IEEE BigData Congress 2013

Special Session on BigData Quality, Security and Privacy

Session Chair: Lionel Brunie (INSA-Lyon, France)

****************************************************************************

BigData research has unveiled the potential of huge data stores for many
business applications. For the research community dealing with data
protection and secure data communication, however, Big Data equals big risk.

The security, privacy and quality implications for collecting, storing and
utilizing BigData are many-fold.  In BigData environments, the sheer volume
of data being collected and stored is often too large for organizations to
sift through it and determine the sensitive nature of a particular data
item. 

As big data environments rapidly expand, the quantity and size of opaque
objects that need to be properly managed also increases. For this reason,
new techniques are needed to (i) assess the quality, and (ii) transparently
encrypt blocks big data stored in the cloud or on premises. Such solutions
must work while maintaining the highest levels of data availability and
performance. 

This session will foster an understanding of the open issues, give
visibility on ground-breaking work in progress and reveal innovative
techniques for managing emerging data technologies.

The Special Session on BigData quality, security and privacy, to be held in
the framework of the IEEE BigData Congress 2013
(http://www.ieeebigdata.org/2013/)  encourages submissions of last minute,
work-in-progress papers on the following topics:

- Enhanced Security Capabilities for BigData Systems

- Managing User Access in a BigData Environment

- Policy & Governance in a BigData Environment

- Migrating BigData to the Cloud

- Protecting Citizen & Business Privacy in the Era of BigData

- BigData and Security Analytics

- BigData and Assurance: Beyond PCI and HIPAA

- User Profiling in BigData Environments

- De-anonymization using BigData Analysis Tools

- Trust and Reputation Management in BigData Environments

- BigData and Differential Privacy

- Data Provenance in BigData Environments

Important Dates

- Full Paper Submission Due Date: April 27, 2013 Extended!

- Decision Notification (Electronic): May 4, 2013

- Camera-Ready Copy Due Date & Pre-registration Due: May 11, 2013

Paper Submission

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are
not being considered in another forum. 

The Special Session will accept full papers (6 pages) and position papers (4
pages). Papers are REQUIRED to be formatted using the IEEE Proceedings
template (http://conferences.computer.org/scc/2013/IEEECS_CPS_8.5x11x2.zip )
in Word or Latex
(http://conferences.computer.org/scc/2013/IEEECS_CPS_LaTeX_Letter_2Col.zip).


 

The submitted papers can only be in the format of PDF or WORD. At least one
author of each accepted paper is required to attend the conference and
present the paper. Electronic submission of manuscripts (in PDF or Word
formats) is required. Submissions should include paper title, abstract, name
of authors, their affiliations, and emails addresses.

Please use the BigData 2013 Research Track Paper Submission System at 

http://www.confhub.com/conf.php?id=271 to submit your research papers to
BigData 2013 Special Session. You can select one or two of the research
topics when you submit your paper in the online submission system so it will
be reviewed by the right subject matter experts.
