Cloud Intelligence

The submission deadline of the 2nd International Workshop on Cloud Intelligence (Cloud-I 2013) has been extended to June 10, 2013.

As last year, Cloud-I’s proceedings will be published by ACM ICPS. The best accepted papers will be invited to submit extended versions to a special issue of Information Systems.

Cloud-I 2013′s date has been confirmed on August 26.

Check it out here!

The 2nd International Workshop on Cloud Intelligence (Cloud-I 2013) will be collocated with the 39th International Conference on Very Large Databases (VLDB 2013), Riva del Garda, Trento, Italy.

• Submission deadline is January 15, 2013.
• Extended versions of previous conference papers are welcome if they meet Information Systems’ standard requirements on the amount of new material (30% new material).
• The submission website for Information Systems is located at: http://ees.elsevier.com/is/default.asp
• To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for inclusion into the Cloud-I special issue, it is important that authors select SI: Cloud Intelligence when they reach the “Article Type” step in the submission process.

The submission deadline Information Systems’ special issue on Cloud Intelligence has been extended to January 15, 2013.

Both the workshop and its 2012 contents are online at DBLP.

With the increasing success of cloud computing, cloud business intelligence “as a service” offerings have arisen, both from cloud start-ups and major BI industry vendors. Beyond porting BI features into the cloud, which already implies numerous issues (e.g., BigData/NoSQL database modeling and storage, data localization, data marketplaces, security and privacy, performance, cost and usage models…), this trend also poses new, broader challenges for making data analytics available to small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs), non-governmental organizations, web communities (e.g., supported by social networks), and even the average citizen. This vision requires new integration and deployment models. For example, some deployments would benefit from an integrated database of private and open data.

Following the Cloud-I workshop at VLDB 2012 (http://eric.univ-lyon2.fr/cloud-i/), the aim of this special issue of Information Systems is to attract the best papers related to the emerging field of Cloud Intelligence, with respect to the non-exhaustive list of topics below.
