Feb. 18 — With the emerging technology breakthrough in computing, networking, storage, mobility, and analytics, the boundary of systems is undergoing fundamental change and is expected to logically disappear. It is the time to rethink system design and management without boundaries towards software-defined ecosystems, the Big System. The basic principles of software-defined mechanisms and policies have witnessed great success in clouds and networks. We are expecting broader, deeper, and greater evolution and confluence towards holistic software-defined ecosystems.
BigSystem 2014 provides an open forum for researchers, practitioners, and system builders to exchange ideas, discuss, and shape roadmaps towards such big systems in the era of big data.

Paper Submission Guidelines
Authors are invited to submit technical papers of at most 8 pages in PDF format, including figures and references. Short position papers (4 pages) are also encouraged. Papers should be formatted in the ACM Proceedings Style (double column text using single spaced 10 point size on 8.5 x 11 inch page, http://www.acm.org/sigspublications/proceedings-templates) and submitted via EasyChair submission site. No changes to the margins, spacing, or font sizes as specified by the style file are allowed. Accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings, and will be incorporated into the ACM Digital Library. A few papers will be accepted as posters. Selected distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be considered for a special issue in a high quality journal.
