Big data is an emerging paradigm applied to datasets whose size is beyond the ability of commonly used software tools to capture, manage, and process the data within a tolerable elapsed time. Such datasets are often from various sources (Variety) yet unstructured such as social media, sensors, scientific applications, surveillance, video and image archives, Internet texts and documents, Internet search indexing, medical records, business transactions and web logs; and are of large size (Volume) with fast data in/out (Velocity). More importantly, big data has to be of high value (Value) and establish trust in it for business decision making (Veracity). Various technologies are being discussed to support the handling of big data such as massively parallel processing databases, scalable storage systems, cloud/stream computing platforms, and high performance/parallel computing platforms.

The 19th IEEE International Conference on Big Data Science and Engineering (BigDataSE-2025) is going to provide a prime international forum for researchers, industry practitioners and environment experts to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of Big Data and broadly related areas. The goal of this conference is to promote community-wide discussion for identifying advanced applications, technologies and theories for big data. We seek submissions of papers that invent novel techniques, investigate new applications, introduce advanced methodologies, propose promising research directions and discuss approaches for unsolved issues.

BigDataSE-2025 will be hosted in Guiyang, China. Guiyang, a vibrant mountain city embraced by lush forests and karst landscapes, offers an excellent venue for the conference while inviting exploration of its unique attractions. Visitors can discover renowned sites such as the ancient town of Qingyan, the serene Qianling Mountain Park, and the breathtaking natural wonders of Huaxi National Urban Wetland Park and Tianhe Tan Karst Geological Park.

Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers to BigDataSE-2025. Accepted papers will be submitted for possible inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements. The authors of selected best papers will be invited post conference to extend their contributions for special issues of prestigious journals to be planned in conjunction with the conference.
