Dear colleagues,

We have 1 workshop with an extended deadline due on Jan 26, 2018. It's called 
Recent Advances on Security, Privacy, Big Data and Internet of Things. Date and 
venue are 19 - 21 March, 2018 - Funchal, Madeira, Portugal . See 
http://iotbds.org/SPBDIoT.aspx for details and you can submit there. There are 
opportunities to to be selected by high quality journals. If submitters have a 
good journal, they can also compete in High Quality Journal (HJQ) Forum 
http://www.iotbds.org/HQJForum.aspx. Many thanks.

Thanks an regards,

Victor

SCOPE

In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has grown at an exponential pace 
solving complex problems in different disciplinary fields such as healthcare, 
finance, business, transportation, etc. However, these innovations are not 
without their drawbacks. Many challenges related to Security, Privacy, 
Connectivity, Big Data Analytics, Intelligent Analysis, Compatibility, 
Standards, etc. remain. 
Security is a crucial issue on the Internet, and it is probably the most 
significant challenge for the IoT. The Internet of Things (IoT) opens up new 
vulnerabilities for both security and privacy. Smart buildings and smart 
cities, for example, will collect and process data for millions of individuals. 
Industrial systems, which were never intended to be linked via common 
protocols, are recognized as suddenly being open to security threats that can 
limit service availability and possibly cause considerable damage. Autonomous 
systems allowed to operate with minimal oversight are ripe targets for 
cyber-attacks. Data stored and processed in confidence in the cloud may be 
subject to exfiltration, leading to public embarrassment or the exposure of 
proprietary information.  Ransomware has emerged in the public consciousness 
after multiple high-profile attacks, and many experts forecast that it will 
become a major threat to IoT and critical infrastructure in the very near 
future.

Of course, Big Data is the crucial mean for plagiarizing valuable actionable 
information quickly and effectively from the IoT tsunami. Machine learning 
techniques are usually used to effectively synthesize (big) data and extracts 
meaning from (big) data traversing from things/devices to the edge/fog an to 
the cloud using different techniques such as regression analysis, 
classification, clustering, decision trees and random forests, support vector 
machines, reinforcement learning, and deep learning.
In order to succeed in IoT, multidisciplinary research is needed, in addition 
to collaboration between academia and industry. This workshop will bring 
researchers and industrial partners together to examine and report 
state-of-the-art research on recent advances in the IoT era such as Big Data 
analytics, Machine Learning, and security.
