CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------------------

The 'Cloud' is a natural evolution of distributed computing and the widespread adaption of virtualization and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Services computing is a new cross-discipline subject that covers the science and technology needed to bridge the gap between business services and IT services. In cloud computing, IT-related capabilities and resources are provided as services, via the Internet and on-demand, accessible without requiring detailed knowledge of the underlying technology.

SC2 2019 is an important forum for researchers and industry practitioners to exchange information regarding advancements in the state of art and practice of IT-driven cloud computing technologies and services, as well as to identify emerging research topics and define the future directions of cloud and services computing.

IEEE SC2 2019 welcomes paper submissions on innovative work from researchers in academia industry and government describing original research work in Big Data. Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version (with at least 30% new material) for review and publication in special issues of international journals.

IEEE SC2 2019 will be held on Nov. 18-21, 2019, co-located with IEEE DataCom 2019, IEEE SOCA 2019 and IOV 2019, in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Cloud architecture
