Big data and smart computing are emerging research fields that have
recently drawn much attention from computer science and information
technology as well as from social sciences and other disciplines. The
goal of the International Conference on Big Data and Smart Computing
(BigComp), initiated by KIISE (Korean Institute of Information
Scientists and Engineers), is to provide an international forum for
exchanging ideas and information on current studies, challenges,
research results, system developments, and practical experiences in
these emerging fields. Following the successes of the previous BigComp
conferences in Bangkok, Thailand (2014), Jeju, Korea (2015), Hong Kong,
China (2016), Jeju, Korea (2017), the 2018 International Conference on
Big Data and Smart Computing (BigComp 2018) will be held in Shanghai,
China. The conference is co-sponsored by IEEE and KIISE. BigComp 2018
invites authors to submit original research papers and original
work-in-progress reports on big data and smart computing.
