Preface

Preface/Introduction The quest for knowledge has become part of national main agenda. In line with the country’s aspiration to enhance research and development in the country, UniMAP has been proactively involved and initiating programs and events, which would encourage high impact research encompassing various fields of expertise. The Centre of Excellence Geopolymer and Green Technology (CEGeoGTech) has been playing a significant role in this quest by taking up this challenge. Thus, one of the initiatives grabbed by the Green Advanced Computing and Technology (GREAT), CEGeoGTech is in organizing this conference itself, which provides a fine platform for knowledge sharing and research ideas exchange in the field of Big Data, Cloud Computing, Green and Sustainable Computing, Technology Science and Management in Sports. This is indeed an opportune moment to strengthen the bond among researchers and professionals from the academics, the industries and the public sectors in sharing new ideas, and in collaborating future research activities. The importance of interaction and networking among peers are the inspiration of this joint conference. I would like to congratulate the organizing committee and all parties involved for their sheer dedication and tireless effort in making this joint conference a great success. I hope that all participants will have a productive and pleasant conference.
