Reisslein, Martin
Martin Reisslein is a Professor in the School of Electrical, Computer, and Energy Engineering at Arizona State University (ASU), Tempe, and an external associated investigator with the Centre for Tactile Internet with Human-in-the-Loop (CeTI), Technische Universit\"{a}t Dresden, Germany. He received the Ph.D. in systems engineering from the University of Pennsylvania in 1998. He currently serves as Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing, the IEEE Transactions on Education, and IEEE Access, as well as Computer Networks (Elsevier). He is an Associate Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials and a Co-Editor-in-Chief of Optical Switching and Networking (Elsevier). He chaired the steering committee of the IEEE Transactions on Multimedia from 2017-2019 and was an Associate Editor of the IEEE/ACM Transaction on Networking from 2009-2013. He received the IEEE Communications Society Best Tutorial Paper Award in 2008, a Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Research Award from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation in 2015, as well as a DRESDEN Senior Fellowship in 2016 and in 2019.

Mahmoodi, Toktam
Toktam Mahmoodi is a Professor of communication Engineering and Director of the Centre for Telecommunications Research (CTR) in Department of Engineering at King's College London. Her research focuses on the areas of mobile and cloud networking, and includes network intelligence, edge learning and networking, ultra-low latency networking, and network modelling and optimization. She also works on applications of mobile communications in the healthcare, smart cities, emergency services, industrial networks, and intelligent transportation.

Strufe, Thorsten
Thorsten Strufe is professor for Privacy and IT-Security at Technische Universität Dresden, vice speaker of the German Cluster of Excellence on Tactile Internet with human-in-the-loop CeTI?, PI of the Joint Research Centre HAEC?, PI of the Graduate School "RoSI?", and PI of the 5G-Lab Germany.
His research interests lie in the areas of large scale distributed systems and social networking services, with an emphasis on privacy and resilience. Recently, he has focused on studying user behavior and security in online social networks and possibilities to provide privacy-preserving and secure social networking services, partially through decentralization. One of the challenges driving him is the question, how competitive online and mobile services can be created without comprehensive collection of personal information, which hence respect the privacy of their users. He was appointed professor for for Peer-to-Peer networks at Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany, from 2009 to 2014, and visiting professor for Dependable Distributed Systems at University of Mannheim, Germany, throughout 2011.

Li, Shu-Chen
Shu-Chen Li obtained her Ph.D. from the University of Oklahoma, USA (1994) and completed her postdoctoral training at the McGill University in Montréal, Canada (1995), prior to her 17-year research career at the Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Human Development in Berlin, Germany. After being a senior research scientist and the principal investigator of the Neuromodulation of Lifespan Cognition Project at the MPI, she took up a full professorship as the chair of Lifespan Developmental Neuroscience in the Department of Psychology at TU Dresden (Technische Universität Dresden) in September 2012. She serves on the editorial boards of various journals (e.g., Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews) and grant review panels
