Research and applications on cloud computing and intelligent systems
have been extensively developed in the past years. We have witnessed
numerous successes in various critical sectors of our society. As
always, the IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing and
Intelligence Systems (CCIS) series provide a forum for researchers and
practitioners to exchange ideas, present their latest research work,
discuss challenging issues, and share experiences primarily in the
fields of cloud computing and intelligence systems. The past CCIS
conferences were held in Beijing (2011), Hangzhou (2012), and Shenzhen
& Hong Kong (2014), respectively. CCIS 2016, the 4th edition of this
series, will be held at Beijing, August 17-19, 2016. The theme of CCIS
2016 is embracing challenges of cloud computing and intelligent
technology at the age of big data. The conference features a
comprehensive technical program, including multiple interesting and
inspiring keynote speeches, frontline panel discussions, and technical
paper sessions.
