mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:#222222">Cloud is a virtual computing resource, which realizes self-maintenance and management, usually in the form of some large server cluster,
including computing servers, storage servers, bandwidth resources, etc. Cloud computing is the fusion and development of grid computing, distributed computing, parallel computing, utility computing, network storage technologies, virtualization, load balancing
and other traditional computer technologies and network technology. Virtualization, dynamicity and scalability, the distributed mass data storage and management, as well as flexible service, are the main technologies of cloud computing. There are still many
challenges in cloud systems and platform, cloud computing, database, virtualization, reuse and elasticity problems. <br>
<br>
Big data overall architecture consists of three layers: data storage, data processing and data analysis. Data storage layer stores complex type and mass data, data processing layer realizes real-time processing of massive data, and only through data analysis
layer, smart, in-depth and valuable information are got. When talking about big data, one thinks first to the 4V characteristics of big data, namely Volumes, Variety, Velocity, and Veracity. Big data processing key technology generally includes: data acquisition,
data pre-processing, data storage and data management, data analysis and mining, big show and application (big data retrieval, data visualization, big data applications, data security, etc.). <br>
<br>
The IEEE International Conference on Cloud and Big Data Computing is a premier forum for researchers, practitioners, developers and users who are interested in cloud computing and big data to explore new ideas, techniques and tools, as well as to exchange experience.
Besides the latest research achievements. This conference also covers innovative commercial data management systems, innovative commercial applications of cloud computing and big data technology, and experience in applying recent research advances to real-world
problems. After the success of IEEE CBDCom 2015 in Beijing, China, and CBDCom 2016 in Toulouse, France, CBDCom 2017 will be the third edition of the lnternational Conference.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size: 9.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Big Data overall architecture consists of three layers: data storage, data processing and data analysis. "Cloud" is virtual computing resources, which realize self-maintenance and management, usually
in the form of some large server cluster, including computing servers, storage servers, band-width resources and so on. Today, big data, together with advances in cloud computing techniques, brings big opportunities and transformative potential for various
sectors such as enterprises and industry manufacturing. CBDCom 2017 calls for workshops and special sessions which will complement the research topics of the Cloud and Big Data Computing.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size: 9.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Workshop/Special Session organizers are responsible for forming program committees, circulating call for papers, organizing submission and review as well as planning the final program. IEEE CBDCom
2017 Workshop/Special Session Co-chairs will assist in organizing workshops and ensure their quality and success. The registration fees for workshops/special sessions will be determined by the main conference and will be paid to the conference directly. The
conference will provide workshop/special session facilities. Workshops/Special Sessions should strictly follow the important dates. The paper submission deadline could be after that of the main conference to allow workshops to pick up some good papers submitted
to the main conference. However, sufficient time (5-7 weeks), should be allocated for peer reviews. Each paper should be reviewed by at least three experts in the corresponding areas.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
