*CFP: The IEEE International Conference on Smart Cloud 2016 (SmartCloud
2016)*
*(IEEE SmartCloud 2016)*
Nov. 18th-20th, New York, USA
 http://csis.pace.edu/CSCloud/sc2016/index.html

*IEEE SmartCloud 2016 will be held at Columbia University, New York, USA.*

As a novel technology, cloud computing implementations have been booming in
recent years. Align with the development of data mining and big data, cloud
computing has been an efficient approach for delivering intelligent
services and forming advanced distributed systems. Empowering the existing
infrastructure by using cloud computing techniques has been considered a
dramatically significant issue for both academia and industry. Therefore,
making cloud computing "smart" has a giant demand in multiple fields, from
telehealth to e-learning, from vehicular systems to mobile applications. IEEE
SmartCloud 2016 aims to collect recent academic achievements in novel
techniques, developments, empirical studies, and new developments in cloud
computing. Innovative technical applications in clouds are highly
encouraged. The objective of IEEE SmartCloud 2016 is to provide a forum for
scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange their new
ideas, novel results, work in progress and experience on all aspects of
smart computing and cloud computing.
