Modern research is becoming data-intensive. Data-intensive refers to volume, velocity, heterogeneity, and complexity of data as well as the intricate interactions among combinations of research objectives, models, users, and information systems that deal with these data. Increasingly, scientific discovery will be powered by advanced computing capabilities that help researchers explore, manipulate, analyze, visualize, and synthesize big datasets.Computation is a fundamental element of modern research. Information Technology (IT) professionals use algorithms to design experiments, simulate real-world operations, analyze scientific problems, and suggest practical solutions. The speed at which any given scientific discipline advances will depend on how well its researchers collaborate with one another and with IT professionals in areas such as cloud computing, workflow management, databases, modeling, analytics, and others. As a result, computation changes the role of IT professionals from service providers to collaborators whose input is critical to the success of the research. Through their understanding of technology and best practices, IT professionals contribute substantive knowledge to the advancement of research methodology and modern science.This presentation discusses a new paradigm of scientific discovery based on data-intensive research and offers insights into how it can be realized through a few real-world research projects at the Agricultural Research Service.

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 5th International Workshop on Information Networking and Wireless Communications (INWC 2015), which will be held in conjunction with the 18th International Conference on Network-Based Information Systems (NBiS 2015) at Tamkang University, Taipei, Taiwan from September 2 to September 4, 2015. This international workshop is a forum for sharing ideas and research work in the emerging areas of information networking and wireless communications. Nowadays, information networks are developing very rapidly and evolving to heterogeneous networks. Thus, we have an increasing number of applications and devices. To optimize the communication in these heterogeneous systems, we need to propose and evaluate more complex schemes, algorithms and protocols for wired and wireless networks.

A warm welcome to COMPSAC 2015 Fast Abstract Track. This year’s Fast Abstract Track is composed of 4 regular sessions covering 21 papers. The track received a total of 21 articles as new submissions and some articles were forwarded from main conference tracks. We like to thank all program committee members for their contribution by providing timely feedback for the authors that enabled us to select papers after a second round of rigorous reviews by all the co-chairs.

The SIMICE 2015 Program Committee selected four papers to be presented in the workshop for researchers who have interest in the security and privacy aspects of identity management in the cloud environment. These contributions cover the mobile operating system, communications channels, and databases aspects in security and privacy enhancement for identity and personal information use in an untrusted environment. We hope these works will interest our colleagues in this field for more in-depth and extensive discussions paving the way to new research trends. We thank the involvement of all program committee members to review the submissions received and to select the final papers. We look forwards to a successful event of SIMICE 2015 and next SIMICE workshop.

In cloud computing, variability becomes a crucial ability of process-based cloud applications. Existing solutions either focused on modeling variability in the architectural model or tried to support dynamic variability management in implementation. An integrated approach that can inherit the virtues from both categories is expected. The paper aims to fill the gap by proposing a model-driven variability-based service composition approach. We propose VxUML to model the variability in the architecture model. Then, we define a set of model transformation rules to convert VxUML into VxBPEL (an extension to standard BPEL supporting variability at the implementation level). Finally, we implement a prototype tool, and present a case study to demonstrate the feasibility of our approach.

In addition to the traditional student program, starting in 2015, COMPSAC will conduct a competition among all the papers accepted by the Student Research Symposium. Based on an evaluation of the novelty and potential contribution of each study, a panel will determine the winners. An amount of USD $1,000 will be awarded for first place, followed by USD $800 for second place and USD $500 for third place. All winners will receive a certificate from COMPSAC. The main objective of this symposium is to provide students with useful guidance for completion of their dissertation research and for potential initiation of their research careers.
