Proceedings of the 6th ACM India Computing Convention

For the past five years, Compute, the annual conference organized by various ACM Chapters in India, has provided an excellent forum for computer science and information technology researchers - from both academia and industry - to present and share their work. These meetings have enabled and nurtured many symbiotic relationships between academia and industry and benefited the IT industry, entrepreneurs, investors and academia. This year, Compute, in its sixth edition as an ACM India event, is being hosted by ACM Student Chapter, VIT university. We are witnessing an explosive growth of digital content fuelled by the internet, and more recently, by the unprecedented proliferation of information content across diverse computing platforms. This explosive growth has led to a significant increase in the complexity of today's information needs, computing needs and security needs.The Compute conference intends to explore the practical implications and desiderata for dealing with the increased complexity of information, computing and security needs for the next generation of enterprises and consumers. The aim of this conference is to bring together researchers, practitioners, technology market movers, and thought leaders, with a view to advance the state of the art, and the state of the practice in applied research in areas of information management, scalable computing and information security. We believe that these advances will serve as a catalyst in leveraging ICT for the betterment of the society.
