************************IEEE BDCloud -2019 CFP************************

*The 9th IEEE International Conference on Big Data and Cloud Computing
(BDCloud 2019)*

Xiamen, China, 16-18 December 2019




*Sponsored by*IEEE, IEEE Computer Society, IEEE Technical Committee of
Scalable Computing (TCSC)，and Minjiang University

*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) 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.



The 9th IEEE International Conference on Big Data and Cloud Computing
(BDCloud 2019) is the next event in a series of highly successful
International Conferences, previously held as BDCloud 2018 (Australia), BDCloud
2017 (Italy), BDCloud 2016 (Atlanta, USA), BDCloud 2015 (Chengdu, China),
BDCloud 2014 (Sydney, Australia), CGC2013 (Karlsruhe,Germany), CGC2012
(Xiangtan,
China), and CGC 2011 (Australia).

BDCloud 2019will be hosted in Xiamen, a beautiful port city in southeast
China's Fujian province, China, beside the Taiwan Strait. Xiamen is ideally
placed to base a trip to branch out visiting places such as the romantic
Gulangyu Island, the famous South Putuo Temple, and Water Garden Expo Park.
Part of Xiamen's charm lies in its narrow alleyways and small, hidden shops.

Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers to BDCloud 2019. All
accepted papers are expected to be included in IEEE Xplore and will be
indexed by Engineering Index (EI). The authors of selected best papers will
be invited post conference to extend their contributions for special issues
of prestigious journals to be planned in conjunction with the conference.
