27 Aug '13

Call for Papers: IEEE Transaction on Emerging Topics in Computing (TETC) seeks original manuscripts for a Special Issue on *Big Data**.* CFP Website: http://www.swinflow.org/si/BigDataCFP.htm. Big Data consists of datasets that grow so large that they become awkward to work with using on-hand computer data and computation management tools. Difficulties include, but are not limited to, capture, storage, search, sharing, analytics, and visualizing. Working with data sets of increasing scale allows analysts to "spot business trends, prevent diseases, and combat crime." Big data size is beyond the ability of commonly used computer software and hardware tools to capture, manage, and process the data within a tolerable elapsed time, hence demanding new innovative solutions. It has attracted a high degree of interdisciplinary interest internationally. This special issue is focusing on this new strategic research area to address challenges about big data. Original andunpublished high-quality research results are solicited to explore various challenging topics that include, but are not limited to: · Big Data theoretical models, standards and theories · Innovative computer software and hardware architecture for Big Data processing · Big Data mining, advanced analytics and visualization · Large big data stream processing · Large-scale incremental, distributed and federated datasets · NoSQL data stores and DB scalability · Big Data sharing and privacy preserving · Big Data placement, scheduling, and optimization · MapReduce and new programming models for Big Data processing · Cloud Computing, cluster and high performance computing and storage infrastructure for Big Data · Performance characterization, evaluation and optimization · Simulation and debugging of Big Data systems and tools · Security, privacy, reliability and trust in Big Data · Volume, Velocity, Variety and Value of Big Data · Multiple source data processing and integration for Big Data · Resource scheduling and Service Level Agreement for Big Data processing · Distributed file systems, storage and computation management for Big Data · Large-scale scientific workflow in support of Big Data processing · Big data applications such as Medicine, Healthcare, Finance, Business, Retailing, Transportation and Science. Submitted articles must not have been previously published or currently submitted for journal publication elsewhere. Extended versions from conference papers such as The 2nd IEEE International Conference on Big Data Science and Engineering (*BDSE2013* - http://www.swinflow.org/confs/bdds2013/) must have at least 30% new content. As an author, you are responsible for understanding and adhering to our submission guidelines. You can access them at the IEEE Computer Society web site, www.computer.org. Please thoroughly read these before submitting your manuscript. TETC is the newest Transactions of the IEEE Computer Society with Open Access only. Please submit your paper to Manuscript Central at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tetc-cs Please note the following important dates. · Submission Deadline: October 15, 2013 · Reviews Completed: January 15, 2014 · Major Revisions Due (if Needed): February 15, 2014 · Reviews of Revisions Completed (if Needed): March 15, 2014 · Minor Revisions Due (if Needed): April 15, 2014 · Notification of Final Acceptance: May 15, 2014 · Publication Materials for Final Manuscripts Due: May 30, 2014 · Publication date: September 2014 Guest Editors: Jinjun Chen, University of Technology Sydney, Australia Surya Nepal, CSIRO Australia Jian Pei, Simon Fraser University, Canada Ivan Stojmenovic, University of Ottawa, Canada

The 2nd IEEE International Conference on Big Data Science and Engineering (BDSE2013), 3-5 December 2013, Sydney, Australia. Website: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/bdds2013/ Important dates: Submission Deadline: August 30, 2013 (firm) Authors Notification: September 25, 2013 Final Manuscript Due: October 15, 2013 Conference: 3-5 December 2013 Submissions: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/bdds2013/submission.htm Publications All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society (EI indexed). Selected papers will be recommended to special issues of Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience; Journal of Network and Computer Applications, Personal and Ubiquitous Computing, Journal of Systems and Software, Journal of Computer and System Sciences, and IEEE Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computing (special issue on Big Data). ------------ Introduction 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. 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). Various technologies are being discussed to support the handling of big data such as massively parallel processing databases, scalable storage systems, cloud computing platforms, and MapReduce. Distributed systems is a classical research discipline investigating various distributed computing technologies and applications such as cloud computing and MapReduce. With new paradigms and technolog! ies, distributed systems research keeps going with new innovative outcomes from both industry and academia. For example, wide deployment of MapReduce is a distributed programming paradigm and an associated implementation to support distributed computing over large datasets on cloud. BDSE (Big Data Science and Engineering) is created to provide a prime international forum for both researchers, industry practitioners and environment experts to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of Big Data, Distributed Systems and broadly related areas. BDSE 2013 is the next event in a series of highly successful International Conferences, previously held as BigDataMR-12 (Xiangtan, China November 2012), AHPCN-12 (Bradford, UK, June 2012), AHPCN-11 (Banff, Canada, September 2011), AHPCN-10 (Melbourne, Australia, September 2010), AHPCN-09 (Seoul, Korea, June 2009), AHPCN-08 (Dalian, China, September 2008). Scope and Topics The objective of the conference is to invite authors to submit original manuscripts that demonstrate and explore current advances in all aspects of big data and distributed computing.
