Special Issue on Advances in Big Data Analytics for Management
http://www.comsoc.org/tnsm/cfp/si-bdm
(Submissions due: 3 May 2017)
===========================================================================
Cloud and network analytics can harness the immense stream of operational data from clouds and networks, and can perform analytics processing to improve reliability, configuration, performance, and security management. In particular, we see a growing trend towards using statistical analysis and machine learning to improve operations and management of IT systems and networks.
Research is therefore needed to understand and improve the potential and suitability of Big Data analytics in the context of systems and network management. This will not only provide deeper understanding and better decision making based on largely collected and available operational data, but present opportunities for improving data analysis algorithms and methods on aspects such as accuracy and scalability. Moreover, there is an opportunity to define novel platforms that can harness the vast operational data and advanced data analysis algorithms to drive management decisions in networks, data centers, and clouds.
IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management (IEEE TNSM) is a premier journal for timely publication of archival research on the management of networks, systems, services and applications. Following the success of TNSM special issue on Big Data Analytics for Management (September 2016), this special issue of TNSM will focus on "Advances in Big Data Analytics for Management," presenting recent, emerging approaches and technical solutions that can exploit Big Data and analytics in management solutions. We welcome submissions addressing the underlying challenges of Big Data Analytics for Management and presenting novel theoretical or experimentation results. Survey papers that offer a perspective on related work and identify key challenges for future research will be considered as well.
