I am co-organizing the IEEE BigDataService 2015 conference and would like to cordially solicit paper contributions. The conference will take place from March 30 to April 2, 2015 in the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area.

Big data computing and services have received significant attention recently. The IEEE BigDataService 2015 conference aims to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners to exchange innovative ideas, latest research results, as well as practice experience and lessons on this topic. Its major objectives include big data applications in various domains such as healthcare, business and financing, education and learning, social networks and media, smart environment, sensors and Internet of things as well as technology aspects such as computing services and architecture, modeling, data mining and analytics, and database.

In particular, please consider submitting papers to my track, Big Data Information Banking, which is specifically designed for the library and information science field. This track includes the papers focusing on big data-related research in library and information science, including (but not limited to) big data information banking projects, policies, standards, business services and cost models, data sharing, exchange and management, data-intensive computing and services, data classification/indexing retrieval, storage and search solutions for digital libraries, and supporting infrastructures.

Paper Submission

We accept both regular and industrial paper submissions. All papers should be prepared using the IEEE format, and submitted via EasyChair. Research/survey papers have the page limited to 10 pages, experience/industry papers are limited to 6 pages.

All accepted papers will be published in IEEE BigDataService Proceedings by IEEE Computer Society Press (EI-Index) and included in IEEE Digital Library. Selected papers (extended versions) will be published in a special issue of the International Journal of Big Data Intelligence (IJBDL).
