3rd IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing Technology and Science

Nov 29 - Dec 1, 2011, Divani Caravel

The third International Conference on Cloud Computing (CloudCom 2011) will take place in Athens, Greece. The "Cloud" is a natural evolution of distributed computing and of the widespread adaption of virtualization and SOA. In Cloud Computing, IT-related capabilities and resources are provided as services, via the Internet and on-demand, accessible without requiring detailed knowledge of the underlying technology.
The IEEE International Conference and Workshops on Cloud Computing Technology and Science, steered by the Cloud Computing Association, aim to bring together researchers who work on cloud computing and related technologies.

Topics include but are not limited to:

• Cloud-based Services and Education

•  Novel Programming Models for Large Computing

• Scalable Fault Resilience Techniques for Large Computing

• Autonomic Computing

• Data grid & Semantic web

• Cloud /Grid architecture

• Security and Risk

• Software as a Service (SaaS)

• Utility computing

• Virtualization technologies

• Web services

• Fault tolerance and reliability

• Hardware as a Service (HaaS)

• Auditing, monitoring and scheduling Power-aware Profiling, Modeling, and Optimizations

• Scalable Scheduling on Heterogeneous Architectures

• Integration of Mainframe and Large Systems

• Innovations in IP (esp. Open Source) Systems

• IT Service and Relationship Management

• New and Innovative Pedagogical Approaches

• MapReduce/Hadoop development

• Middleware frameworks

• Optimal deployment configuration

• Load balancing

• Peer to peer computing
