The 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Big Data and IoT Security
in Smart Computing

<CALL FOR PAPERS>

Smart computing aims at improving quality of life and experience in modern
society represents the next wave of computing. Key technologies
contributing to the realization of smart connected communities include
sensing, IoTs, mobile and pervasive computing, cyberphysical-social
systems, big data, machine learning, data analytics, social and cognitive
computing. Smart computing help solve a wide variety of societal
challenges related to transportation, energy, healthcare, finance,
disaster management, and so on.
At the core of all such systems and applications, critical issues are
security privacy, reliability, resiliency, and robustness. Indeed to boost
the development of big data applications in smart computing, data security
and data traceability as well as privacy are extremely important. For
example, data security such as secure computation with fully homomorphic
encryption and data traceability with both proof of storage and
attribute-based encryption become indispensable.

After successful 1st IEEE International Workshop on Big Data and IoT
Security in Smart Computing (IEEE BITS2017) in Hong Kong, the 2nd
workshop, IEEE BITS2018, will be held focussing on theories and
implementations on secure computing and secure data management in
Cloud/IoT environment. BITS is a full-day workshop that is going to be
organized in conjunction in conjunction with The 4th IEEE International
Conference on Smart Computing (SMARTCOMP2018) on 18-20 June, 2018.
The topics to be addressed at BITS2018 will include, but not limited to,
theoretical or practical aspects of big data and IoT security and privacy
in smart computing and cyberphysical systems. Papers describing experience
on real prototype implementations are also welcome. Submissions should be
targeted to one of the following sub-topics:

- Anonymity for big data
- Cryptology for big data (Fully Homomorphic Encryption, Proof of Storage,
Attributebased Encryption, etc.)
- Computer architecture to speed-up secure computation
- Cloud security (Security and privacy policies)
- Data traceability for big data
- Distributed systems security
- Government funded projects in the area of data security and data
traceability
- Legal study for handling big data
- Privacy risk assessment
- Secure computation for big data
- Secure information flow
- Security management
- Trust, security, privacy, and data provenance issues in Smart Computing
- Security and privacy issues in various smart computing applications such
as transportation, energy, environmental, smart city, healthcare, and
social media
