报告摘要（中英文）： 

Abstract: with the advancement of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) edge computing and communications from the sky become possible and indeed provide an effective way to complement the current ground-based horizontal edge computing and communications. This talk starts with a brief introduction of UAV-assisted wireless communications, and then moves on discussing the necessity of a close collaboration of the two important resources in any ICT system, namely, communication and computation, again in the context of UAVs. Some algorithms for joint resource (both computing and communications) allocation and UAV trajectory design are introduced. The talk concludes with discussions on future opportunities in this exciting research area. 

随着无人机UAV的发展，来自空中的移动边缘计算和通信MEC变得可行；而且这种垂直计算和通信是对传统地面上的（水平）计算和通信的有效补充。这个报告首先给出对UAV辅助的无线通信给予简单介绍，然后在UAV场景下讨论当今任何ICT系统都必不可少的两种基本资源：计算和通信-紧密融合的必要性，并给出二者融合的系统架构；并在此基础上给出资源（包括通信和计算资源）和UAV航程的联合设计算法。最后报告将讨论空中边缘计算和通信这个新领域未来所面临的机遇和挑战。
