CloudTech’20 will provide a high-level, international forum to present state-of-the-art research results, address new challenges, and discuss trends and opportunities related with all aspects and applications of Cloud Technology; Artificial Intelligence; Big data; High Performance Computing, Internet of Things.

The target public of CloudTech’20 includes all scientists, researchers, professionals, industry and government, particularly, researchers, policy-makers, engineers and students interested in all issues related to the topics above.

Next to the regular tracks we have some special sessions related to innovative applications with Artificial Intelligence, deep and machine learning, Blockchain and a demo-session for innovations achieved through prototyping and simulation.

Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished research papers. Submitted manuscripts will be limited to 8 (IEEE Proceedings style) pages and required to be formatted using theIEEE Proceedings template. Please follow the IEEE Computer Society Press Proceedings Author Guidelines to prepare your papers. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to attend the conference and present the paper. Submissions should include paper title, abstract, names of authors, their affiliations, and emails addresses.

The full papers should be submitted in PDF format to the CloudTech’20 EasyChair online submission website:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cloudtech20

If you can not upload paper or have other problems in using the EASYCHAIR system, you can choose to submit by sending email toCloudTech20@macc.ma(with the subject: CloudTech’20).

We invite the submission of original work that is related (but are not limited) to the topics below.
