication bandwidth, and dataset size). Moreover, the potential of smart contracts was not fully explored to do some flexible design. This paper investigates the fusion application based on the FLchain, which is the combination of asynchronous federated learning and blockchain, discusses the communication optimization, and explores the feasible design of smart contract to solve some problems.

현재의 네트워크 환경에서는 사용자들이 인터넷상의 여러 서버에 대하여 각각의 독립된 ID(Identity)를 사용하고 있기 때문에 사용자들이 많은 수의 ID와 패스워드를 관리해야하는 불편함이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 ID 관리 시스템을 사용하지만, 앞으로 도래할 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서는 유무선 네트워크상의 수많은 컴퓨터들이 유기적으로 연결되기 때문에 사용자 ID 및 패스워드 관리가 더욱 복잡해지고, 기존의 단일 신뢰영역(COT: Circle of Trust)의 ID 관리 시스템으로는 이러한 어려움을 해결하기에 충분하지 않다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해, 다중 신뢰영역 간의 federated ID 연동을 유선 컴퓨팅 환경에서뿐만 아니라 모바일 컴퓨팅 환경으로 확장하기 위한 federated ID 연동 모델을 제안하고 평가하였다.

With rapid growth in the complexity of large scale engineering systems, the application of multidisciplinary analysis and design optimization (MDO) in the engineering design process has garnered much attention. MDO addresses the challenge of integrating several different disciplines into the design process. Primary challenges of MDO include computational expense and poor scalability. The introduction of a distributed, collaborative computational environment results in better utilization of available computational resources, reducing the time to solution, and enhancing scalability. SORCER, a Java-based network-centric computing platform, enables analyses and design studies in a distributed collaborative computing environment. Two different optimization algorithms widely used in multidisciplinary engineering design-VTDIRECT95 and QNSTOP-are implemented on a SORCER grid. VTDIRECT95, a Fortran 95 implementation of D. R. Jones' algorithm DIRECT, is a highly parallelizable derivative-free deterministic global optimization algorithm. QNSTOP is a parallel quasi-Newton algorithm for stochastic optimization problems. The purpose of integrating VTDIRECT95 and QNSTOP into the SORCER framework is to provide load balancing among computational resources, resulting in a dynamically scalable process. Further, the federated computing paradigm implemented by SORCER manages distributed services in real time, thereby significantly speeding up the design process. Part 1 covers SORCER and the algorithms, Part 2 presents results for aircraft panel design with curvilinear stiffeners.

A flood of information has occurred with the rise of the internet and digital devices in the fourth industrial revolution era. Every millisecond, massive amounts of structured and unstructured data are generated; smartphones, wearable devices, sensors, and self-driving cars are just a few examples of devices that currently generate massive amounts of data in our daily. Machine learning has been considered an approach to support and recognize patterns in data in many areas to provide a convenient way to other sectors, including the healthcare sector, government sector, banks, military sector, and more. However, the conventional machine learning model requires the data owner to upload their information to train the model in one central location to perform the model training. This classical model has caused data owners to worry about the risks of transferring private information because traditional machine learning is required to push their data to the cloud to process the model training. Furthermore, the training of machine learning and deep learning models requires massive computing resources. Thus, many researchers have jumped to a new model known as "Federated Learning". Federated learning is emerging to train Artificial Intelligence models over distributed clients, and it provides secure privacy information to the data owner. Hence, this paper implements Federated Averaging with a Deep Neural Network to classify the handwriting image and protect the sensitive data. Moreover, we compare the centralized machine learning model with federated averaging. The result shows the centralized machine learning model outperforms federated learning in terms of accuracy, but this classical model produces another risk, like privacy concern, due to the data being stored in the data center. The MNIST dataset was used in this experiment.

As 5G and AI continue to develop, there has been a significant surge in the healthcare industry. The COVID-19 pandemic has posed immense challenges to the global health system. This study proposes an FL-supported edge computing model based on federated learning (FL) for predicting clinical outcomes of COVID-19 patients during hospitalization. The model aims to address the challenges posed by the pandemic, such as the need for sophisticated predictive models, privacy concerns, and the non-IID nature of COVID-19 data. The model utilizes the FATE framework, known for its privacy-preserving technologies, to enhance predictive precision while ensuring data privacy and effectively managing data heterogeneity. The model's ability to generalize across diverse datasets and its adaptability in real-world clinical settings are highlighted by the use of SHAP values, which streamline the training process by identifying influential features, thus reducing computational overhead without compromising predictive precision. The study demonstrates that the proposed model achieves comparable precision to specific machine learning models when dataset sizes are identical and surpasses traditional models when larger training data volumes are employed. The model's performance is further improved when trained on datasets from diverse nodes, leading to superior generalization and overall performance, especially in scenarios with insufficient node features. The integration of FL with edge computing contributes significantly to the reliable prediction of COVID-19 patient outcomes with greater privacy. The research contributes to healthcare technology by providing a practical solution for early intervention and personalized treatment plans, leading to improved patient outcomes and efficient resource allocation during public health crises.

연합학습은 학습데이터의 전송없이 모델의 학습을 수행할 수 있는 학습방법이다. IoT 혹은 헬스케어 분야는 사용자의 개인정보를 다루는 만큼 정보유출에 민감하여 시스템 디자인에 많은 주의를 기울여야 하지만 연합학습을 사용하는 경우 데이터가 수집되는 디바이스에서 데이터가 이동하지 않기 때문에 개인정보 유출에 자유로운 학습방법으로 각광받고 있다. 이에 따라 많은 연합학습 구현체가 개발되었으나 연합학습을 사용하는 시스템의 개발과 운영을 위한 시스템 설계에 관한 구체적인 연구가 부족하다. 본 연구에서는 연합학습을 실제 프로젝트에 적용하여 IoT 디바이스에 배포하고자 할 때 연합학습의 수명주기, 코드 버전 관리, model serving, 디바이스 모니터링에 대한 대책이 필요함을 보이고 이러한 점을 보완해주는 개발환경에 대한 설계를 제안하고자 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템은 중단 없는 model-serving을 고려하였고 소스코드 및 모델 버전 관리와 디바이스 상태 모니터링, 서버-클라이언트 학습 스케쥴 관리기능을 포함한다.
