Overview
The Tenth edition of the IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing in Emerging Markets (CCEM) offers an ideal platform for innovators, researchers and students on Cloud computing and its associated technology areas and applications - these have emerged as a dominant and transformational paradigm influencing many institutions and industry-sectors such as Health, Governance, Banking, Finance, Telecommunications, Education, Retail, Energy, Utilities, and Transportation. Innovations in this spans a number of areas including virtualization, networking, storage, security, management of cloud services – hybrid & on-premise, efficient interoperable cloud architectures, as well as design of cloud applications and services. This transformation has great implications for emerging markets & Nations, in their adoption of cloud computing, combine cloud computing, social media and mobile technologies to introduce unique services that can transform the lives of billions, drive much larger scale of adoption & challenge existing price points, while presenting unique challenges in areas such as security, data privacy and user interfaces to cloud computing.
This highly focused IEEE CCEM-2021 is targeted at potential participants planning to submit their research papers, techno-business plan showcase (with VC Elevator pitch Competition) or student-project-showcase (with proof-of-concepts competition). We encourage proposal submissions for innovative cloud-based-systems in the world of BigData, AI, ML/DL & IoT that address emerging market problems as well as solutions from it for the World. The conference participants, if selected based on their submission, get an opportunity to present their ideas and obtain professional feedback as well as mentoring in an encouraging and nurturing environment. Certificates and cash awards will be given for the three most innovative proposals submitted across these three areas viz., (1) Research-paper (2) Student- Project Showcase and (3) Technobiz-plan Showcase, while the Research Students Thesis Mini-Symposium presenters and the Tutorials Speakers would be recognized with Certificates.
This year the event is hosted from New Jersey, USA, as a Hybrid Conference. The participation can either be physically from Somerset, NJ, USA, or virtually from anywhere in the world.

CALL FOR TECHNICAL RESEARCH PAPERS:
We invite Research papers submissions on all topics relevant to Cloud Computing in Emerging Markets as listed above. Papers should typically include a clear description of the problem being addressed, overview of and comparison to related work, the theoretical framework/model proposed by the authors, experimentation details and the experimental results, and conclusions. Papers will be reviewed by an international program committee which will ensure that only high-quality papers with originality and novelty are accepted for presentation in the conference.
The Papers can be either
- A full research paper of maximum 8 pages with complete and substantial research outcomes.
- A short research paper of 4 pages that is complete but discussing a limited contribution.
The short paper track also provides authors to present good engineering work or negative results that will otherwise not qualify to meet the stringent guidelines of a full research paper.
IEEE CCEM has adopted a double-blind reviewing process. Author names and affiliations should not appear in the paper. Authors should make a reasonable effort not to reveal their identities through information contained in the paper; authors’ prior work should be referred to in the third person. Submissions that violate these requirements will be rejected without review.
Please submit your Technical Research Papers, via Easychair for CCEM 2021 EasyChair
Please follow the paper/proposal template mandatorily as mentioned in the above template. The selected full and short research papers will be published as part of the conference proceedings which can be indexed through IEEE Xplore. The conference will publicly announce the following awards.
Awards in this category
- IEEE TCSVC - The Best Student Research Paper - Winner.
- The Best Student Research Paper - Runner Up.
CALL FOR TECHNOBIZPLAN SHOWCASE PROPOSALS:
