***ABOUT IEEE CLOUD AND IEEE SERVICES CONGRESS***

The 2020 IEEE World Congress on Services (SERVICES) will be held on July 7-11, 2020 in Beijing, China. The Congress is solely sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society under the auspice of the Technical Committee on Services Computing (TCSVC). The scope of the Congress will cover all aspects of services computing and applications, current or emerging. It covers various systems and networking research pertaining to cloud, edge and Internet-of-Things (IoT), as well as technologies for intelligent computing, learning, big data and blockchain applications, while addressing critical issues such as high performance, security, privacy, dependability, trustworthiness, and cost-effectiveness. The Congress will also include symposia and workshops supporting deep-dive discussions on emerging important topics, and complement the Congress program with industry and application presentations and panels. Authors are invited to prepare early and submit original papers to any of these conferences at www.easychair.org. All submitted manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by at least 3 reviewers. Accepted and presented papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press.

IEEE CLOUD is a flagship conference focusing on innovative cloud computing across all "as a service" categories, including Network, Infrastructure, Platform, Software, and Function.
