Edge Computing, Vehicle Computing, Autonomous Driving, and Connected Health

Weisong Shi is an Alumni Distinguished Professor and Chair of the Department of Computer and Information Sciences at the University of Delaware (UD), where he leads the Connected and Autonomous Research (CAR) Laboratory. He is an internationally renowned expert in edge computing, autonomous driving, and connected health. His pioneer paper, "Edge Computing: Vision and Challenges,” has been cited more than 8000 times. Before joining UD, he was a professor at Wayne State University (2002-2022). He served in multiple administrative roles, including Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies at the College of Engineering and Interim Chair of the Computer Science Department. Dr. Shi also served as a National Science Foundation (NSF) program director (2013-2015). Dr. Shi is the Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Internet Computing Magazine and Elsevier Smart Health. He is the founding steering committee chair of three conferences, including the ACM/IEEE Symposium on Edge Computing (SEC), the IEEE/ACM International Conference on Connected Health (CHASE), and the IEEE International Conference on Mobility (MOST). He is the General Chair of ACM MobiCom'24, the flagship conference on Mobile Computing and Wireless Networking. He is a fellow of IEEE, a distinguished scientist of ACM, a member of the NSF CISE Advisory Committee and CCC Council.
