SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

The challenge of Big Data continues to grow and is an active area of continuing research and technology development. This track focuses on techniques, experiences, applications, and lessons learned for large-scale/big data science, data intensive, and data analytics, particularly in the realms of high performance computing that lead organizations through major transformations.

The symposium is to address, explore and exchange information on the state-of-the-art and practice in the broad multidisciplinary field of Big Data Science. Participation is extended to researchers, designers, educators and interested parties in all disciplines and specialities.

The symposium aims at providing a forum to bring together researchers and scientists to share and exchange big data related research, technologies, experiences, and lessons for building various types large-scale data intensive and data analytics, with interoperability and coordination capabilities in a high performance and high availability setting.

This symposium solicits contributions that address contemporary and future challenges in big data Science, data analytics, and Data Intensive, particularly in collaboration systems, social networks and media, and information technologies.

BDAA topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

Theories and Methodologies for Big Data processing
Architectures, Frameworks and Design of Big Data processing systems
Distributed data-intensive computing systems
Managing large-scale big data platforms
Use of big data technologies for science (Hadoop, NoSQL/NewSQL, etc.)
Big data simulation, visualization, modeling tools, and algorithms
Big data intelligence and predictive analysis
(Analysis of dynamic data, such as those collected through sensors, etc.)
Discovery, Collection, and Extraction of information in Big Data sources
Processing of Big Data Streaming
Big Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery
Data Analytics techniques and solutions
Visualization of Big Data and Data Analytics
Applications using big data (WEB, Bio-Data, Industrial Data, etc.)
Big data business implications – Data culture
Experiences, Case Studies and Lessons Learned

Conference Policies

Only PDF files will be accepted, uploaded to the submission link above. Each paper will receive a minimum of three reviews. Papers will be selected based on their originality, relevance, significance, technical clarity and soundness, presentation, language, and references. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper, if accepted.
At least one of the authors of each accepted paper will have to register and attend the HPCS 2020 conference to present the paper at the Symposium as scheduled. By submitting the paper to the HPCS conference, all authors agree to abide by all HPCS conference paper submission, publication and presentation policies as well as following ethical and professional codes of conduct, including those of the professional co-sponsoring organizations. For more information, please refer to the Authors Info and Registration Info pages.

Proceedings

Accepted papers will be published in the Conference proceedings. Instructions for final manuscript format and requirements will be posted on the HPCS 2020 Conference web site. It is our intent to have the proceedings formally published in hard and soft copies and be available at the time of the conference.
The proceedings is projected to be included in the IEEE or ACM Digital Library and indexed in all major indexing services accordingly.

SPECIAL ISSUE

Plans are underway to have the best papers, in extended version, selected for possible publication in a reputable journal as special issue. Detailed information will soon be announced and will be made available on the conference website.

If you have any questions about paper submission or the Symposium, please contact the Symposium's organizers.
