workshop

This is the second workshop in CIKM conference that addresses the challenge of large data management based on cloud computing infrastructure. This workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners in cloud computing and data-intensive system design, programming, parallel algorithms, data management, scientific applications, and information-based applications to maximize performance, minimize cost and improve the scale of their endeavors.

This workshop welcomes papers that address fundamental research issues in this challenging area, with emphasis on personal and social applications of cloud-based data management. We also encourage papers to report on system level research related to cloud computing and data-intensive computing. A number of invited papers will also be solicited.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to

* cloud computing infrastructure for big data storage and computing;
* Cloud privacy and security;
* Cloud-based system designs including architecture, scalability, economy, consistence-availability-partition (CAP), and security;
* Services discovery and content distribution in cloud computing infrastructures;
* cross-platform interoperability;
* Query processing and indexing in cloud computing systems;
* Access control in cloud computing systems;
* Service-level agreements, business models, and pricing policies;
* novel data-intensive computing applications;
* language for massively parallel query execution;
* data intensive scalable computing;
* content distribution systems for big data;
* data management within and across data centers;
* large scale analytical methodology and algorithm
