The 10th International Workshop on Big Data and Cloud Performance
(DCPerf’20)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2020
April 27, 2020, Beijing, China
https://infocom2020.ieee-infocom.org/workshop-big-data-and-cloud-performance
The 10th Workshop on Big Data and Cloud Performance (DCPerf'20) will be
held
in conjunction with the IEEE INFOCOM'20 in Beijing, China on April 27,
2020.
The goal of DCPerf is to promote a community-wide discussion to identify
suitable strategies to enable effective and scalable performance
optimizations. Submissions on any topics of datacenter, cloud and bigdata
performance are welcome. Submission site will remain open until Jan. 8th,
2020.
Cloud data centers are the backbone infrastructure for tomorrow's
information
technology. Their advantages are efficient resource provisioning and low
operational costs for supporting a wide range of computing needs, be it in
business, scientific or mobile/pervasive environments. Because of the
rapid
growth in user-defined and user-generated applications and content, the
range
of services provided at data centers will expand tremendously and
unpredictably. Particularly, big data applications and services, e.g.,
social
and environmental sensing, and IoT monitoring, present a unique class of
challenges in the Cloud. In addition, the high volume of mixed workloads
and
the diversity of services offered render the performance optimization of
data
centers even more challenging. Moreover, important optimization criteria,
such
as scalability, reliability, manageability, power efficiency, area
density,
and operating costs, are often conflicting. The increasing mobility of
users
across geographically distributed areas adds another dimension to
optimizing
big data and cloud applications.
The goal of this workshop is to promote a community-wide discussion to
identify suitable strategies to enable effective and scalable performance
optimizations. We are looking for papers that present new techniques,
introduce new methodologies, propose new research directions, or discuss
strategies for resolving open performance problems for hosting big data
analytics in the cloud.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Big data applications and services
- Emerging IoT applications
- Data flow management
- Processing platforms
- Empirical studies
- Cloud systems
- Novel architectures
- Resource allocation
- Content distribution
- Evaluation/modeling methodology
- Big data and cloud performance
- Cost/pricing design
- Power/energy management
- Reliability/dependability
- Performance evaluation/modeling
- Big data in the cloud
- Intra/Inter communication
- Network protocols
- Security
- Real-time analytics
