[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] *Call for papers:* The 3rd International Symposium on Privacy and Security in Cloud and Big Data (PriSec 2014), 3-5 December 2014, Sydney, Australia Website: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/prisec2014/ Important dates: Deadline for Paper Submission: *July 30, 2014* Notification of Acceptance: September 25, 2014 Camera Ready Copies: October 15, 2014 Submissions: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=prisec2014 Publications: All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society (EI indexed). Selected papers will be invited to special issues of BdCloud in Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Journal of Network and Computer Applications, Journal of Computer and System Sciences, and IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing. ------------ Introduction: Cloud Computing and Big Data are two emerging paradigms in the recent developments of information technology. Cloud Computing enables computing resources to be provided as IT services in a pay-as-you-go fashion with high efficiency and effectiveness. Big data is an emerging paradigm applied to datasets whose size is beyond the ability of commonly used software tools to capture, manage, and process the data within a tolerable elapsed time.With Variety/Volume/Velocity/Value/Veracity/, Big Data such as medical records need to be protected in an scalable and efficient way. Information privacy and security is one of most concerned issues for Cloud Computing due to its open environment with very limited user-side control. It is also an important challenge for Big Data as estimated by IDC. In addition, Cloud Computing and Big Data are coming together in practice. As estimated by IDC, by 2020, about 40% data globally would be touched with Cloud Computing. Cloud Computing provides strong storage, computation and distributed capability in support of Big Data processing. As such, there is a strong demand to investigate information privacy and security challenges in both Cloud Computing and Big Data. This symposium aims at providing such forum for researchers, practitioners and developers from different background areas such as distributed computing, cloud computing, big data, database, data mining, information security and privacy protection areas to exchange the latest experience, research ideas and synergic research and development on fundamental issues and applications about security and privacy issues in cloud and big data environments.

The development of cloud computing over the last few years represents the single most important contributor to the big data trend, with cloud infrastructure such as compute, storage and analytical tools and apps now widely available. The convergence of big data and cloud computing are having far reaching implications that indeed are changing the world. MapReduce, a widely-adopted parallel and distributed programming paradigm for processing large-scale data sets, becomes much more powerful, scalable, elastic and cost-effective when integrated in cloud systems as it can benefits from the salient characteristics of cloud computing. Based on the MapReduce paradigm and other relevant techniques like HDFS, a series of applications and higher level platforms such as Hadoop, Hive, Twister, Spark, Pregel, to name a few, have been proposed and developed. MapReduce and the emerging tools in cloud are ideal for enterprises with large data centres and scientific communities to address the challenges posed by big data applications. The MapReduce paradigm itself, emerging MapReduce based big data tools and applications, and big data infrastructure such as cloud systems are evolving fast, and therefore need extensive investigations from various research communities. This symposium aims at providing a forum for researchers, practitioners and developers from different background areas such as cloud computing, distributed computing, large-scale data management and database areas to exchange the latest experience, research ideas and synergic research and development on fundamental issues and applications about MapReduce, MapReduce based platforms and emerging big data infrastructure.

[P2P] CFP: IEEE Cloud Computing Magazine SI on "Cloud-based Smart Evacuation Systems for Emergency Management"
by DEEPAK PUTHAL 08 Jul '14

