Call for Research and Industry Papers
Big data and smart computing are emerging research fields that have been drawing much attention from diverse disciplines including computer science, information technology, and social sciences. 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 among researchers, developers, and users from academia, business and industry. Following the successes of the previous BigComp conferences in Bangkok, Thailand (2014), Jeju, Korea (2015), Hong Kong, China (2016), Jeju, Korea (2017), Shanghai, China (2018), Kyoto, Japan (2019), Busan, Korea (2020), Jeju, Korea (2021), Daegu, Korea (2022), Jeju, Korea (2023), Bangkok, Thailand (2024), Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia (2025), Guangzhou, China (2026), the 2027 IEEE International Conference on Big Data and Smart Computing (IEEE BigComp 2027) will be held in Fukuoka, Japan. IEEE BigComp 2027 invites authors to submit original research papers and as well original work-in-progress reports on big data and smart computing.
