two or three pc members. Submitting a paper to the symposium means that if
the paper is accepted, at least one author should register to CGC2013 and
attend the conference to present the paper.

Publications:
All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by IEEE
Computer Society (EI indexed). Selected papers will be invited to special

Concurrency and Computing: Practice and Experience
Journal of Network and Computer Applications
Personal and Ubiquitious Computing
Journal of Systems and Software

Introduction:
Social network analysis and cloud computing are two of the most exciting
new trends in the recent developments of information technology. As the new
generation computing paradigm, cloud enables computing resources to be
provided as IT services in a pay-as-you-go fashion with high efficiency and
effectiveness. With the popularity of social software as well as the fast
development of cloud and other high-performance computing infrastructures,
the outcome of social network analysis is becoming more and more
attractive. However, information privacy and security issues are major
challenges in both these areas. This symposium aims at providing a forum
for researchers, practitioners and developers from different background
areas such as distributed computing, social computing, information security
and privacy protection areas to exchange the latest experience, research
ideas and synergic research and development on fundamental issues and
applications about security and privacy issues in cloud environments and
social networks. The symposium solicits high quality research results in
all related areas.

Topics:
The objective of this symposium is to invite authors to submit original
manuscripts that demonstrate and explore current advances in all aspects of
security and privacy in cloud computing environments. The symposium
solicits novel papers on a broad range of topics, including but not limited
to:

Security and privacy in Big Data management
Application of modern cryptography in cloud and social networks
Emerging threats in cloud-based services
Multi-tenancy related security/privacy issues
