*SCOPE*


Cyberspace has changed our daily lives. To avoid system fragility and
defend against vulnerabilities exploration from cyber attacker, various
cyber security techniques and tools have been developed. This is the major
focus of CSCloud 2015.


The emerging paradigm of cloud computing provides a new way to address the
constraints of limited energy, capabilities, and resources. With big data
processing, computation, distribution, and storage capability, cloud
computing has been embraced by researchers and practitioners as a new
approach that has the potential for a profound impact in our daily life and
world economy. Cloud computing is the second focus of CSCloud 2015. This
includes cloud models, heterogeneous architecture, resource allocation,
load balance, multimedia, and QoS, etc.


The objective of CSCloud 2015 is to provide a prime international forum for
scientists, researchers, and industrial practitioners to discuss and
exchange their new ideas, novel results, work in progress and experience on
all aspects of cyber security and cloud computing. Topics of particular
interest include, but are not limited to:

   - Cyber Security in New Paradigms
   - Cyber hacking, next generation fire wall
   - Cyber monitoring, incident response
   - Digital forensics
   - Big data security, Database security
   - Social engineering, insider threats, advance spear phishing
   - Cyber threat intelligence
   - Security and fault tolerance for embedded or ubiquitous systems
   - Cloud security
   - Tele-health security
   - Sensor network security
   - Embedded networks and sensor network optimizations
   - Cloud computing and networking models
   - Heterogeneous architecture for cloud computing
   - Dynamic resource sharing algorithm for cloud computing
   - Load balance for cloud computing
   - Cloud-based audio/video streaming techniques
   - MapReduce
   - Visualization
   - Cloud-based real-time multimedia techniques
   - Mobile cloud computing
   - Green cloud computing
   - Quality of Service (QoS) improvements techniques
   - Case studies for various applications
   - Cyber Security in emergent technologies, infrastructures and
   applications



*SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS*


Submissions should include abstract, 5-10 keywords, and the e-mail address
of the corresponding author and be in PDF format. Each submission must not
exceed 6 pages in the IEEE 8.5’’ x 11’’ two-column format with 10-12 point
font (Template: DOC or LaTeX), including tables and figures. Each accepted
paper needs at least one author to register in the conference. Each
submission should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the submission
be accepted, at least one of the authors must attend the conference to
present the work in order that the accepted paper can be put into digital
library. The final version of an accepted paper will be limited to 10 pages
in IEEE proceeding format. Please submit papers in PDF format through the
CSCloud web site. Manuscript should be prepared following the IEEE Computer
Society Press Proceedings. Author Guidelines that can be found at:


https://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html


The accepted papers have to be presented orally at the conference and will
be published by IEEE Computer Society Press (indexed by EI) and included in
IEEE Digital Library. Selected best papers will be recommended to the
special issues of well-regarded SCI journals.
