Welcoming Message

 from General Co-Chairs

Distinguished guests, professors, scholars and colleagues：

 

After two years, we meet in the conference again. Welcome to Nanjing, welcome to IEEE CCIS2018.

 

As the past four times, the conference will provide us a good opportunity for exchanging our ideas and opinions on cloud computing and intelligence systems. And it is also a good chance for us to strengthen our friendship. I hope everyone can enjoy these.

 

Thanks to the best efforts of the sponsors and organizers, the conference has attracted even broader attentions. There are over 200 submissions which have been accepted in the proceedings. Six outstanding scholars are invited to attend the conference as the keynote speaker.

 

Since we started the conference of IEEE CCIS in 2010, we have tightly followed the new trends of the cutting edge technologies and hot topics in the areas of Machine learning, Computational intelligence, Evolutionary Computation, Big data computing Systems, Computer vision, Pattern recognition, Deep learning, etc... This has made the conference attractive and fruitful. This time, papers on big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning are much highlighted, reflecting the hot directions of current researches.

 

Dear friends, being the capital of Jiangsu, the second largest city in the East China region, with an administrative area of 6,600 km2(2,500 sq mi) and a total population of 8,270,500as of 2016.I hope that our guests learn and enjoy more about the city by this chance.

Welcoming Message from Program Committee Chairs

Distinguished professors, dear colleagues：

It is my great pleasure to serve as the Program Committee Chair of 2018 IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing and Intelligence Systems (IEEE CCIS 2018). I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the people volunteering for the success of this conference. Special thanks go to NJUPT staffs for their devoted support.

It is really meaningful that NJUPT hosts IEEE CCIS 2018 after the big successes of IEEE CCIS 2010, IEEE CCIS 2012, IEEE CCIS 2014, and IEEE CCIS 2016. While IEEE CCIS covers the most important areas in "Cloud Computing and Intelligence Systems" for the development of our society, this conference also provides a high-quality forum for researchers and practitioners to present their latest theoretical and practical works. Many challenging issues will be discussed by experts around the globe. I am very delightfully to see so many well-known world-class researchers get together here, giving keynote speeches or presented their excellent research results. I trust that IEEE CCIS 2018 will also be a priceless opportunity for all of us to exchange ideas and make new friends.

 

I truly believe that the latest technologies discussed here and human networks formed from here will benefit us for many years to come. I am looking forward to seeing you in Nanjing.