[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] *Call for papers:* IEEE Cloud Computing Magazine Special Issue on "Cloud-based Smart Evacuation Systems for Emergency Management" IMPORTANT DATES ***************************** Submissions Due: August 20, 2014 DETAILS ABOUT THE ISSUE ***************************** Natural and man-made emergencies, such as tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, and epidemics pose a significant threat to human societies. The lessons learned from the growing number of recent emergencies, such as Japan's earthquake (2011), Katrina hurricane (2005), Colorado flood (2013), Queensland flooding in Australia (2010), Haiti earthquake (2010), has put impetus on the development of emergency evacuation planning systems. Well-coordinated emergency management activities that involves guiding of citizens out of danger areas, placement of medical team to the most appropriate locations, and real-time planning of evacuation routes before and after a disaster play a significant role in saving lives, protecting critical infrastructures, and minimizing causalities. For example, due to lack of proper evacuation planning system, 25 people lost their lives in the first 30 minutes while attempting to flee their Oakland Hills neighborhood in California during a wildfire in 1991. The management of evacuation activities such as guiding people out of dangerous areas and coordinating rescue teams is dependent on the availability of historical data as well as on the effective real-time integration and utilisation of data streaming from multiple sources including on-site sensors, social media feeds and messaging on mobile devices (i.e. text messaging, location, etc.). However, there is a pitfall; the growing ubiquity of on-site sensors, social media and mobile devices means there are more sources of outbound traffic, which ultimately results in the creation of a tsunami of data, beginning shortly after the onset of emergency events. This data tsunami phenomenon is being described as a new grand challenge in computing: The 'Big Data' problem. Over 20 million tweets posted during Hurricane Sandy (2012) lead to an instance of the Big Data problem. During the 2010 Haiti earthquake, text messaging via mobile phones and Twitter made headlines as being crucial for disaster response, but only some 100,000 messages were actually processed by government agencies due to lack of automated and scalable data processing infrastructure. Design and development of evacuation systems for emergency management requires a complete ICT (Information and Communication Technology) paradigm shift in a way that systems do not get overwhelmed by incoming data volume, data rate, data sources, and data types. New cloud-based techniques are needed that can extract meaningful information from large-scaled data in real-time, while avoiding unnecessary data transmission or storage. Future initiative should focus on developing cloud-based techniques to improve the performance of multiple data stream processing system while balancing computational complexity and Quality of Service (e.g., decision making delay, alert generation delay, etc.). *We solicit papers and columns from both industrial and academic research communities.* SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ***************************** Submissions will be subject to the IEEE Cloud Computing Magazines' peer-review process. Articles should be at most 6,000 words, with a maximum of 15 references, and should be understandable to a broad audience of people interested in cloud computing, big data and related application areas. ¬ The writing style should be down to earth, practical, and original. Authors should not assume that the audience will have specialized experience in a particular sub field. All accepted articles will be edited according to the IEEE Computer Society style guide. Submit your papers to Manuscript Central at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cs-cc. If any questions please contact the guest editors.

Such datasets are often from various sources (Variety) yet unstructured such as social media, sensors, scientific applications, surveillance, video and image archives, Internet texts and documents, Internet search indexing, medical records, business transactions and web logs; and are of large size (Volume) with fast data in/out (Velocity). More importantly, big data has to be of high value (Value) and establish trust in it for business decision making (Veracity). Cloud computing is positioning itself as an emerging platform for delivering information infrastructures and resources as IT services. Customers (enterprises or individuals) can provision and deploy Cloud services via pay-as-you-go pricing models saving huge capital investments in their own IT infrastructures. As estimated by IDC, by 2020, about 40% data globally would be touched with Cloud Computing. Cloud Computing provides strong storage, computation and distributed capability in support of Big Data processing. BDCloud (Big Data and Cloud Computing) was created to provide a prime international forum for researchers, industry practitioners and domain experts to exchange the latest advances in Big Data and Cloud Computing as well as their synergy.

Cloud Computing enables computing resources to be provided as IT services in a pay-as-you-go fashion with high efficiency and effectiveness. Big data is an emerging paradigm applied to datasets whose size is beyond the ability of commonly used software tools to capture, manage, and process the data within a tolerable elapsed time.With Variety/Volume/Velocity/Value/Veracity/, Big Data such as medical records need to be protected in an scalable and efficient way. Information privacy and security is one of most concerned issues for Cloud Computing due to its open environment with very limited user-side control. It is also an important challenge for Big Data as estimated by IDC. In addition, Cloud Computing and Big Data are coming together in practice.
