CALL FOR RESEARCH PAPERS

The data produced by experiments, sensor networks, simulations, or
business operations with state-of-the-art technology in science and
industry is tremendous. At the same time, service-oriented organizations
are replacing static infrastructure when it comes to IT provisioning and
usage. Both trends pose significant challenges for scientific and
technological progress.

The Research Paper Sessions of the conference provide first-class open
forums for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government
to present and discuss issues, trends, and results to shape the future of
cloud computing and big data.

The Research Paper Sessions will be held on Tuesday, September 29 and on
Wednesday, September 30, 2015.

We encourage the submission of high-quality papers reporting original work
in theoretical, experimental, and industrial research and development in
the following areas:

Cloud Computing
•Novelties in cloud infrastructures, architectures, and models
•Cloud reliability
•Private and public clouds
•Federation of infrastructures, interoperability techniques in
heterogeneous cloud environments
•Security and privacy in the cloud
•Cloud management
•HPC in the cloud
•Big data in the cloud
•Novel cloud programming models
•Cloud applications and services (SaaS)

Big Data
•Algorithms, models, and systems
•Big data architectures and infrastructure
•Data quality and integration
•Data management and data life cycle
•Data mining, information retrieval, and knowledge extraction
•Security and privacy for big data
•Big data analytics (visual, text, statistical, but also threat detection)
•Social media and mobile communication
•Big data and smart data applications in science and industry
•Future trends
