Call for participation:
Cloud computing has recently emerged as one of the buzzwords in the
ICT industry. Several IT vendors are promising to offer storage,
application and computation hosting services, and provide coverage in
several continents, offering Service-Level Agreements (SLA) backed
performance and uptime promises for their services. While these
‘clouds’ are the natural evolution of traditional clusters and data
centers, they are distinguished by following a ‘utility’ pricing model
where customers are charged based on their utilisation of
computational resources, storage and transfer of data. These emerging
services have reduced the cost of computation, application hosting and
content storage and delivery by several orders of magnitude, however
there is significant complexity involved in ensuring applications,
services and data can scale when needed to ensure consistent and
reliable operation under peak loads.
The Cloud 2010 symposium is to be held in Melbourne,
Australia--building on the Cloud 2009 event held in Shanghai, China--
and aims at attracting researchers and practitioners involved in cloud
computing technologies in addition to those harnessing clouds for
their applications in various fields to maximise performance, minimise
cost and improve the scale of their endeavours.
The theme of Cloud 2010 is: "Applied Cloud Technologies for Business
and Consumer Applications"
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
* Novel architectural models for cloud computing
* Novel applications of cloud computing
* Cloud resource management
* Innovative Cloud Pricing Models
* Innovative Cloud Service Models
* Cloud Brokers
* Data Security and Jurisdiction in the Cloud
* New parallel / concurrent programming models for cloud computing
* Scientific computing in the cloud
* Workflows for cloud computing
* Storage as a Service
* Platform as a Service
* Infrastructure as a Service
* Content Delivery Networks using Storage Clouds
* Interoperability / portability of applications and data between
different cloud providers
* Reliability of applications and services running on the cloud
* Performance monitoring for cloud applications
Cloud 2010 will be held in conjunction with the The 10th IEEE/ACM
International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Grid Computing during
May 17-20, 2010, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
