INTRODUCTION<br>

With the rapid development of high-performance embedded chips, the computing power of edge devices has been greatly enhanced, enabling the devices to handle computation-intensive tasks in real time. More and more artificial intelligence (Al) applications are
migrating to edge computing platforms for ensuring real-time response. The combination of edge computing and Al has given rise to edge intelligence, which is an emerging technology that integrates the core capabilities of network, computing, storage, and applications.
Edge intelligence can provide users with high-quality intelligent services more efficiently by deploying intelligent algorithms on edge devices closer to users. Compared with Al models deployed on the cloud, edge intelligence has the advantages of lower power
consumption, shorter latency, higher security, and closer to users. Therefore, edge intelligence has become a hot research topic in academia in recent years. In addition, Huawei, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Cisco, and other major global enterprises have also
launched their layout on this aspect, in order to accelerate the development of precision agriculture, smart healthcare, smart city, industrial Internet of Things, and other fields and related industries.</div>

ICESS-2025 is a global forum for researchers and developers from academia, industry, and government to present and discuss emerging ideas and trends in embedded software and systems. The conference has a broad scope covering the design, implementation, optimization,
and validation of embedded software and systems in various domains. ICESS-2025 will be hosted in Exeter, the capital city of Devon and provides the county with a central base for education, medicine, religion, commerce and culture.</div>

Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers to ICESS-2025. All accepted papers are expected to be included in IEEE Xplore and will be indexed by Engineering Index (EI). The authors of selected best papers will be invited post conference to extend
their contributions for special issues of prestigious journals to be planned in conjunction with the conference.</div>
