MDSP 2015 - Third International workshop on Massive Data Storage and Processing (MDSP 2015)

3rd International Workshop on Massive Data Storage and Processing (MDSP 2015) will be held in conjunction with DASFAA 2015, in Hanoi, Vietnam, April 20-23, 2015.
Description
Internet companies and traditional organizations store massive data sets, such as blogs on the Web, transactions performed at Web-commerce sites, data generated by telecom switches, health care systems, and bioinformatics. To mine the scientific or commercial values hidden behind such big data, large-scale data processing techniques are required. Due to the rapid growth of data size, efficient data storage and analysis become more and more challenging. They require innovative storage technologies, scalable processing system, and operation schemas capable of managing PB-scale data.
This MDSP 2015 workshop intends to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to discuss cutting edge research on massive data storage and processing, such that the interactions among the experts of these areas can be promoted and new interdisciplinary technologies can be developed. The scope of the workshop includes both data storage and processing techniques involving massive data, as well as techniques for more specialized problems in, e.g., scientific computing, database, business intelligence, statistics, and health care.
The workshop welcomes various different kinds of papers that could optimize the performance aspects of existing data storage and processing. The papers may address issues including novel architectures for massive data storage and processing, storage networking, storage virtualization, storage for complex computing, data pre-processing, Job scheduling for computing cluster, data scheduling. Papers of applied research, industrial experience reports, work-in-progress and vision papers with different criteria for each category are also solicited. The best presented paper will receive the BEST PAPER AWARD.

Submission Guidelines
Submissions must not exceed 10 pages in LNCS (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) format and must be in PDF format. Authors should avoid the use of non-English fonts to avoid problems with printing and viewing the submissions. All accepted papers MUST follow strictly the instructions for LNCS Authors. Springer’s LNCS site offers style files and information.
Submissions must not have been published previously and must not be under review for publication while being considered for MDSP. This applies also to papers with significantly overlapping contributions. Authors are advised to interpret these limitations strictly and to contact the PC chairs in case of doubt.
MDSP 2015 submissions are reviewed following the single blind review process, meaning, you need not hide authors' names and affiliations. Each accepted paper must be accompanied by at least one full registration regardless of the status of the registering author, and an author must present the paper at the conference. Otherwise, the paper will be removed from the proceedings and LNCS digital library.
Please submit your papers using the following submission site: MDSP2015
