Papers describing results of theoretical and/or practical significance are solicited. Experimental, modelling and simulation studies are all in the scope of the conference. Work focusing on novel performance evaluation methods or providing insights on design and runtime management tradeoffs are particularly encouraged.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
Big data and advanced machine learning techniques for system optimisation and design
Cloud/edge/fog technologies
Computer architectures, multi-core processors and memory systems
Computer networks, protocols and algorithms
Databases and big data systems and technologies
Energy efficient computer systems
Internet of Things
Mobile systems
Multimedia systems
Operating systems and virtualization technologies
Security in computer and communication systems
Smart grids and cyber-physical systems
Social networks
Storage and file systems
Web systems, enterprise applications and web services
Wireless, mobile, ad-hoc and sensor networks

Submissions must be formatted using two-columns and may be up to 8 pages in length, including all tables, figures, appendices, and references. We also welcome 4 page short paper submissions.

Proceedings will be published by IEEE.
