The 2017 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (IEEE Big Data 2017) continued the success of the previous IEEE Big Data conferences. It provided a leading forum for disseminating the latest results in Big Data Research, Development, and Applications.
It solicited high-quality original research papers (and significant work-in-progress papers) in any aspect of Big Data with emphasis on 5Vs (Volume, Velocity, Variety, Value and Veracity), including the Big Data challenges in scientific and engineering, social, sensor/IoT/IoE, and multimedia (audio, video, image, etc.) big data systems and applications.
