[Chang V.]

Dear colleagues,

Open Journal of Big Data (OJBD) has a special issue: Delivery and Adoption of Big Data Services in Contemporary Organizations (DoBD-2015). We welcome papers demonstrating successful Big Data adoption, including review/evaluation, XXX as a Service, business model, architecture/framework, use cases, deliveries in healthcare/finance/education, case studies, security etc. Please refer to the information below for more details. We also organize top-tier international workshops that blend with high-quality journal submission and review processes.

Thanks and regards,

Victor

Delivery and Adoption of Big Data Services in Contemporary Organizations (DoBD-2015)
ABOUT:

This special issue aims at bringing together research in the areas of distributed computing, systems and software engineering, high performance computing, and service science. This collection of publications is useful for academics, researchers, and practitioners seeking the latest practices and knowledge in these fields. Big Data has transformed the way many organizations work and offers added value for operation management and service computing. There are reported benefits such as agility, resource consolidation, business opportunities, and green IT. There are cases where organizations can improve on their efficiency, technical performance, and usability in using or adopting Big Data services due to the fusion of mature technologies such as virtualization, web services, information retrieval, large scale data processing, visualization, storage and backup, high performance calculations, and APIs on mobile devices and Big Data. Thus, this makes an interesting observation to understand what types of services are offered and what their contributions can provide. We are seeking papers to demonstrate proofs-of-concept, design and implementations, successful case studies, and use cases of using or adopting Big Data.

SCOPE:

The special issue expects original, high-quality papers, including but NOT limited to the following fields:

  *   Use Cases
  *   Evaluation and review
  *   Infrastructure as a Service
  *   Platform as a Service
  *   Application as a Service
  *   How businesses and organizations use Big Data
  *   Technical implementations in healthcare, finance, or education
  *   Big Data services for healthcare, finance, or education
  *   Big Data adoption: case studies, frameworks, or models
  *   Simulations and experiments with reproducible steps
  *   Graphical Processing Unit techniques
  *   Big Data Storage
  *   New demonstrations in public clouds, private clouds, and hybrid clouds
  *   New business models and economics (quantitative or computational only)
  *   Architectures and frameworks (preferably quantitative or computational)
  *   Security
  *   Future research directions and emerging service technology innovation
  *   Reviews or challenges from social science, law, businesses, and non-ICT domains
