JFYI: some background for ICFC 2019 event:
=================================================================================
IEEE International Conference on Fog Computing (ICFC 2019) June 24-26, 2019 Prague, Czech Republic http://conferences.computer.org/ICFC/2019/ Co-located with the IEEE International Conference on Cloud Engineering (IC2E 2019) ==================================================================================
Important Dates
--------------------
Paper registration and abstract: Nov 1st, 2018 Full paper submission due: Nov 8th, 2018 Notification of paper acceptance: Jan. 20th, 2019 Workshop and tutorial proposals due: Nov 11, 2018 Notification of proposal acceptance: Nov 18, 2018
So I have a draft of a positioning paper [0]... what missed that event :)
tl;dr: It is known that causal consistency is the best suitable for high-latency, high-scale and highly dynamic nature of membership in clusters... which is exactly what multiple autonomous control planes represent in edge clouds for post-MVP phases.
Even though the paper didn't make it for ICFC 2019 acceptance as I naively planned (not), hopefully we as community could find some use of it in future. Like collaboratively improving its contents, or making it readable by humans, then pushing it for other places for wider audience. It's just free for any use, please go for it! :)
Or maybe we could prototyping something for OpenStack edge post-MVP cases out of SwiftCloud [1] just like the folks did for CockroachDB [2]? Note, while that github repo does not look super alive and driven by many contributions, that work looks really promising, you can read more for the theoretical fundamentals of it in "SwiftCloud: Fault-Tolerant Geo-Replication Integrated all the Way to the Client Machine" and "SwiftCloud: Write fast, read in the past: Causal consistency for client-side applications". That really buys to me to put it all client-sided at the edge and make it doing all geo-replication dances.
Ofc there is more for prototyping. For example, building some Bolt-on'ish shim middleware on top of any popular eventual consistent storage, like Riak (not sure there is opensource implementations for Bolt-on yet). Or trying something at api-to-api level for high-level synchronization with "delayed replication" of queued operations.
PS. @Pierre and @Adrien I gave it a quick glimpse into some of the sources you linked for the related work section of the positioning paper, thank you a lot for that and x1000 for authoring such things. So the draft now almost hits the recommended limit of a 6 pages, so I think there should be pretty much it for a positioning paper.

Hi,
Getting a look to this post could also make sense: http://beyondtheclouds.github.io/blog/openstack/cockroachdb/2018/06/04/evalu...

Hello Bogdan,
In the context of data management in edge computing, you may be interested by research done by the Discovery Initiative: http://beyondtheclouds.github.io/publications.html I am adding Adrien Lèbre to the thread, he may be able to point you to the publications most relevant to your whitepaper draft.
Best wishes, Pierre Riteau

Hi All -
We have an IRC meeting at 1100 UTC (about an hour’s time) in channel #openstack-meeting. Everyone is welcome.
Today’s agenda is here:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Scientific_SIG#IRC_Meeting_February_27th_201...
Today’s main event is that we have Ildikó Vancsa joining us to talk about edge computing use cases and find overlap with Scientific SIG use cases.
Cheers, Stig
Edge computing is a *great* topic for lot of future research work indeed. Thank you for this useful announcement, appreciated! I'll attend at least the first half of it, and in case I'll miss the agenda item that I placed at the end of the list, please be kind to review that research request with my absence as well. Thanks!
