BIGIoT 2014 - IEEE International Workshop on Big Data Management for the Internet of Things

A huge number of sensors, actuators and tags are getting
networked these days. This leads to the "Internet of Things",
and provides smart and intelligent services to human society.
However, this now raises the next question; how should we use
the "Big Data" associated to, or collected from, those things?
They say that it potentially contains the seeds of services,
profiles of social-phenoma, even social knowledge and intelligence.
However, we have not yet found systematic solutions for managing
them effectively, and we sometimes fail to extract valuable
information from, or to provide advanced services with, the
dataset. Thus, in this workshop, in order to discuss and discover
better solutions, we welcome papers that explore service platforms
(i.e., network systems, architectures, data models and algorithms)
that effectively integrate "Internet of Things" and "Big Data".
The workshop topics include, but are not limited to:
- Large-scale monitoring platforms
- Large-scale control platforms
- Data analysis and data applications
- Control schemes and decision making
- Data models and algorithms
- NoSQL data management
- Service design and use cases
- System architecture and implementation
- Communication protocols
- Distributed processing (overlays, Hadoop-based, etc.)
- Privacy management and anonymization
- Social embedding of applications
- Application case studies
- Performance, scalability, robustness
We respect the works inspired by practical studies with real
world interactions because this workshop wants to input the story
of real social needs or industrial requirements into the discussion.
We also welcome work-in-progress papers.

Deadline for paper submission: March 23rd, 2014
Notification of acceptance: April 20th, 2014
Camera-ready due: April 28th, 2014
* Submission
Papers must be submitted electronically via the BIGIoT 2014
Submission Page (TBD). The format of submitted papers
should follow the guidelines for the IEEE conference proceedings.
All papers will be carefully reviewed by at least three reviewers.
Papers should be no more than 6 pages. Accepted papers will be
published in the workshop proceedings of COMPSAC 2014, by the
IEEE Computer Society Press. At least one of the authors of each
accepted paper must register as a participant of the workshop and
present the paper at the workshop, in order to have the paper
published in the proceedings.
